Volkswagen can’t stop expanding its SUV lineup with new models. The latest addition is called the Tayron and it serves as a replacement for the three-row Tiguan Allspace. The new model, which is expected to adopt the Tiguan moniker in the US, recently appeared in China as the Tayron L.

The new SUV is expected to share its MQB Evo underpinnings and electrified powertrain options with the slightly smaller EU-spec VW Tiguan. The Tayron will be unveiled on October 10, just ahead of its public debut at the Paris Motor Show.

The 2024 Paris Auto Show will take place from October 14 to October 20.

With 40,000 units between 2022 & 2023 I am expecting an RNS tomorrow.

You could argue that the Subaru Solterra is one of the safest cars to drive, mainly because it’s non-stop at keeping an eye out on drivers with the infrared camera integrated above the steering wheel. Similar to the bZ4X, the infrared camera monitors you while driving — alerting me whenever I’m not looking straight at the dashboard, or when it can’t see my face. This type of nagging also persists with its smart cruise control system, which will disengage if the attention alerts it sends out are ignored.

Alexander Dennis launches next-generation 8.5-meter e-bus Enviro100EV in Hong Kong. Last photo shows a small "Pod" on the dashboard with two dots either side of a square. Not unlike a Ford Mach E DMS

DR777 - I think you need to repost. The second paragraph only says "Doesn't sound like SEE" . I assume you were going to say why !

Except Mitsubishi, Subaru & Kia

This is the document referenced by CB. The tables he used are on page 5 & 6

Or Mobileye Or Valeo Or Qualcomm

How would Samsung fit into the supply chain to OEMs/ Tier 1s ? Are Qualcomm not already linked to Valeo ?

Alexander Dennis and Skoda making reference to H*lation for a bus. AD are stating their Bus is to the TFL spec . ( Just like Wrightbus)

AD seems to have a partnership with BYD

Apologies- the dates are wrong. They are bought on the 10th or next working day

We were told a few weeks ago that you can now buy SEE shares with Hargreaves. Your fees are taken on the 10th of the month and they buy on the 15th. May explain number of trades today.

Website now changed to August 2024

Could August 8th be a significant day? Cars on the road !

the bus, fitted with 472kwh batteries as standard (the supplier is the polish impact), comes together with a 14-years warranty, covering as many as 1 million km (whichever comes first). the vehicle launched this week is a demonstrator "which will be made available to operators upon completion of its ****logation and certification later this year", in alexander dennis' words.

Thanks Oldfool. I also did not check the date.

Its looking like the Mini , at least those fitted with the system, may have the lights on the steering wheel spokes.
