  3. New Bev ? Only in the high-priced segment (SUV). What about the A1, A3, A4, etc. Not even in the PHEV area in the prior art. The A3 E-Tron was once the pioneer and now ? Almost 60 km E range only because the legislator pretends it since 2022. No CCS and AC only 2.8 kW, that can Mercedes Z.B. A250E better. Where is the projection by technology ?
