Increase VW ID.4 range, Mazda CX60 PHEV, good Tesla EPA, Neutral car with polar climate: Car News Today
Tesla was slapped on the wrist by the EPA. Mazda introduces a new plug-in hybrid model. VW enhances range for ID.4. And Polestar reveals more about its climate-neutral car project. This and more, here at Green Car Report.
Polestar seeks help from suppliers in construction climate-neutral cars by 2030—There’s no such thing as planting trees — and it revealed the first group of vendors they’re working on on “Project Polestar 0” today.
Mazda will launch a new car plug-in hybrid CX60 SUV on March 8, and it’s hinted that the model will launch with a fresh interior design theme. This is also the first model to be built on the new rear-wheel drive platform.
The Volkswagen ID.4 is receiving a range increase across the lineup for 2022, and the automaker confirmed the increase on Tuesday on a version-by-version basis. The ID.4 of 2022 is up to 20 miles more than the 2021 model — now 280 miles on rear-wheel drive ID.4 Pro. Charging improvements will also appear as over-the-air updates.
And the EPA announced a settlement with Tesla about the violation of the paint shop at the EV maker’s Fremont, California plant. Fine? About the cost of four Model Ys.
