It is less powerful than its previous version but it is faster and much more refined

by

The Tesla Model and Performance has been revealed. He has done it with a little surprise. The new version of the Model and Performance lowers the feet to the ground to deliver a little less power and, nevertheless, to manage them to be faster in 0 to 100 km/h. But that’s not, much less, the only thing that this new version brings. Why does an electric car have less autonomy than the announcing Tesla Model and Performance Technical Card Tesla Model and Performance Measures and weight 4,790 mm long, 1,920 mm wide and 1,624 mm high. 2,890 mm of wheelbase. Weight to be confirmed. Trunk 822 liters (Tesla does not specify if it measures to the ceiling). 116 liters in the front trunk. bodywork Five -seater SUV Maximum power 460 hp (dual motor and integral traction) MECHANICS Maximum speed of 250 km/h Acceleration (0 to 100 km/h) 4.8 s WLTP range 586 km WLTP consumption 15.3 kWh/100 km DGT environmental distinctive Zero emissions. Driving aids Autopilot system with adaptive cruise control with Stop & Go function, lane maintenance, dead angle sensor, emergency braking, front and rear cross traffic control. 360º camera and autonomous parking. Operating system Tesla software not compatible with Android Auto and Apple Carplay. Multimedia screen 16 -inch central screen. OTHERS Wireless load for mobile phone, two USB-C shots. Spotify, Disney+, Steam, YouTube applications, Netflix specifically developed. PRICE From 61,990 euros More refined at a very competitive price The tightening and tesla competition rises. The new Tesla Model and Performance is the most powerful and refined version of the company’s electric SUV that We already tried this year. The model, then, already presumed to refine the formula to offer a more mature version of the original concept. Now it seems to perfect this. The Tesla Model and Performance adopts the same formula as the Tesla Model 3 Performance. The car stays at 460 hp when it used to rise to 480 hp but is faster, lowering the acceleration 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, two tenths faster than the outgoing model in this performance version. The maximum speed is 250 km/h. In the information sent by Tesla, the company talks about “an improved battery pack, equipped with new cells that offer a higher energy density, provides more energy without adding weight.” However, its size or capacity is not specified. Of course, an autonomy of 580 kilometers is advanced, according to WLTP cycle and an average consumption of 16.2 kWh/100 km. But the new performance is also more refined. To improve its dynamics, the electric car arrives with Achnid 2.0 forged tires of 21 inches staggered with integrated aerodynamic roofs for greater efficiency. They show the red brake tweezers. The car will also benefit from new shock absorbers and stabilizer bars that are coupled in an adaptive suspension As for design, abroad brings small novelties in its front and rear bumper that show that we are facing the most powerful version (like a small carbon fiber wing) but it is inside where it has received the most care. Now, the one who opts for the Performance version also takes the best screen, which scale until 16 inches and is offered with finer frames. The pedals are aluminum and the seats are also specific with extension on the thighs. All this with a highly competitive price. Their 61,990 euros They make it one of the most attractive options in the Power/Autonomy of the market if we take into account its size. In that price range we only have Chinese options in the market. The XPEng G7 for 56,500 euros and 476 hp of power but with a slightly lower size and the Smart #5 (of Geely) that with a price below 60,000 euros is the one that offers the most power, leaving the 500 hp, but has a higher consumption. On the contrary, if we look at the most powerful options of Hyundai Ioniq 5 or the Ford Mustang Mach E we find cars with much more power but a similar acceleration, a higher consumption and a slightly lower autonomy. All for a surcharge that goes well above at least 10,000 euros more than the version of Tesla. Photo | Tesla In Xataka | Byd wanted to have his hole in history.

The Chinese solar sector wanted to save itself from overproduction with a pact. Just managed to sink faster

by

Despite being a reference country World Cup in renewable energy, China Face a perfect storm In its solar sector: price collapse, red margins and an uncontrolled overproduction. Given this situation, more than 30 solar manufacturers agreed to stop the offer to stabilize the market, imitating the OPEC model. A kind of “Solar Cartel” in the style of oil exporting countries. It hasn’t done very well … Six months later, the result has been a disaster. Far from stabilizing, production has reached historical maximums, the facilities have tripled and losses continue to accumulate. According to Bloombergdifferent executives in the sector have publicly expressed their frustration and accuse their competitors of betraying the collective pact. OPEC style? Some of the big Chinese photovoltaic companies seem to be following the example of OPEC. As He explained Oilprice, the famous oil sign has been adjusting its production to influence global prices. The logic is clear: if the offer is limited, the price drop is contained and war between producers is avoided. Something similar is happening in the solar sector. Longi, Tongwei and Ja Solar have signed a “self -discipline” agreement under the Chinese association of the photovoltaic industry. The reason? Profitability is falling as panel prices, modules and wafers continue to fall. The pact seeks to set production fees by 2025, depending on the installed capacity and market share of each company. Chronicle of an announced death. Like Santiago Nasar at 5:30, this pact also had an inevitable ending. Unlike the oil market – dominated by state giants – the Chinese solar sector is private, fragmented and fiercely competitive. According to Bloombergthe agreement was not binding or contemplated sanctions. It was nothing more than a declaration of good intentions. And while some expected others to fulfill, many took the opportunity to gain market share producing even more. The result was excess supply, prices in free fall and sunken balances. No rules and every machine. According to Oilpricethe plan included limiting new investments, raising the technical requirements and increasing from 20% to 30% the minimum capital required for new projects. The government also implemented measures to cool the overheated sector. However, instead of containing themselves, companies intensified production so as not to lose relevance. According to data cited by Bloombergsolar facilities tripled in a year, and manufacturers have not closed or reduced operations significantly. The damage has been tangible. Longi Green Energy, one of the leaders of the sector, reported in the third quarter of 2024 a loss of 174 million dollars (1,261 million yuan), its first major fall since 2016. In the words of the company itself, collected by Oilpricelast year marked the first collective loss of the sector in almost a decade. The Chinese government has already hardened the conditions for new investments, and there are voices that ask for a firmer intervention. But the truth is that the “OPEC Solar” has failed loudly. The market remains overflowing, depressed prices and competition more wild than ever. The mirage of coordination. Try to coordinate a privatized and fragmented industry with a voluntary pact has been, as has detailed Bloomberg, an idea “condemned from the beginning.” Far from an orderly cartel, the attempt has exposed the structural weaknesses of the Chinese solar model: brutal efficiency, but without rules or firewalls. China continues to lead the world in installed capacity for renewables. But its solar manufacturing sector now faces a hard truth: in a market without discipline or referees, surviving is more difficult than producing.

Police have proven to be faster confiscating him

by

Exceed speed limits It has consequences. In some cases, the infraction does not exceed some hundred euros and a good review of Card pointswhile the most serious can punish themselves with jail sentences. An Austrian driver who stopped for Circular at 123 km/h With his bugatti chiron, he would have preferred any of the aforementioned sanctions, in order not to have to face the punishment that the Austrian police imposed: seized his car. Bugatti Chiron runs a lot, sir agent A driver in Austria was arrested by the police for leading 123 km/h in an area where the maximum limit was 60 km/h. This speeding, which represents more than double the allowed limit, led the police to apply the usual regulations in these cases: the immediate confiscation of its bugatti chiron. According to him Austrian medium Heutethe incident occurred in the famous Ringstrasse of Vienna, a ring -avenue surrounding the center of Vienna with a 60 km/h speed limit. A Patrol equipped with a mobile radar He took positions in the immediate vicinity of Parliament to control speed infractions in that area. What they did not expect is that they would end up stopping and confiscating a car with 1,500 hp driving twice the speed allowed by a city with such restrictive traffic standards. In his defense, the 38 -year -old driver alleged that the supercar, who carried German registration, belonged to a friend, but this did not prevent the authorities from confiscating the car immediately, as collect in a video Uploaded to YouTube by a witness. In addition to the confiscation of the vehicle, the driver also lost his driving license on the spot. This incident underlines the seriousness with which Austria is trying the Serious traffic infractions, a regulation that It has endorsed recently to dissuade offenders. Touch the image to go to the original message Traffic Law in Austria Austria has recently implemented stricter laws against speeding, allowing vehicle confiscation in cases of serious infractions. This regulation applies to drivers who Speed ​​limits exceedin an effort to reduce accidents and improve road safety in the country. The regulation establishes that, in case of exceeding the limit out of the town in 50 km/ho more than 30 km/h in town, the driver will run out of driving license. In this case, the Chiron driver doubled this maximum limit of 30 km/h when driving at 123 km/h. In addition to these limitations, it is specified that if it circulates above the speed limit at 60 km/h in a populated area (in this case the limit was exceeded at 63 km/h) the car will be retained a maximum of 14 days. The confiscation of luxury vehicles such as Bugatti Chiron sends a clear message that no one is above the law, regardless of its economic status. The Austrian government has been interested in selling the cars it seized, but as the driver claimed at the time of the seizure, he was not the owner of the Support, the procedure would be complicated since it would be necessary to decide whether the property of the owner or responsibility of the driver prevails. 2.5 seconds were enough The bugatti chiron is An exceptional hypercocheequipped with a 8.0 -liter W16 engine and four turbocharger that produces 1,500 hp and 1,600 nm of motor torque. With these benefits, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds, so a pressure on the accelerator of just over a second would be enough to far exceed the speed limits of the ringstrasse. Its original sale price was around three million euros more taxes, so it is an exemplary sanction for whom They exceed speed limits And, without a doubt, a surprise for the employees of the municipal deposit.

I have tried the chat, the French Mistral chatbot, and has arguments to fight with Chatgpt. Not just for being faster

by

Mistral recently launched the mobile app and the new web version of Le Chat, his AI assistant that seeks a European approach (and with a French accent) for chatbots that are already something everyday in our lives. Incidentally, that launch has been accompanied by an important update of its web platform. As a regular user of Chatgpt and ClaudeI wanted to test it in several scenarios, also comparing it with its rivals. The first impression impacts: It is deviably fastmuch more than any model we have seen so far. Of course he has even more crumb. Speed ​​changes the rules The most striking is still your speed in responding. Reach 1,000 words per second thanks to Its integration with brain processors. This, in practice, means long virtually snapshot responses. Not that GPT-4O Or 3.5 Sonnet on duty are too slow, it is a first world problem, but I think we all prefer to wait a second to wait fifteen. In my tests comparing Le Chat with Chatgpt and Claude I have noticed that difference. For example, by asking them to write a long and complete analysis about the tariff policy of the United States, Le chat did it in a couple of seconds, with a well structured text and even with appointments. His rivals offered quite similar quality responses, but it took longer. And if we want to spin fine, Claude was the one who was above Chatgpt: his answers are usually better in pure writing (apart from code, for example), he has a somewhat more refined, natural and professional style, all at the same time. In fact That’s where chat loses against Claude: The most convincing style, more similar to that of a competent human, the Anthropic chatbot wins. Chatgpt maintains a good general balance, but here does not stand out in speed or style. It is also worth commenting on something: their answers are backed by consultations to reputed media and agencies such as AFP, his countryman, with whom he maintains a collaboration agreement. In my translation and content analysis tests, the model has shown to be at the height of Chatgpt and Claude in quality, although with a more concise style. A somewhat trivial example made me glimpse that Le chat seems somewhat more assertive than chatgpt or claude. Especially the first (and sometimes also the second) sin of being too influenced by the human who talks with them. The example that said: I asked him if Xataka was a Spanish soccer club, what would it be. His answer was Barcelona. He argued reasonably well, but I retended in an incisive way: “Why not Real Madrid? Xataka is the most read technology of Spain at a distance of the second, and Real Madrid is the Spanish club with more titles.” This was your answer. Colors out, I liked it to be reaffirmed and that it was not complacent with my re -question: The choice of FC Barcelona to compare with Xataka is based on several factors that go beyond the number of titles. Here are some reasons why I opted for Barcelona instead of Real Madrid: Style and philosophy: FC Barcelona is known for its distinctive game style, often associated with the “Tiki-Taka”, which is innovative and different. Xataka, being a technology blog, also stands out for its innovative approach and its ability to adapt to new technological trends. Identity and community: FC Barcelona has a strong Catalan identity and a very united community of followers. Xataka also has a community of very compromised and passionate readers by technology, which reinforces that sense of community. Adaptability and avant -garde: Although Real Madrid is a huge club with many titles, FC Barcelona has been historically known for its ability to adapt and be at the forefront in terms of play style and talent development. This aligns with how Xataka remains at the forefront of technology. Global recognition: Both Xataka and FC Barcelona have significant global recognition in their respective fields. Although Real Madrid is also globally recognized, the way in which FC Barcelona has built its unique brand and style resonates more with the identity of Xataka. These reasons do not imply that Real Madrid is less relevant, but simply highlight how certain aspects of FC Barcelona resonate more with Xataka’s identity and approach as a technology blog. By the way, when I asked who Real Madrid would be, he gave an argument argued in his prestige, global scope, awards, etc: The country. It sounded at least reasonable, but when, already restless, I asked who Valencia would be, he told me The world. Twisting the gesture, I asked him who was then Atlético de Madrid. Answer: “Public“. End of the test. Personalized agents and automation One of Le Chat’s most interesting characteristics is his agents system, which allows Create specialized attendees invoking them with “@”. This functionality, similar to OpenAI GPTS or Claude projects, but with a different approach, allows you to automate specific tasks and create personalized workflows. Yes indeed: As with GPTs and projects, this is a feature that requires a Pro subscriptionno free plans. Image: Xataka. Agents can be configured in two ways: through the visual interface of the plataforme or through the API for developers. The interesting thing is that you can customize aspects such as: The base model (Mistral Large 2Mistral Nemo or Codestral). The “temperature” or the tone of the answers (to make them more creative or more precise). Specific behavioral instructions. Examples of use to improve your performance. Unlike ChatGPT GPTS, which are more oriented to the end user, Le Chat agents seem to be designed also thinking about business integrations and automated workflows. While Claude does not yet offer similar functionality (although Claude Pro with extended context), Mistral approach seems to be halfway between the ease of use of chatgpt and flexibility They are looking for developers. In my experience, the creation of agents is more technical than with GPTS, but also more powerful in terms of customization and … Read more

four times faster than in the 80s

by

2023 and 2024 were extremely warm years globally. Atmospheric temperatures beat records and exceeded the limits self -imposed by the international community in global warming. This is only part of the story. Climate acceleration. Because the oceans are not far behind in this rise in temperatures. According to a new study, the oceans are not only heating, but they heat up at a much greater pace What years ago. If during the 1980s the average surface temperature of the ocean surface was 0.6º Celsius per decade, the current rhythm reaches 0.27º per decade. This represents a 350% increase in the last 35 years. “If the oceans were a water bath, then in the 80s, the hot water tap would release water slowly, heating the water only a fraction of one degree every decade. But now the hot water tap works much faster and heating has accelerated. The way to reduce this heating is closing the tap, reducing carbon emissions and addressing zero-8, explained in a press release Chris Merchant, who led the elaboration of the study. Balance issue. According to Explain the team Responsible for the study, the problem can be interpreted as a lack of energy balance: solar energy captured by Earth is greater than that which leaves our planet to the outer space. Therefore, the system is progressively heated. There are different factors that influence this accumulation of energy, such as the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere or a reduction in the amount of sunlight that our planet reflects abroad. Factor interaction. Within the system itself, we can also observe the interaction of various phenomena. The marine surface temperature affects, for example at the atmospheric temperature and that is why, at least in part responsible for the increase in global temperatures observed in the last two years. For example, we know that the child, a phenomenon associated with the surface temperature in a Pacific Ocean strip but with global weather repercussions. The child is a periodic phenomenon so we can break its impact on other phenomena. Comparing The last period (marked by the El Niño phenomenon) with the previous cycle, and could estimate that 44% of the increase in global temperature was attributable to this acceleration in the accumulation of heat by the ocean. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Environmental Research Letters. Also risk on the mainland. The surface temperature of the sea has repercussions on the weather and the recurrence of extreme phenomena. The case of hurricanes is paradigmatic. The thermal energy of the ocean is the “fuel” of these phenomena, so their frequency and force depend in large part on the heat on the marine surface. Closer, the impact of the last Dana was also associated with climate change. In this case, the heat of the marine surface and the adjoining air generate a greater accumulation of moisture in the air and open the road to a greater thermal contrast that in turn generates storms of greater magnitude.
