This and more, here at <em>Green Car Reports.<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><strong\/><\/strong>This morning, we reported on something GM hasn\u2019t teased since the era of the original Chevy Volt concept: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencarreports.com\/news\/1135923_gm-patent-electric-trucks-evs-fast-charging-dual-charge-ports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dual charge ports, here for fast-charging electric trucks<\/a>. In a recent GM patent filing, it proposes a dual-port setup that could make the most of a double-layer pack like that in the GMC Hummer EV or upcoming Chevrolet Silverado EV. Furthermore, it could allow electric trucks to charge other EVs during fast-charging.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><strong\/><\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencarreports.com\/news\/1135919_mercedes-vision-amg-electric-sports-car-concept-ev-future\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mercedes Vision AMG concept<\/a> is a fast four-door EV that gives a glimpse of AMG\u2019s future\u2014both in design and tech. We see more than a hint of the recent Mercedes EQXX concept, but drawn into a performance car. AMG also verifies that it will be the first production model on a new platform exclusive to the German performance brand.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong><strong\/><\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencarreports.com\/news\/1135921_renault-scenic-vision-ev-concept-hydrogen-fuel-cell-range-extender\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Renault Sc\u00e9nic Vision concept<\/a> may borrow the name of the bulbous Euro-focused people-mover that arrived in the 1990s, but it\u2019s all about the future inside\u2014with a 16-kw hydrogen fuel-cell range extender supposedly enabling nearly a 500-mile range for a vehicle carrying a battery equivalent to what\u2019s used in the base Nissan Leaf. Sustainability is the theme, and Renault argues that the propulsion combination greatly cuts the carbon footprint of the product.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>_______________________________________<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Green Car Reports on\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GreenCarReports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Facebook<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/greencarreports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Twitter<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mercedes Vision AMG concept shows a glimpse of AMG\u2019s all-electric performance car future, while the Renault Sc\u00e9nic Vision concept claims to cut the carbon footprint while mixing in a fuel cell.
