The Electric Cars From The Multinational Ford And Those From Volkswagen Will Be Produced Separately, Where Each Company Will Produce Its Own Project

After Volkswagen announced the sale of the MEB platform (ID of electric cars), Ford expressed its immediate interest in purchasing it, which saved the company about 2 years in the development of this ID project. However, currently, each brand will follow its own path after the purchase agreement made in 2019. Even with this “separation,” Ford will still produce 2 electric car models and will then begin developing its own platforms and technologies, according to the site Insideevs.

Both electric cars from Ford will be SUVs, with one of them hitting the market in March of this year and the other in 2024, featuring configurations of a sporty crossover.

They will be produced at Ford’s plant in Cologne and are based on the MEB, which will help achieve Ford’s sales targets focused on zero emissions in Europe. The company plans to sell 600,000 battery-powered cars per year by 2026.

Autonomous Production of Electric Cars

After the arrival of the Ford electric cars, the multinational will focus on its own platforms, with its new generation of electric cars being heavily sold in Europe (and produced in Valencia), where the company, which produces models like the Kuga, Galaxy, and S-Max, will focus solely on manufacturing electric models.

The multinational Ford is aiming to become an exclusive electric car brand in Europe by 2030. However, to achieve this goal, it will need to completely renew its car line. In the multinational’s portfolio of changes are the two models based on the MEB and the electric Puma, expected to be launched in 2024. The car will be made based on its current platform with production in Craiova, Romania.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

With 70 tons of rock removed by hand and an 800-year-old abandoned cave, a former businessman transforms a dark shelter into a modern home carved in the heart of the forest.

Scientists have created a material six times lighter than air, 75 times lighter than styrofoam, and that becomes stronger the more it is compressed: aerographite seems impossible, but it can reinforce structures, batteries, and satellites.

A black box made of steel and concrete, about 16 meters in size, is being installed in a remote location on Earth to record in real-time the progress of the climate crisis and the potential collapse of the planet, with data from space and meteorological agencies worldwide.

Peugeot 408 Griffe 2015 combines a turbo engine, 0 to 100 km/h in 8.3 seconds, a 526-liter trunk larger than many compact SUVs, leather, multimedia, cruise control, and a sunroof, but it remains off the radar among fully equipped used cars.

A great economist predicted that by 2030 we would work only 15 hours a week, and John Maynard Keynes’s forecast is about to fail miserably almost 100 years later.

Workers removed old panels from a Scottish lighthouse and found a hidden bottle with a message from 1892, names of engineers, lighthouse keepers, and details of a lens used to guide ships.
