CHEVY SILVERADO ZR2 AND OTHER NEWS! WEEKLY UPDATE

EV Channels Review

This weekly update covers significant automotive news, with a primary focus on the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado updates, including the new ZR2 off-road trim. The ZR2 is highlighted for its enhanced off-road hardware like Multimatic DSSV dampers and e-lockers, though it notably lacks increased power. The broader 2022 Silverado refresh receives praise for its updated exterior styling and significantly improved interior, featuring a new digital gauge cluster and larger infotainment screen on LT trims and above. The review notes the omission of these interior upgrades on base Work Truck and Custom trims. Other key news includes Ford's teaser for the next-generation Ranger, and a comprehensive look at several electric vehicle concepts and production previews from the Munich Auto Show, such as the Porsche Mission R, Mercedes EQE 350, AMG EQS 53, EQG Concept, and Maybach EQS Concept. The update also touches on BMW's iVision Circular concept, VW's ID.Life concept, Hyundai's Vision FK prototype and IONIQ SUV tease, Honda's TrailSport trim, and Lexus's RCF Fuji Speedway Edition. Finally, New York's proposed 2035 ban on new gasoline vehicle sales is discussed.
