Hennessey has increased the power of the Cadillac Escalade-V SUV to the level of the Bugatti Veyron (from 1001 hp). Cadillac makes the all-electric Escalade IQ with 750 horsepower, but Hennessey has unveiled its own version of the gasoline SUV with a souped-up V engine.

Following on from the H650 package released earlier this year, the Texas tuner has introduced the 1,005 hp Hennessey Cadillac Escalade-V. with 1193 Nm of torque.

The standard Escalade-V’s 6.2-liter supercharged V8 produces 682 hp. and 853 Nm. The more powerful Hennessey version gets a high-performance air intake system, a special camshaft, an upgraded exhaust system, high-performance catalytic converters and new intake valves. The H1000 kit comes with a three-year/60,000km warranty.

The price of this version has not yet been announced.

Yesterday Redmi officially presented the budget sub-flagship Redmi K70E, and today an unboxing of the device appeared on the Internet.

The photo shows a version of the Redmi K70E in Shadow Blue color – this is a shade of blue. How ITHome reviewers compare this color with jade.

The smartphone has a 6.67-inch screen with a very thin frame. Its width at the top and sides is only 1.3-1.35 mm – less than that of the iPhone 15 Pro. But at the bottom there is a larger frame – 2.27 mm.

The delivery set includes a branded case and a power supply that produces 90 W of power.

Let us remind you that Redmi K70E became the first smartphone based on the MediaTek Dimensity 8300-Ultra single-chip system. It is more powerful than the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2, and this should guarantee the Redmi K70E first place in the new AnTuTu sub-flagship rating (two models on the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2 are currently in the lead).

General Motors said its agreements with striking UAW and Canadian Unifor unions would increase costs by $9.3 billion through 2028. The company also announced a $10 billion share repurchase.

These data were announced after the signing of a new contract with the UAW, ratified earlier in November by a majority of 54.7% of the vote. The contract includes a 25 percent wage increase and future job security for union workers as they transition into electric vehicle production. The additional costs are about $575 per vehicle on top of the contract, which expires in 2028.

On Wednesday, November 29, GM said the six-week UAW strike had impacted its business, with earnings before interest and taxes estimated at $1.1 billion.

“We are finalizing a 2024 budget that fully offsets the additional costs of our new labor agreements, and the long-term plan we are executing includes reducing the capital intensity of the business, developing products even more efficiently and further reducing our fixed and variable costs,” she said. CEO Mary Barra said in a statement. “With this clear path forward and our strong balance sheet, we will return significant capital to shareholders.”

The American automaker plans to immediately repurchase and retire $6.8 billion of its common stock as part of a $10 billion buyback program. The remainder of the buybacks will occur before 2024.

GM also announced a 33 percent increase in its common stock dividend, from 9 cents to 12 cents per quarter. The increase is expected to take effect in early 2024.
