Renault showed the interior of the hybrid Austral with atmospheric lighting and Harman/Kardon acoustics
Renault has officially announced that the world premiere of the new Austral crossover, which will replace the Renault Kadjar on the market, will take place on March 8 this year. New photos of the cabin were also published, which will receive atmospheric lighting and Harman / Kardon acoustics.
The Austral is similar in many ways to the Megane E-Tech, however the vehicles are built on different platforms. The Megane is based on the electric CMF-EV it shares with the Nissan Ariya, while the Austral is based on a new version of the CMF-CD3 for internal combustion vehicles.
As previously reported, Austral will be based on the upgraded CMF-CD3 platform from Qashqai of the third generation. The car will only be available in hybrid versions. The base version will receive a 1.3 TCe turbo engine with a 12-volt starter-generator. There will also be a version with a 1.2 TCe engine and a 48-volt starter-alternator. The top version will be a full hybrid E-Tech with 200 hp.
The car will receive a digital instrument panel, as well as a huge display of the multimedia and entertainment system. It is known that the total area of the screens will be 774 square centimeters. The car will support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and will also receive built-in Google services, and access to most important functions will require no more than two taps.
The car will go on sale in the summer. In 2023, a seven-seater version of the Renault Austral will be released, with a coupe-crossover coming a year later.

A “completely silent” 1300W power supply. Cooler Master showed two new products, but only the youngest received a passive CO
Cooler Master brought power supplies to Computex that they claim are absolutely silent.
The younger model with a power of 750 W is really silent, because it simply does not have a fan. By the way, this is the company’s most powerful power supply with passive cooling.
There is also a 1300W PSU. It has a fan, but Cooler Master also calls it completely silent.
The secret to successfully cooling such powerful PSUs without too much noise lies in the use of an evaporation chamber. There are no other details yet, as well as no pricing data.
NASA’s SLS super-heavy booster is already over budget by $6 billion and six years behind schedule, according to a recent report.
A recent report generated by the NASA Inspector General’s review indicates that NASA’s spending on the Artemis program will reach $93 billion by 2025, including the $23.8 billion already spent on SLS through 2022.
Despite a successful first run earlier this year, the Inspector notes that the project involves additional costs and a further shift in the schedule. Moreover, if the existing problems are not resolved in time, this may jeopardize the entire mission of Artemis.
As for delays, out of the six years mentioned, five years of delay, and at the same time an additional almost $ 2 billion, fell on Northrop Grumman accelerators. The bottom line is that the SLS project initially involved the partial use of old equipment from the days of the Space Shuttle program. Of course, with the necessary upgrades. Northrop Grumman boosters were one such element.
The inspector blames the situation on the cost-plus pricing method and recommends switching to fixed prices. In general, NASA agreed with all eight of the inspector’s recommendations.

Exynos platforms will appear in a new type of device. Samsung to create SoC for mixed reality headsets
Samsung is going after Apple to release its mixed reality headset. The device will be released either at the end of this year or early next. There are no details about it yet, but it is reported that Samsung is also going to release its own Exynos single-chip systems for headsets.
Considering that these are only plans for now, the upcoming Samsung headset will apparently either rely on some foreign platforms or on existing Exynos SoCs.
However, new platforms for mixed reality headsets may not be entirely new. It is reported that Samsung has not yet decided whether it will develop these SoCs from scratch or simply adapt existing solutions.
