Kia Sportage and Alfa Tonale PHEV, authorized to repair electric vehicles, Tesla recalls: Car News Today
Kia and Alfa Romeo launch plug-in hybrids. Electric vehicle owners and independent shops may soon dig into more repair details. And Tesla is recalling the cars it fixes. This and more, here at Green Car Report.
The 2023 Kia Sportage Plug-In Hybrid is on the way, and Kia on Tuesday revealed a little more about how it will fit into the US market. Its 32-mile electric range may not keep up with the RAV4 Prime or the Escape PHEV, but sportier styling and a more comprehensive feature set could — for an as-yet-unannounced price.
Alfa Romeo is jumping through multiple hoops at once. The 2023 Alfa Romeo Tonale plug-in hybrid was the first production Alfa hybrid of any kind. With 30 km of electric power and an electric motor driving the rear wheels, it promises a more engaging driving experience along with the aggressive looks of the Italian brand.
The right to correct the movement is very much. A measure recently introduced by Representative Bobby Rush would provide vehicle owners and independent stores equal access to tools and data—Ensure multiple layers from telemetry services to battery life when switching to EVs.
And Tesla is recalling 26,681 vehicles from recent model years due to problems related to the operation of the heat pump. That’s another matter that, during the recall, is essentially moot because the fix was rolled out in an over-the-air update.
