Car of the year Ceremony 2019 - Interview with the COTY Winner

Description

Jaguar's I-Pace battery-electric SUV has won the 2019 Car of the Year award in an incredibly tight contest between it and Renault's Alpine sports coupé. Formal voting ended with each car sharing 250 votes apiece; the first time there's been a draw in the Coty award since it was started in 1964.In keeping with the rules, the votes were then recounted to see which of the 60 jurors voted each car ahead of the other; with that recount done, the Jaguar came out first with 18 first places ahead of the Alpine's 16.This is the first Jaguar to win the award in the Coty's 55 years and a visibly delighted Ian Callum, Jaguar's director of design, received the award from jury president Frank Janssen.

  • C’est quoi cette course de mini voitures aux JO de Paris ? #shorts

    C’est quoi cette course de mini voitures aux JO de Paris ? Ces petites voitures ne servent pas uniquement à faire des courses avec la mascotte Phryge des JO 2024 : ces Toyotas électriques servent aussi à ramener entre autres des javelots ou des disques. Ça fait quelques années déjà qu'elles sont utilisées dans les événements sportifs, par exemple avec les petites Mini Cooper de Londres en 2012 ou la fameuse mini Volkswagen arc-en-ciel de l'Euro 2020. En 2021 à Tokyo, les voitures étaient contrôlées par une IA, mais généralement ce sont des bénévoles qui les pilotent. Cette année, ces petites machines sont décorées aux couleurs des JO et télécommandées. Mais pourquoi Toyota, une marque japonaise, et pas une marque française comme Alpine ou Citroën? C’est parce que Toyota est un partenaire olympique officiel. La marque fournit donc une grande partie des véhicules électriques des Jeux, par exemple les voiturettes pour emmener les participants du village olympique à leurs événements.

  • Proposed three-year EU delay on UK electric car tariffs 'balanced': Sefcovic

    The European Commission proposes a three-year delay on tariffs on electric vehicles that are sold to, or imported from, Britain that was due to apply from January. The commission, the EU's executive arm, says it decided a one-off extension after the automotive industry raised concerns about the massive costs that would arise from a post-Brexit 10-percent tariff. Maros Sefcovic, EU Commission Vice President, calls the proposal "balanced and forward-looking" which "supports the competitiveness of our industry and protect jobs in the European Union" SOUNDBITE
