EV Channels Review

This weekly update covers a wide array of automotive news, with a significant focus on debuts from the Frankfurt Motor Show and other global reveals. The Genesis G70 is highlighted as a promising new competitor in the compact luxury sedan segment, aiming to challenge established German rivals with its design, performance figures (including a 3.3L twin-turbo V6 and a 2.0L turbo-four), and features like launch control and a mechanical limited-slip differential. While pricing is unconfirmed, its US arrival is slated for early 2018. The Mercedes-AMG Project ONE hypercar is showcased, boasting over 1000 horsepower and extreme acceleration. More accessible is the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, praised for retaining a naturally aspirated flat-six engine and manual transmission in a low-profile package. The update also touches upon the 2019 Porsche Cayenne Turbo, Audi R8 V10 RWS, Audi RS4 Avant, Lamborghini Urus SUV, and various electric concepts like the Honda Urban EV and BMW i Vision Dynamics, alongside production-ready models like the Mercedes GLC F-Cell. The reviewer expresses excitement for new segment entrants and innovative concepts, while noting the unfortunate absence of certain models, like the Audi RS4 Avant, in the US market.
