Hyundai with Genesis brand is planning to launch 2021 electric car models with the world´s first wireless charging technology.

 

                  Genesis’ electric vehicle JW (project name) was seen in South Korea last month 

Genesis brand ( a Hyundai subsidiary) is attempting to become the first in the global electric vehicle industry to incorporate wireless charging capability into its electric cars that will be launched in 2021.

This capability helps the charger to recognize the electric car and assists the car with parking and charging at the same time.

Genesis is incorporating P&C technology into its first electric vehicles “eG80” and “JW (project name)” that will be launched in 2021. P&C technology is a technology that is able to verify the user and have payments made automatically just by plugging in a charging cable from either a fast or superfast charging station. It removes the complicated procedure of using a credit card or a corresponding card in order to go through an authentication process. It also supports “car pay”.

Also, the company plans to provide the industry’s first wireless charging technology as an option. This technology was developed along with WiTricity that is a leader when it comes to wireless charging of electric vehicles.

Considering the current level of this technology, the technology will be able to provide a speed of 6 to 8 kWh.

Because wireless charging requires a separate construction at the charging station, it is only offered as an option for upper trims. However, because standardization of wireless charging is currently taking place in Europe and the United States, it is expected that the technology will only be available locally starting from the second half of 2021.

Genesis is also working on home chargers specifically for its electric vehicles. It plans to develop 7 kW and 11 kW chargers, and they are expected to be applied to the company’s unconventional design.

“Wireless charging, P&C, and exclusive home chargers will be at the core of Genesis’ strategy in targeting the global electric vehicle market.” said one industry official. “Because the company’s goal is to target the global market, it is focusing heavily on raising the level of competition of its products and technologies.”

Regarding these new technologies, Genesis plans to introduce “eG80” and “JW” in the second quarter of 2021 and launch them in order by the end of 2021. JW particularly is based on Hyundai Motor Group’s first electric vehicle platform “E-GMP”. It is expected to provide optimal driving performance and have a shockingly large interior space that has never been seen before in gasoline cars.

Genesis’ image as a leader in electrification will be vastly improved when the company’s electric vehicles with P&C technology are launched in 2021.

Hyundai Motor Group stated that it cannot disclose any detailed technology or feature of its new electric vehicles that have yet to be released in advance.

Hyundai Motor Group is attempting innovative technologies that even Tesla has yet to attempt through the Genesis brand.

Although some automotive manufacturers such as Porsche are conducting pilot tests on this technology in the United States, they have yet to reach a level of commercialization.

Electric Vehicles in the Chilean cordillera overcome challenges .

Helmet , pedals and electric batteries. Seven vehicles don`t needed more the peculiar  Zero Challenge race , with which Chile seeks to promote the development of friendly urban transport environment.

The competition began last Friday. Participants toured hard road curves and slopes in Farellones , a town in the mountains of Chile.

The race continued yesterday in the port city of Valparaiso , with the Pacific Ocean beyond , and today continue through the streets of the capital.

One of the cars was dubbed " Vilti " which means falcon in kunza ethnic language , and is powered by electricity and human-powered .

Capsule shaped , upper door on three wheels , the driver drives through a gear lever which features similar to those of a bicycle.

" We want to propose a new alternative transportation, electric and hybrid cars in for one or two people, who are more like a motorcycle , as a new alternative for transport in the city," he told AFP ,Pablo Ahumada , coordinator of  Challenge Zero.

Most of the teams had competed in the first race of solar cars in Latin America , the Atacama Solar Challenge , which Chile hosted last year.

They belong to universities, such as U. Chile, the U. Catholic , or U. Federico Santa María , and resources also support companies to design their vehicles.

Before you begin, the organizers reviewed the cars of each team and their electric batteries sealed with plastic tape that competitors could not recharge during the race.

Also submitted to a blood alcohol test on drivers , who passed smoothly.

At first glance it is hard to imagine this kind of fragile and slow cars through the streets of big cities. But its creators say it will not be long for widespread use .

A total of sustainable seven electric cars   competed today at  cordillera  Los Andes and accomplished the first stage of "Zero Challenge" organized by the NGO Solar Route, which will continue this weekend with circuits in the city of Valparaiso and Santiago.

WorldWideTech & Science. Francisco De Jesús.

The TRIAC is an all-electric three-wheeled vehicle from Green Vehicles that puts the environmental and running cost advantages of electric vehicles within the reach of the average commuter thanks to its US$24,995 price point.

The TRIAC is capable of a top speed of 80mph and a range of 100 miles on a single charge.

Recharging is via a regular household outlet, taking around 16 hours for a 110-volt outlet, or five hours using a 220-volt connection.
