    Genesis Motor America, in collaboration with Electrify America, offers three years of 30-minute complimentary charging sessions from the date of vehicle purchase. Owners of the 2023 GV60, the 2023 Electrified GV70, and the 2023 Electrified G80 have access to hyper-fast charging on Electrify America’s coast-to-coast charging network and can seamlessly locate and access charging stations while on the road via the Genesis Connected Services and Electrify America mobile apps.

    This is growing as Genesis has also opened up their first standalone luxury store in Santa Monica California. Every Genesis comes with a complimentary three-year subscription to Service Valet. This means never dropping off, picking up or wasting time with vehicle maintenance. With Service Valet, you can schedule service online or via the mobile app and have your vehicle picked up wherever and whenever you choose. You’ll also receive a loaner vehicle and select when and where your Genesis will be returned, all at your convenience.

    Genesis today announced the launch of Genesis Home, a residential electrification ecosystem that provides customers with access to solar energy and electric vehicle (EV) charging from their home. Genesis Home enables customers to secure a top-rated residential AC EV charger, solar panels, and energy storage systems through a one-stop marketplace platform.

    With Genesis Home, Genesis is streamlining the home electrification process by pairing top products/technologies and pre-vetted installers with dedicated Energy Advisors. The Energy Advisors will guide guests through the entire home electrification journey to ensure that each Genesis Home client receives a home energy solution tailored to their individual energy needs. Energy Advisors will also work with customers after their system has been installed to not only address any customer service inquiries, but to also help clients configure their systems to perform according to each clients’ own preferences. Together with EVs like GV60, the Electrified G80, and Electrified GV70, Genesis Home’s residential charging solution compliments Genesis’ out-of-home charging collaboration with Electrify America to provide comprehensive charging solutions for its clients.

    Genesis Home includes rooftop solar, energy storage, charging systems, and additional componentry for an ecosystem that provides more sustainable and cost-effective energy for clients’ home and vehicles. The Genesis Home ecosystem is initially comprised of three components, including a ChargePoint Home Flex Level 2 Charger, rooftop solar panels, and home energy storage systems.

    “Genesis Home is an end-to-end mobility solution that both lowers barriers to EV adoption, while simultaneously providing a seamless solution for our discerning clients to generate and store dependable, clean electric power and to harness their home energy to charge their electric vehicle,” said Claudia Marquez, chief operating officer of Genesis Motor North America. “Genesis Home provides clients with peace of mind from the knowledge that Genesis has developed a single destination for consumers’ home electrification needs.”

    Genesis Home offers customers reliable, more sustainable energy production and storage, protection from outages, and powerful home charging, all in one simple solution. The system will work with any current Genesis EV model. Customers can visit www.genesis.com for more information.

    Solar panels, energy storage systems and the home EV charger are manufactured and offered by third parties. Currently, the home EV charger, solar panels and energy storage systems are available in select markets by referral from select Genesis dealers. Genesis Home will be available from additional dealers throughout 2023. Installation services are provided by third-party electricians sourced through the Genesis Home Marketplace and contracted by customers for their projects.

    Genesis Home will compete with Tesla Solar products and Powerwall as well as GM Energy EcoSystem

    Factorial Energy Opens Solid-State Battery Production Facility

    Factorial loves to quote Thomas Edison who in 1883 said the following: "The storage battery is, in my opinion, a catchpenny, a sensation, a mechanism for swindling the public by stock companies." Factorial states that this sentiment is true and has been held over the last 138 years till now. Investing in solid-state battery R&D over the last 6 years has allowed Factorial to create their proprietary FEST (Factorial Electrolyte System Technology). Factorial held their

    Mazda unveils the Iconic SP concept

    At the 2023 Tokyo auto show, Mazda unveiled a sports car concept. Originally named Vision Study Model, the Iconic SP, utilizes an interesting engine combination. This hybrid-rotary-powered sports car uses the twin-rotor rotary engine as a generator to recharge the batteries. Iconic SP is around 10 inches longer than Mazda’s compact Miata. Although Mazda hasn't disclosed the number of electric motors, they are the main propulsion system. As a range-extending EV, that rotary engine doesn’t dr

    • To expand on this: 2022 Hummer EV Pickup (350 kW) 2024 Genesis GV60 (350 kW) 2024 Genesis GV70 (350 kW) 2023 Genesis G80 (350 kW) 2022 Lucid Air (300 kW) 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV (300 kW) 2022 Audi E-Tron GT (270 kW) 2022 Porsche Taycan (270 kW) 2022 Tesla Model S (250 kW) 2022 Tesla Model X (250 kW) 2022 Tesla Model 3 (250 kW) 2022 Tesla Model Y (250 kW) 2022 Kia EV6 (240 kW) 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 (235 kW) 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 (235 kW) 2022 Rivian R1S (220 kW) 2022 Rivian R1T (220 kW) 2022 BMW iX (200 kW) 2022 Mercedes-EQ EQS (200 kW) 2022 BMW i4 (195 kW) 2023 Cadillac Lyriq (190 kW) 2023 Mercedes-EQ EQE (170 kW) 2023 Volkswagen ID Buzz (170 kW) 2022 Polestar 2 (155 kW) 2022 Volvo C40 Recharge (155 kW) 2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge (155 kW) 2022 Audi E-Tron (150 kW) 2022 Ford Mustang Mach E (150 kW) 2023 Toyota bZ4x (150 kW) This is a (mostly) complete list of the EVs with a charge rate of 150kw or higher. The reason I picked 150kw is because that's the base charge rate for the V2 version of the Tesla Supercharger and that seems like a minimum standard for vehicles to meet today.  Keep in mind that well over half of Tesla's Superchargers are V2 with probably around 30% being V3 (250kw). V4 (350kw) Super Chargers are brand new and only one is installed in the U.S. as of October of this year... and even then, the Cybertruck is the only Tesla that can suck juice that fast. Additionally, the Kia and Hyundai models on this list and coming in the future have the hardware in them for 350kw charging that will be enabled in a software update in the future. I should also note that it seems like only the big truck-based Ultium products from GM appear to get 300kw+ charging. I know the EValanche will have it as will the Escalade IQ. The Ram REV 1500 is getting 350kw charging as well. The Lyriq is 190 kw as are the Blazer EV and Equinox EV. I think this is shortsighted on GM's part, and they need to bump these to at least the 250kw range. So you can see the list of cars that will charge at a higher speed than a Model 3 at a V2-150kw charger at these new Pilot stations will have a pretty good advantage, and if the driver opts for a 250kw charger on the Tesla network, they'll still get decent speed. It also matters for vehicles with a shorter range.  Of the three Genesis models on the list, only the GV60 can get over 300 miles, and only on the RWD model. The GV70 range is only 235, which is pretty low these days. But if I were buying one, I would be less concerned about the overall range as long as I can go from 10% to 80% (~165 miles) in 18 minutes, as their website claims. This will really fill out the network for state-to-state EV driving.
    • Jeeps lie about a reliable V6 when there are so many issues with the engine when hitting 100,000 miles has soured our family on Jeep. My son is negotiating right now to trade his in after spending over $5K to fix the blown head gaskets and leaking water pump into the engine so it at least runs right on a new SUV, and it WILL NOT be a Jeep. Rather than fix all the engine problems for the V6 that is used in far more than just Jeep by Stellantis, they are now facing many lawsuits and have dumped it for a straight 6. Stellantis brands are off the purchase list for good in my household. Right now, I would take a Hyundai/Kia/Genesis over Jeep/Ram/Dodge/Chrysler and all the European name plates that Stellantis owns.
