Traditional car shows were also back and in-person, notably the Paris Motor Show in October, which returned after a four-year hiatus.

"Renault had a very good presence," Mark Tisshaw, an editor at Autocar, said.

One of the highlights of the show was the presentation of the new Ford Mustang, which will go on sale next summer, and may be the last gas-powered version of the muscle car.The electric transition also made its way to the luxury car segment, with Rolls Royce introducing its very first battery-powered model on Oct. 17.

The day after this announcement, it's in Taiwan that Foxtron, a joint venture of iPhone manufacturer Foxcon and Taiwanese carmaker Yulon Motor, unveiled two new cars. Another newcomer on the EV market is AEHRA, an Italian startup which plans to release an SUV and sedan from mid-2025, starting from $160,000.It delivers up to 370 miles of tail pipe emission-free driving range on a single charge, according to the WLTP test cycle.With numerous new EVs about to hit the market, attention was also drawn to infrastructure problems.

They can provide ten-times the power output than the vanadium flow batteries, but like the battery in your smartphone, have a limited life span dependent on the number of charge/discharge cycles they undergo.In Dubai, Chinese company XPENG AEROH, organized the first public test if its electric flying taxi, called XPeng X2.Only a handful have been successfully tested with passengers on board, and it will likely be many years before any are put into service.
