This week was busy on Survoltés. It must be said that the Beijing show was the scene of spectacular announcements on electric cars, with very attractive new models from BYD. Volkswagen took the opportunity to unveil a series of strong measures to survive. But unfortunately, bankruptcy is getting closer to Fisker.
It’s official: Fisker is preparing for bankruptcy, no longer buy electric cars from this brand
Fisker has just published a press release that is clear to say the least. The company could go bankrupt within the next 30 days if no alternative solution is found. The manufacturer’s electric cars are still on sale. Don’t buy the Fisker Ocean, even with the huge discount offered by the dealers.
To avoid disaster, Volkswagen is pulling out all the stops to solve the biggest problem with its electric cars
Volkswagen is taking advantage of the Beijing Motor Show to unveil its electric car battle plan. The German group unveils an electric car concept which will foreshadow future models, but also a whole new strategy for China. With, in particular, the arrival of a new architecture developed internally. Will this be enough to boost sales?
BYD unveils four electric cars for Europe
Tesla’s biggest competitor, BYD, took advantage of the Beijing show to unveil four new electric cars designed for Europe. On the program: the Yangwang U7. On the program for the most aerodynamic production car in the world: four engines, 1,300 horsepower and revolutionary suspension.
We continue with the Sea Lion 07 EV SUV, a rather high-end model currently reserved for the Chinese market but which would have its place in Europe given its technical characteristics. A real competitor to the Tesla Model Y.
The Denza Z9 GT is a new 100% electric sedan which seems to be directly inspired by the Porsche Panamera, but which will instead target high-performance electric sedans, starting with the Tesla Model S Plaid or the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT .
And we end with a new concept from BYD, the Ocean-M, foreshadowing an electric car tailor-made for Europe with the Mégane E-Tech in its sights.$
