Electric Vehicles Take Center Stage at 2022 Chicago Auto1 Show

So demand is through the roof. Jason Turnbull is a Ford2 marketing3 manager promoting a vehicle at the Chicago Auto Show.And it drives completely by itself.

因此需求暴涨。福特营销经理杰森·特恩布尔在芝加哥车展上推销一款汽车。而且它完全是自动驾驶的。

That isnt yet available on dealer4 lots but is already sold out for the foreseeable future.We have over 200 thousand reservations and were trying to fulfill5 those.Hes not talking about the latest sport utility vehicle or a high performance sports car.Americans love their pickup6 trucks.Hes promoting a new full-size pickup truck which is notable for what it doesnt come with, a traditional combustion7 engine,the Ford F-150 lightning is all electric.Its going to tow and haul just as well as the current trucks on the market and just as durable8.While traditional pickup trucks were top sellers in the United States in 2021,Turnbull admits it seemed unlikely that an all-electric vehicle or EV pickup truck would be as well received as its gasoline-powered counterparts.Its a rapidly growing segment so even a couple years ago it was almost the oxymoron evs and trucks.

这款车目前还不能在经销商那里买到,但在可预见的未来已经售罄。我们已经预订了20多万个辆,我们正在努力满足这些要求。他指的不是最新的运动型多功能车(SUV)或高性能跑车。美国人喜欢他们的皮卡。他正在推广一款全新的全尺寸皮卡,这款皮卡最引人注目的地方在于它没有配备传统的内燃机福特的F-150闪电皮卡全是电动的。它的拖拽性能和目前市场上的卡车一样好,而且同样耐用。虽然传统皮卡在2021年是美国最畅销的卡车,特恩布尔承认,全电动汽车或电动皮卡似乎不太可能像汽油动力的车型那样受到欢迎。这是一个快速增长的领域,所以即使在几年前,几乎是都是电动汽车和卡车。

Those wanting to buy a lightning dont seem to be bothered by the vehicles approximate 600 kilometer range before needing a recharge.Most people dont drive 400 miles in a day but they want the capability9 to be able to go up north go on a small trip go on a long trip.

那些想买闪电皮卡的人似乎并不介意这辆车大约600公里的续航里程就需要充电。大多数人不会在一天内开车400英里,但他们希望能够向北行驶,进行一次小旅行,或者进行一次长途旅行。

Nicole Kratz is the chief engineer for General Motors new chevrolet silverado ev pickup truck which is directly competing with the Ford f-150 lightning.She says a growing network of charging stations across America is helping10 consumers overcome anxiety about the current range of electric vehicles.

妮可·克拉茨是通用汽车新款雪佛兰西尔维拉多电动皮卡的总工程师,这款皮卡正与福特F-150闪电皮卡展开直接竞争。她说,美国各地不断扩大的充电站网络正在帮助消费者克服对目前电动汽车系列的焦虑。

Consumers want range and capability having charge stations with our ev growth strategy as well as having partnerships11 with other charge station.Companies is really going to allow us to have that capability of going even further than that first 400 miles of range.Kratz says the silverado ev is the latest offering in a dramatic ramp12 up of new electric vehicles,General Motors plans to send to dealerships in the not too distant future.Weve talked about having a million vehicles on the road by 2025 that are evs up to 35 models thatll be electric vehicles.

消费者希望拥有符合我们电动汽车增长战略的充电站,并与其他充电站建立合作关系。公司真的会允许我们有能力走得更远,超过最初的400英里。克拉茨说,西尔维拉多电动皮卡是新电动汽车急剧增加的最新产品通用汽车计划在不久的将来向经销商发货。我们已经谈到,到2025年,将有100万辆,最多35款车型的电动汽车上路。

Ford has ambitious electric vehicle plans too.So were investing 30 billion dollars in the next couple years and we really think that the US market,were aiming for 40 percent of our vehicles to be all electric by 2030.

福特也有雄心勃勃的电动汽车计划。因此,我们将在未来几年投资300亿美元,我们的目标是到2030年美国市场40%的汽车都是电动的。

Other manufacturers are speeding new ev models to market as well.Tesla will soon add an all-electric cyber truck to its already popular sedan lineup.Rivian is also planning to deliver the first orders for its new truck later this year.Yes the pickup truck market is growing.I feel really excited about being on the edge of another transformation13 in the automotive industry.Now is the right time battery costs have come down charging station infrastructure14 has come up.If anything these evs are already too popular customers have to wait just to get on a waiting list to buy the Ford f-150 lightning.So right now we stopped reservations we are focused on fulfilling those.

其他制造商也在加快新款电动汽车的上市速度。特斯拉将很快在其已经很受欢迎的轿车阵容中增加一款全电动卡车。Rivian还计划在今年晚些时候交付其新卡车的第一批订单。是的,皮卡市场正在增长。我真的为即将迎来汽车业的又一次变革而感到兴奋。现在正是时候,电池成本降下来了,充电站的基础设施也上来了。如果说有什么不同的话,那就是这些电动汽车已经太受欢迎了,顾客必须等待才能进入购买福特F-150闪电皮卡的等待名单。因此,现在我们停止了预订,我们正专注于满足这些需求。
