Headline: Electility's New Thunor
On October 1st, Electility held their "Off The Grid" keynote, where CEO 4rotr unveiled the company's new Thunor. The sedan is said to make 1130 horsepower and have 957lb-ft of torque.
The company claimed the Thunor will be the most powerful public production sedan in the industry with the highest range of 1255km (750 mi) since this is an all-electric car to go up against the Elektrisk Pluto Plasma, which we'll see what the limited model will have in store since the Pluto is still in development.
The automobile is expected to arrive in 2022 in three flavours: Thunor, Thunor FS Edition, and Thunor Phantasma starting from 338 622, 424 284, and 510 528 Canadian Dollars. It will be coming to Japan, Europe, the UK, and Australia. It it confirmed by 4rotr the Thunor will not be available in the United States and availability in Canada and other parts of Asia is not mentioned, so don't count on it coming, but that could change later this year, and the beginning of the next.
Update
4rotr has added an update to the Thunor following publishing. It will be available in other Oceania regions, the euro pricing is for ROI only at the moment, and the sedan will be only available in right-hand driving configurations alone.
Hiroto Updates
Kenzo's Hiroto launched the week of IAS back in August, it was not complete at the time, and the company has been working on finishing it to be the best it can be. CEO Renkiraa announced on September 29th that the Hiroto will be receiving an interior as well as a refreshed exterior design. The Kenzo Hiroto will also get more powertrain options with the model refresh.
The technology inside the coupe will remain to a minimum as the CEO wrote the cars from Kenzo will focus on the driving experience over advanced technologies, a contrast to Colt, who is attempting highly advanced technologies seen in few places besides the company.
After a landslide poll (19-0) on Oct.1st, Renkiraa also told the public the refreshed Hiroto will be getting teased as we head along to Autoworks' Winter Showcase. He updated the press release to add that the interior was finished and is now in the process of being exported and tested.
Later that day, we got news the car was in testing, we would get no more teasers for the car, and a poll on the engine.
The Kenzo coupe's refresh will be fully debuted at the Showcase (which I expect to take place in December over Christmas break, but that's just me.)
Sedagli by Uemuki
Uemuki Group has launched a new brand called Sedagli. Three days ago (Oct 2.), Adinsapo teased the taillight design of the company's new car. Alongside Adinsapo, LumiusRBLX, lushbeta3, and Alaconuriss were also working on the project.
Uemuki Group's automotive division had has a mild controversy over how many cars based on Adinsapo's CFC07 platform were releasing, specifically from Sonya over the years. Sonya has since stopped selling most of its CFC07 cars. Sedagli and Uemuki have remained radio-silent on the project save for a few leaks from the team on the project itself. The new automotive is called "FB29" but few outside the Uemuki Admin know what's fully going on.
Sonya has been forbidden to use the new platform.
Built by some of the best builders in the industry.
We have gotten no information on when the first cars using this platform will be releasing. CarBlox will follow up when we see the new cars arrive.
Chroma Constructor's League Looking For Teams
Over two months (or so) after the grand opening, CCL is still looking for teams. Currently, the league has it's own Chroma Racing Team, MART-Chroma, a joint team between Marvino Automotive and Chroma, Zanic Motorsports, and Aurora's Racing APEX team.
CCL posted an advertisement of sorts on October 3rd, so if you're interested in racing for your brand or team, check the link down below. The racing league is operating within the ROBLOX Automotive Industry more than the ROBLOX Racing Community, which could be a factor in the small amount of teams.
Possibly advertising to more racing-focused audiences may get more RRC teams either racing at CCL or partnering with RAI brands as well, though I am not marketing guru.
