Chevrolet to Open Retail Sales of Spark EV in Canada Spark EV Delivers Pure Electric Performance with Zero Emissions Chevrolet to Open Retail Sales of Spark EV in Canada Spark EV delivers pure electric performance with zero emissions MONTREAL (Thursday, April 9, 2015) – Today, Chevrolet builds on its position as the Canadian leader in plug-in electric vehicles sales, by expanding the availability of the 2016 Spark EV for retail customers. Spark EV has been available for fleet customers for 2 years. The Spark EV will be eligible for provincial incentives from the provinces of Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. Chevrolet also offers the best- selling electric vehicle in Canada, the Volt, and has recently announced plans to bring the next generation all-electric vehicle based on the Chevrolet Bolt EV Concept into production. “We’re expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC,” said Chris Hay, regional director for Chevrolet. “For city residents whose transportation needs can be met with an all-electric vehicle, Spark EV builds on Chevrolet’s proven electric motor and battery development programs from the Chevrolet Volt.” The Chevrolet Spark EV is an all-electric urban mini-car designed for fun driving and easy ownership. It offers the latest in technology and in-vehicle infotainment, including industry exclusive OnStar with 4G LTE and standard built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. It uses no gasoline, yet its GM-built motor and drive unit deliver 327 lb-ft (444 Nm) of instant torque, enabling a 0-97 km/h (0-60 mph) time of 7.2 seconds. Storing that energy from the charging process and the vehicle’s regenerative braking capability is an 18.4-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. When fully charged, Spark EV features a combined city/highway estimated range of 131 km and an estimated city/highway fuel consumption equivalent of 2.0 Le/100kms. Three available levels of recharging capability include the industry’s first use of the recently approved SAE combo charger for DC fast charging, which charges 80 percent of the battery in just 20 minutes. Pricing for 2016 Spark EV will be available at a later time.

  • The Supply Chain for Electric Vehicle Batteries
    United States International Trade Commission Journal of International Commerce and Economics December 2018 The Supply Chain for Electric Vehicle Batteries David Coffin and Jeff Horowitz Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) are a growing part of the passenger vehicle industry due to improved technology, customer interest in reducing carbon footprints, and policy incentives. EV batteries are the key determinant of both the range and cost of the vehicle. This paper explains the importance of EV batteries, describes the structure of the EV battery supply chain, examines current limitations in trade data for EV batteries, and estimates the value added to EV batteries for EVs sold in the United States.
