近日，美国参议院投票通过了一项1万亿美元的基础设施投资和就业一揽子计划，这是美国数十年来规模最大的基建法案，也是美国总统拜登和两党参议员经过数月谈判后迈出的重要一步。这项法案将为美国扩大宽带接入提供资金，并为包括电动汽车、网络安全在内的其他重点领域提供资金。目前，该法案仍需美国众议院通过，而后由拜登签字成为法律。在这项“大基建”法案中，互联网和电动汽车产业占据着重要位置。疫情使得居家办公成为普遍现象，这也凸显了高速互联网接入的必要性。该法案将拨款650亿美元用于扩大互联网接入服务，不仅满足城市居民对高速互联网访问的需求，同时也将改善一些农村以及偏远地区的网络基础设施。

4万美元以下60%、4万美元以上100%……一直以来，印度对进口汽车的高关税让全球车企望而却步，也把美国电动汽车巨头特斯拉拒之门外。但随着更多车企加入游说的阵营以及特斯拉CEO马斯克在当地设厂的承诺，印度还是动心了。而对于这些“外来者”，即便印度这块蛋糕巨大，卖不动和造不出是必须面对的难题。作为最大的新兴汽车市场之一，印度对全球车企有着巨大的吸引力。当地时间周二，世界第二大汽车制造商大众汽车（Volkswagen AG）加入了特斯拉的游说阵营，呼吁印度政府降低电动汽车进口关税，以刺激对清洁汽车的需求。大众旗下斯柯达汽车印度公司总经理Gurpratap Boparai表示，即使将电动汽车的进口关税降至25%，也不会对印度国内企业构成“巨大威胁”，反而将有助于推动投资。

The Hydrogen Free Diamond Like Carbon Coatings DLC market is expected to grow strongly with the growth in the automotive industry, also increasing demand for high temperature coatings is providing huge opportunities for the DLC manufactures. The demand for hydrogen-free DLC is largely used by number of end-use industries due to its rigidity and wear resistance when compared to DLC that is combined with hydrogen. In the automotive sector hydrogen-free, DLC coating combines appropriately with the engine oil, which results in forming strong ultra-thin film when special oil additives are applied. Low friction factor and advanced abrasion resistance are increasing the demand for the DLC market. Manufactures in biomedical and automotive industry are aiming to use hydrogen-free DLC for effective working. Additionally, innovative technologies such as pulsed laser deposition and plasma enhanced CVD are expected to trigger the market for DLC

“我们也意识到在中国市场上有很多的车企在布局增程式动力车型。目前市场上的增程式技术与e-POWER技术最大的区别在于电池容量。理想ONE、岚图FREE的电池容量都在30千瓦时以上。与之相比，日产e-POW-ER系统的电池容量是1.5至1.8千瓦时。当前，动力电池的价格仍然处于高位，因此电池的容量变小，可以使电池成本大幅降低，最终可以使消费者以更低的价格购买电动车。第二点区别在于，电池容量变小后，电池占据的车内空间也会变小。这样的话，消费者可使用的车内空间也会相应变得更宽敞，驾乘体验更舒适。可以说，搭载e-POWER技术的车型在愉悦的驾驶体验与燃油经济性之间实现了相对的平衡。”近日，就日产汽车e-POW-ER技术与传统增程式混动技术之间的不同相关话题，日产（中国）投资有限公司副总经理佐佐木博树（Hiroki Sasaki）在接受媒体记者专访时表达了上述观点。
