Renault 4 E-Tech electric - VI - a grille design of brilliance

AutoMotions

LED technology has revolutionised the design of vehicle headlamps. Designers and engineers now have greater freedom to create unique headlamp shapes and lighting signatures, reflecting brand identity. Unveiled at the 2024 Paris Motor Show, Renault 4 E-Tech electric will be the first Renault vehicle to feature a backlit grille with an illuminated logo. Renault Chief Designer, Design Strategy and Advanced Tech, Stefano Bolis tells us how this innovation came about. Renault 4 E-Tech electric and Renault 5 E-Tech electric stand apart from the other vehicles in the range. They share the DNA of icons with a modern twist. In terms of their design, “they have their own purpose, a freedom of expression in design and styling innovations “ explains Stefano. "Renault 5 E-Tech electric, for example, has unique shining look. The car seems to be alive and it takes us back to the original Renault 5 and the well-known ad”. To create something unique once again with Renault 4 E-Tech electric, we had to think outside the box. “For Renault 4, we decided to focus our efforts on illuminating the characteristic features of the front end: the logo and grille” continues Stefano. The grille of the original Renault 4 featured unique rectangular lines with rounded corners and a chrome surround. “Light is today's new chrome, so it made sense to illuminate this characteristic detail. At the same time, the vertical lines of the original were perfect for showcasing the new illuminated logo” says Stefano.

A special technical highlight of the new Lancia Ypsilon is the innovative S.A.L.A. interface: Sala, Italian for living room, is an abbreviation for Sound, Air, Light and Augmentation at Lancia. The system, used for the first time in a vehicle model of the Stellantis Group, centralizes the functions of the audio and air conditioning as well as the lighting. For example, it is possible to control the sound specially tuned for the interior of the new Lancia Ypsilon and the eight colors of the ambient lighting by touching a single button or using voice commands. The central instrument cluster and infotainment system are shown by two TFT displays with a screen diagonal of 10.25 inches (26 centimeters). The colors and layout of the full HD monitors are variable. Two 180-degree cameras make parking maneuvers with the new Lancia Ypsilon even more comfortable. In addition, the advanced driver assistance systems enable autonomous driving at level 2. These include the autonomous emergency braking system, the lane keeping assistant and the adaptive cruise control.

Fully electric models play a key role in implementing the Mercedes-Benz sustainable business strategy. However, the wishes and mobility needs of customers in different regions of the world determine the pace of this transformation. The new model family will therefore also be available as a hybrid with 48-volt technology and an electric motor with 20 kW drive power integrated into the transmission. The highly efficient drivetrain was developed by Mercedes-Benz engineers in Germany according to proven quality standards. The impressive compactness of the motor and gearbox design can be attributed to the small distance between cylinders and side-by-side arrangement of the integrated electric motor: the motor, inverter and transmission form a highly integrated unit. A newly developed 48-volt battery with lithium-ion technology offers an energy content of up to 1.3 kWh. Once again, the design is particularly compact: the battery cells and the DC/DC converter are integrated in what is known as a flat pack.

Stellantis N.V. today unveiled the STLA Frame platform, a BEV-native, multi-energy platform engineered for full-size body-on-frame pickup trucks and SUVs – a critical segment in North America and select global markets. Full-size truck and SUV owners demand uncompromised power and durability and prioritize capability, practicality and performance. STLA Frame platform is designed to deliver class-leading range of up to 690 miles/1,100 kilometers with range-extender electric-vehicle (REEV) technologies and 500 miles/800 kilometers in battery-electric vehicles (BEV), a maximum towing capacity of 14,000 pounds (6,350 kg) and a payload rating of 2,700 pounds (1,224 kg). Additionally, the platform supports water fording up to 24 inches (610 mm), making it ready for challenging environments and diverse use cases. Intended to underpin Stellantis full-size pickup trucks, light commercial vehicles and SUVs, STLA Frame vehicles will initially be offered with an innovative propulsion lineup, including a full BEV system and a REEV configuration. STLA Frame can also accommodate internal combustion, hybrid and hydrogen propulsion systems in the future. The REEV system, which combines a battery, front and rear electric drive modules (EDMs), on-board generator and internal combustion engine, allows drivers to haul or tow heavy loads over extended distance without sacrificing range. With no direct mechanical path from the engine to the wheels, the generator powers the EDMs to propel the vehicle and recharges the battery as needed, ensuring extended range under load conditions, while benefitting from the torque of the electric engines that bring the vehicle’s dynamics to new heights.

How many kilometres can an all-electric CLA cover in 24 hours, including charging stops and driver changes? That was the question faced by the development team working to optimise the efficiency of the new all-electric compact class models. The impressive answer was provided by “Project N”, the internal code name for a project that is as secret as it is ambitious. N for Nardò: two close-to-production prototypes of the CLA set off on this high-speed route in southern Italy at the beginning of April 2024. A CLA covered exactly 3,717 kilometres within 24 hours – and got further than other near-production electric vehicles The distance of the endurance run is equivalent to a trip from Trondheim (Norway) to Istanbul (Turkey). Air temperatures ranged from 13 °C at night to 29 °C during the day. The tarmac was even hotter. The vehicle's battery was charged exactly 40 times at a standard charging station during the 24-hour test. The charging breaks only lasted around 10 minutes each time. If these are taken into account, the average speed was a remarkable 154.9 km/h. In the run-up to the drive, the experts at Mercedes determined the ideal charging strategy to maximise the average speed. On a real long-distance journey, this optimisation takes place via navigation with Electric Intelligence.

A raft of enhancements have broadened the Mazda BT-50’s appeal as a go-anywhere tourer or 4WD track companion. Fitted on all 4x4 model grades, the addition of a Rough Terrain Mode optimises the Mazda BT-50’s traction control when off-roading, for greater management and precision in difficult conditions. Engaged via a separate button located next to the gear shifter, Rough Terrain Mode will modulate throttle and brake inputs instantaneously when it senses the ute coming off idle, therefore intervening before wheel spin can occur to transfer torque to the wheels with most traction without any delay. The new mode works in harmony with the locking rear differential and Hill Descent Control fitted as standard to all four-wheel drive variants, ensuring exceptional traction and dependability on even the harshest tracks. The ever-practical Dual Cab Chassis layout can now also be ordered in GT specification for the first time on a Mazda BT-50. Building on the already ample XTR model grade with its LED headlamps, dual-zone climate control, 9-inch touchscreen and leather-bound steering wheel and gear knob, the GT gains chrome-finished heated exterior mirrors, heated front seats and brown leather seat trim. Rounding out the GT specification is a remote start function, operable via the key fob.

And thanks to the 157 kW (213 hp) electric motor and 345 Newton meters of direct torque, the journey then continues just as quickly.
