Leapmotor Technology Senior Vice President, Cao Li, recently offered a glimpse of the upcoming B10/Lafa 5 Ultra, sharing real-world images of the vehicle on social media. The Lafa 5 Ultra is anticipated to be a high-performance variant of the standard Lafa 5, which is scheduled for launch on November 28. The more potent Ultra version is slated for a market debut in the second quarter of 2026. The Lafa 5 Ultra’s front fascia features an added front splitter and a prominent, outward-jutting front lip, finished in a sleek black gloss. Along the vehicle’s lower doors, new side skirts have been integrated, complementing the black wheels. The rear of the Lafa 5 Ultra is equipped with a sporty rear wing and a bold diffuser integrated into the lower bumper. While official details regarding the Lafa 5 Ultra’s interior and powertrain remain under wraps, the extended development timeline – with its launch pushed back by half a year compared to the standard Lafa 5 – suggests it will be more than just an aesthetic package. Industry observers quoted by Autohome speculate that the Ultra variant will indeed be a performance model, potentially featuring a dual-motor setup for superior power output. (CNC)

"Auf den Bildern ist trotz der noch recht starken Tarnung die charakteristische Linienführung, die für die G-Baureihe typisch ist, zu erkennen. Trotz der verkleinerten Abmessungen bleibt der kantige Auftritt erhalten, ergänzt durch markante Details, die auf eine eigenständige Designsprache hindeuten. Das Fahrzeug wirkt zugleich robust und kompakt. Mercedes-Designchef Gorden Wagener erklärte unlängst, die kleine G-Klassewerde eine weiterentwickelte Interpretation der bekannten Formensprache erhalten. Sie bleibe klar als Mitglied der G-Familie erkennbar, setze jedoch auf modernere Proportionen und eine jüngere Lichtsignatur. "Man kann die G-Linie nicht groß verändern – sie ist ikonisch", betonte Wagener. Die kompaktere Version solle dennoch etwas mehr Präzision und Dynamik in der Linienführung zeigen. "g-Klasse" mit klassischem ReserveradDie Fronthaube fällt recht kurz aus, die Scheinwerfer liegen wie beim großen Vorbild tief in der Schürze. Auf den Bildern gut zu erkennen: der LED-Tagfahrlicht-Kreis, der oben noch ganz vollständig geschlossen ist. Die Seitenansicht ist geprägt von kräftig ausgestellten Radkästen, kurzen Überhängen vorn und hinten sowie dem typischen dreiteiligen Fensterband, ohne durchgehende Fensterlinien. Es zeigen sich zudem die klassischen Bügelgriffe an den Türen. Am Heck dominiert die Reserveradhalterung, wie sie vom Vorbild bekannt ist. Tief darunter sitzen das eingezogene Kennzeichenfeld sowie rechts und links die schmalen Rückleuchten. Auch das typisch für die G-Baureihe bekannte aufgesetzte Dach findet sich beim kleinen Bruder wieder. Plattform des Baby-GLaut dem Mercedes-Technikchef Markus Schäfer, der zum 1.12.2025 das Unternehmen verlässt, basiert die neue Baby-G-Klasse auf einer eigenständigen Plattform mit klassischem Leiterrahmen. Die Architektur sei speziell für dieses Modell entwickelt und nutze nahezu ausschließlich eigene Komponenten. Damit sollte die Offroad-Tauglichkeit des großen Vorbilds erhalten bleiben. Fahrwerk und Reifendimensionen orientieren sich an der bekannten G-Klasse, dennoch handle es sich um eine vollständige Neuentwicklung. Eine Übernahme bestehender Pkw- oder SUV-Plattformen war laut Schäfer ausgeschlossen. Ziel war eine authentische Basis, die den hohen Ansprüchen an Geländegängigkeit gerecht wird. Auch die Karosseriestruktur ist weitgehend eigenständig aufgebaut und soll die charakteristische Stabilität der Baureihe sichern. "Little g" auch als HybridUnterdessen heißt es, die kleine G-Klasse kommt auf derselben MMA-Plattform wie der eben erst präsentierte CLA, mit 800-Volt-System und bis zu 320 kW Ladeleistung. Rund 500 Kilometer Reichweite sollen dem Mini-G zu Buche stehen. Dazu gesellt sich wohl auch der ebenfalls aus dem CLA bekannte Hybrid mit 1,5-Liter-Vierzylinder in unterschiedlichen Leistungsstufen. Allen Versionen gemein: das neue Betriebssystem MB.OS, das alle zentralen Fahrzeugfunktionen bündelt." (AM&S)

Hyundai vende lo stabilmento cinese di Chongqing alla Changan "Changan takes over former Hyundai factory in China Changan has taken over a Beijing Hyundai factory in Chongqing and will use it to produce vehicles for its Deepal brand in future. The main aim is to increase production capacity, as Changan is reaching its limits. The background to this is said to be the growth plans of Changan and Deepal. In 2024, production capacity was still at 2.25 million vehicles, but Changan’s sales target for 2025 is three million vehicles. According to The Economic Observer, Changan’s production is operating at 84 per cent capacity, which is a fairly good figure, and leaves little room for improvement. Beijing Hyundai, a Chinese joint venture between Hyundai and BAIC, announced the factory in Chongqing in 2015 as the joint venture’s fifth plant at the time and started production at the end of 2017. Just four years later, in December 2021, Beijing Hyundai had already shut down production at the plant, which cost over a billion dollars at the time – the plant’s capacity is 300,000 vehicles. Hyundai invested heavily in China several years ago, but the hoped-for success failed to materialise – Hyundai somewhat missed the boat when it came to the trend towards electric mobility in China, as the Hyundai EO, the Group’s first electric car designed exclusively for China, only went on sale this year. Initially, Hyundai and its sister brand Kia tried unsuccessfully to market electric versions of their combustion engine models in China. Since then, various plans have been made and then scrapped. Changan, which was ‘promoted’ to state-owned car manufacturer in China in the summer, is not the first domestic manufacturer to take over a poorly utilised joint venture factory: in 2021, Li Auto had already taken over a Beijing Hyundai plant in Beijing. And just this November, another Chinese manufacturer, Geely, took over a SAIC-GM plant in Shenyang in the northeastern Chinese province of Liaoning. Changan has big plans for its electric brand Deepal: with the S05 and S07, two electric SUVs are also set to enter the German market. " (elecdrive.net)

Esatto, prima parte del business sara come scrivi T, manutenzione delle vecchie prodotti Alpina di loro e poi una nuova seconda parte/ramo del business la produzione di piccole serie di automobili esclusivi (ancora su base BMW) sotto la nuova marca „Bovensiepen“ (https://www.bovensiepen.com/en/) guidata dal figlio Andreas.

Configuratore online….. Porsche Car Configurator

Lo stabilmento verrà demolita e sul sito sorgerà un complesso per la produzione di idrogeno verde.

….direi piuttosto che è una copia modica di una altra cinese….

A10 in Europa sara B03X (elEconomista.es)

…e in senso della qualita anni di luce davanti delle Maserati della stessa epoca che erano sempre macchine a qualita scarsa….

Se il rivenditore di pneumatici avesse ragione, tutti gli OEM farebbero qualcosa che non è consentito: montare pneumatici nuovi di zecca sulla linea di assemblaggio. L'affermazione è assurda.

Le vendite Porsche sono crollate soprattutto in Cina, forse con questa "faccia" cinese standardizzata riusciranno a recuperare terreno... ma resta comunque brutta… 🫣

eh si, ma in cifre assoluti un utile di 21Mio...non troppo esuberante 😂 (CNC)

Questa baracca statale funzionerebbe anche con metà del personale attuale, se fosse organizzata come un'azienda privata.

Fino adesso sembra che ca. 25000 hanno firmato un contratto per uscire dalla azienda durante i prossimi anni, di cui 75% (pre-) pensionamenti con il strumento „Altersteilzeit“ .

I 35.000 sono il numero concordato già lo scorso anno con i proprietari e il comitato aziendale. Dal 2024 al 2030, quindi un periodo di 6 anni e quindi il 4-5% all'anno, che corrisponde alla normale razionalizzazione/aumento dell'efficienza annuale. Questo rapporto può essere tradotto in un aumento corrispondente del volume di produzione (cosa attualmente irrealistica) oppure, se il volume ristagna, il personale deve essere ridotto di una quantità pari a questo aumento di efficienza, un processo del tutto normale.

…eh si e chiaro, 430Nm da zero…. 😁

Si.

I Nevera totali venduti fino adesso sono ca. 50, ma Rimac in primis e engineering per terzi, componenti sviluppati o programmati di loro sono in moltissime bev europei.

Rimac e interessato a comprare i 45% della JV Rimac-Bugatti che oggi sono in mano della Porsche AG, non la Porsche stessa. Acquistare tutta la Porsche supererebbe di gran lunga le sue possibilità finanziarie 😂😂.

…e viceversa una e-jet con lunghezza sotto 5m per l’america non fara nessun senso...

Stellantis will reportedly create a new Jeep SUV with Chinese Dongfeng’s tech Stellantis will reportedly develop a new Jeep-branded off-road SUV jointly with the state-owned Dongfeng Motor Group. Their vehicle will adopt the technologies of Voyah and M-Hero brands. Dongfeng officials proved they are in communication with Stellantis, refusing to comment on a new development. When Stellantis and China are first mentioned, many will think of Leapmotor. Cooperation between the two companies has been discussed since 2023. However, the international group has a much longer-standing partnership with Dongfeng, Stellantis’ partner in the production of Citroën and Peugeot vehicles in China. In May 2025, the Dongfeng Peugeot-Citroen JV launched a new NEV brand called Hedmos. In July, the CEO of Stellantis Group, Antonio Filosa, visited Dongfeng Motor and experienced key models from Voyah and M-Hero brands. The top manager highlighted that Stellantis will deepen its cooperation with the state-owned automaker to accelerate the transition to the new energy segment. Jeep from Stellantis and DongfengEconomic Observer reported that Stellantis and Dongfeng might have reached a preliminary agreement with Dongfeng Motor. This collaboration includes the development of a Jeep off-road SUV with the integration of Voyah and M-Hero brands. Previously, Jeep cars were manufactured by GAC in China. However, this joint venture was declared bankrupt in 2022. The Jeep partnership between Stellantis and Dongfeng will adopt the model previously adopted by the Freelander project from Chery and Jaguar Land Rover. It means Stellantis will take care of styling while Dongfeng will develop core technologies, including powertrain, cockpit, and autonomous driving. The two parties plan to launch their first Jeep new energy crossover in Q1 2027 with a development cycle of 18 months. CarNewsChina expects that this partnership will allow Stellantis to solidify its market positioning in the Middle Kingdom. Previously, this group’s sales declined for several years in China. The launch of a new BEV or PHEV model from Jeep will help Stellantis and Dongfeng to relaunch this brand domestically. Later, the China-developed Jeep crossover may enter overseas markets. It may adopt a lot of tech from the recently launched M-Hero 817. (CNC)
