將電池成本自車價中拆分

長期以來，電池一直是電動車中成本最高的單一零組件，同時也是最容易折舊的部分。XEV 的創新商業模式透過將車輛（硬體）與電池（服務）分離，從根本上改變了這項成本結構。

消費者購買車輛本體，能源容量則以租賃方式取得。此策略可大幅降低初始購車價格，讓高品質都會移動方案得以觸及更廣泛的族群，從首次購車的年輕專業人士，到需要嚴格控管成本的車隊營運商皆適用。

XEV 管理團隊表示：「我們不只是製造汽車，更是在重新定義車輛擁有方式。我們的目標，是讓汽車生產像智慧型手機製造一樣靈活，讓使用者能依照城市生活需求，取得真正合適的產品，同時不必承擔傳統購車模式帶來的沉重財務負擔。」

3 分鐘恢復滿電：解決充電痛點

對歐洲電動車市場而言，里程焦慮仍是關鍵挑戰，尤其對缺乏私人家用充電設施的駕駛人更是如此。XEV 以其專有換電網路回應此一問題。

XEV YOYO 及即將推出的 XEV XPRESSION，均採用模組化電池系統設計。駕駛人無須在充電站等待數小時，只需駛入專用站點，即可在約 3 分鐘內完成全自動換電。

這項「換電」技術不僅節省時間，也能提升商業用戶的營運效率，並使車輛不受電池老化問題影響。由於駕駛人並不持有電池資產，因此無須擔心電芯壽命影響車輛轉售價值，進而為車主帶來「零使用焦慮」的體驗。

數據驅動客製化：終結「一體適用」時代

XEV 旗下車款專為歐洲城市狹窄街道與高密度壅塞環境打造。YOYO 車身尺碼約 2.5 公尺，能輕鬆穿梭於歷史城區。然而，車身小巧並不代表選擇受限。

不同於傳統車廠主推現貨庫存，XEV 採用數據驅動的 C2M 模式。使用者可透過線上平台設定車輛配置，自行選擇車身顏色、內裝材質、輪圈設計及特定功能。這些使用者需求將直接啟動彈性化生產流程，打造符合個人偏好的客製化車款。XEV 亦運用大量客製化選項所產生的數據，持續優化未來產品設計，並更精準預測市場趨勢。

商業應用：驅動最後一哩經濟

XEV 平台的靈活性不僅適用於個人通勤，也可延伸至快速成長的最後一哩經濟領域。該平台可支援最後一哩配送車輛與共享移動車隊。

XEV 可為物流企業提供專用封閉式載貨配置，車輛亦可依小型商業用途進行客製，例如行動咖啡車或零售販售車。對小型企業主而言，這類車輛可作為可依產業需求調整的行動資產，實質降低創業門檻。

XEV 已與多家歐洲大型物流企業展開試點計畫，驗證此模式在高頻率都會通勤與商業配送場景中的可行性。對汽車共享服務而言，YOYO 的高使用率適應性與低維護需求，使其成為按時計費租賃車隊的理想資產。其模組化設計亦有助於實現更環保的產品生命週期，可輕鬆進行維修與零件升級，延長產品使用壽命，並降低廢棄物產生，相較於傳統車輛在單一主要系統故障後即可能報廢的情況，更具永續效益。

面向新時代的策略性供應鏈

XEV 能夠實現如此高的靈活度，關鍵在於其策略性製造模式。公司採取輕資本策略，深度協作於成熟的亞洲汽車供應鏈體系，在避免傳統製造體系臃腫化的同時，兼顧嚴謹的品質控管與成本效率。

同時，XEV 亦致力於歐洲在地化布局。目前公司正於歐洲各地建立組裝據點與換電網路，以更有效服務當地市場需求。這種雙軌策略使 XEV 得以結合全球製造能量與在地市場回應能力，確保技術具全球規模，服務與基礎設施則真正落地在地。

上市資訊

XEV YOYO 已於包括義大利與德國在內的部分歐洲市場開始銷售與交付。公司亦持續擴展基礎設施，以支援日益成長、追求更智慧且更潔淨城市移動方式的使用者網路。

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 April 2026 – Hongkong Land and Gammon Construction have partnered to introduce CarbonCure to Hong Kong. Through this strategic collaboration, the companies are deploying the patented CO₂ mineralisation technology in Tomorrow’s CENTRAL project, marking its first use in Hong Kong. This alliance pioneers low-carbon building materials in the city and accelerates the wider industry’s transition.

Reducing cement‑related emissions without compromising performance

Embodied carbon accounted for 70% of Hongkong Land’s total carbon emissions in 2025, with industry research indicating that more than 80% of the embodied carbon in a typical new commercial building is associated with concrete, brick and steel. Cement production generates about 7% of global CO₂ emissions, more than three times that of civil aviation, making it a critical decarbonisation priority.

CarbonCure offers one of the most effective solutions, reducing cement content by 4–7% without compromising concrete quality or performance. The new technology injects captured CO₂ into fresh concrete during mixing, where it undergoes a chemical reaction to form a mineral, permanently trapping carbon within the material. When combined with a low-carbon concrete mix containing approximately 40% Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GGBS), a 34% carbon emissions reduction is achieved compared to traditional non-green concrete.

Implementing this innovative technology supports Hongkong Land’s target of achieving a 22% reduction in Scope 3 carbon intensity by 2030. It also aligns with Tomorrow’s CENTRAL project’s sustainability objectives, including using 100% low carbon concrete, 100% green rebar, and 100% sustainable timber during construction, and to divert 75% of construction waste.

Tomorrow’s CENTRAL: a project with sustainability at its core

Tomorrow’s CENTRAL is Hongkong Land’s bold three-year plan to transform the LANDMARK retail portfolio. Announced in June 2024, the project is ambitious in its scope, encompassing extensive façade enhancements, retail renovations and office lift-lobby relocations From inception, sustainability has been the project’s guiding principle.

The CarbonCure concrete mix technology was deployed by Hongkong Land and Gammon in November 2025 after it was approved by the Buildings Department in September 2025 following a rigorous 18-month testing and preparation period.

Michael T. Smith, Group Chief Executive of Hongkong Land, said: “Sustainability is a key business priority for Hongkong Land. Using lower carbon concrete on Tomorrow’s CENTRAL helps to advance the goals of our Sustainability Framework 2030. As the first developer to apply this technology in Hong Kong’s premium commercial sector, we continue to demonstrate our commitment to innovation and encourage wider industry uptake.”

Eddie Tse, Group Sustainability Manager, Gammon Construction, said: “We are delighted to partner with Hongkong Land on Hong Kong’s first application of CarbonCure concrete. Their strong commitment to sustainability and openness to pioneering solutions have been instrumental in making this milestone possible. By permanently mineralising carbon within building materials and reducing cement use, lower carbon concrete represents a meaningful step forward in embodied‑carbon reduction. With this successful deployment, we look forward to extending similar innovations across the industry and collaborating with more clients to drive low‑carbon construction in Hong Kong.”

見證11年水下研究成果 協力保育香港自然寶藏

香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年4月14日 – 由太古集團慈善信託基金資助，BLOOM Association 香港分會策劃的珊瑚魚圖鑑─《香港的珊瑚魚──114°E 普查日誌及圖鑑》（下稱「圖鑑」）今日正式發行。這是一本專門介紹香港本地珊瑚魚的科普圖鑑，旨在提升公眾對本地珊瑚魚的認識，並推動本地海洋環境教育與保育意識。

此圖鑑由114°E 香港珊瑚魚普查（下稱114°E普查）團隊撰寫，內容來自114°E普查團隊在2014年至2024年11年間於本港潛水調查珊瑚魚的數據和見聞，收錄來自91科，共422種珊瑚魚，當中包括九種從未有科學文獻記載其本地分佈的香港新紀錄（詳見附錄一），例如終其一生都住在珊瑚之間的五帶葉鰕虎魚（Gobiodon quinquestrigatus）和一種名為三點阿波魚（Apolemichthys trimaculatus）的神仙魚，顯示本地水域可能仍然藏着有待發現的魚類。圖鑑中的物種介紹圖文並茂，全書逾千張水底照片均於本港水域拍攝，每種魚的介紹都附有精心繪製的魚類插圖，協助展示魚的辨認特徵，是本地同類型書籍之首例，為讀者提供準確、易讀且具教育價值的內容。

114°E普查始於2014年，起初只有數名「柴娃娃」的義工，嘗試有系統地記錄潛水時遇到的珊瑚魚，至現時累計參與人數逾400人，潛水和對海洋生物的熱忱把這些來自各行各業的義工連繫起來。有鑑於近年社會上保育生物多樣性的意識漸增，而過去出版的本地珊瑚魚圖鑑亦多已絕版，114°E普查共同創辦人兼圖鑑編者之一佘國豪，便萌生了用歷年累積的普查所得製作新圖鑑的念頭。

佘國豪表示：「許多人並未察覺，海浪之下竟藏着極為豐富的的多樣性，若然市民大眾對我們的海裏住了甚麼魚種並無認知，談何鼓勵更多人支持海洋保育呢？」

這些年來錄得約400多種珊瑚魚，當中不乏市民耳熟能詳的物種，如海馬和小丑魚；亦有受着滅絕風險的瀕危物種，如紅斑和蘇眉。除了展示牠們水下的千姿百態和辨識方法外，圖鑑載有各種珊瑚魚的常見度，字裏行間亦藏着普查見聞和點滴，有的是珊瑚魚歷年的出沒概況，有的則是潛水員與魚的互動與生態故事，引起讀者的興趣和共鳴之餘，同時為香港的珊瑚魚留下歷史記錄。

另一編者姚偉康指，此圖鑑除了作為工具書，供生態愛好者和廣大市民使用外，他亦期望圖鑑的出版能促進對下一代的環境教育，為學校、教師及學生提供學習本地海洋科學和生態的素材，以及啟發更多聚焦本港海洋的研究和出版，並鼓勵保育措施，例如成立海洋保護區的推行，保存香港豐富的多樣性，確保下一代仍可能繼續享受和欣賞。

Bearing Witness to 11 Years of Underwater Research and Adding Nine New Species Records for Hong Kong

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 April 2026 – BLOOM Association Hong Kong officially launches the publication, Fantastic Reef Fishes and Where to Find Them—Field Guide of the 114°E Hong Kong Reef Fish Survey (hereafter referred to as “the Field Guide”). Funded by The Swire Group Charitable Trust, the Field Guide is a documentation of reef fishes found in Hong Kong waters, created with the aim of enhancing public understanding of local reef fish biodiversity and promoting marine environmental education, conservation, and awareness.

This Field Guide showcases findings of the 114°E Hong Kong Reef Fish Survey (hereafter referred to as “the 114°E Survey”), based on underwater survey observations and data collected in the 11 years from 2014 to 2024. It features 422 reef fish species from 91 families, including nine species that were not previously recorded in Hong Kong in any scientific literature (See Appendix I). The Five-lined coral goby (Gobiodon quinquestrigatus) which spends most of their lives in a small patch of corals, and the brightly coloured Threespot angelfish (Apolemichthys trimaculatus) are some examples, suggesting that there may still be fish species that await discovery in local waters. The book contains over one thousand underwater photographs, all taken in Hong Kong waters, and each species account is accompanied by meticulous fish illustrations to highlight key identification features. It is the first among local publications of its kind, and provides readers with accurate, accessible, and educational content.

The 114°E Survey began in 2014 with only a handful of volunteer divers, working to systematically record the diversity of Hong Kong’s reef fishes by scuba diving surveys. Since then, more than 400 volunteers have participated, coming from a wide range of backgrounds and brought together by a shared passion for diving and appreciation for the marine life. Seeing the growing awareness for biodiversity conservation in the city and the fact that previously published local reef fish guides are mostly no longer available in the market, Stan Shea, co-founder of the 114°E Survey and one of the editors of the Field Guide, conceived the idea of producing a new guide using the extensive data and photographs accumulated over the years.

“Many people are unaware of the incredible diversity beneath the waves. If the public does not even know what kinds of fish live in our waters, how can we expect more people to support marine conservation?” says Stan Shea.

Among the 400+ reef fish species documented by the 114°E Survey team are well-known species, such as Seahorses and Clownfish, as well as species that are threatened with extinction, such as the Hong Kong grouper and the Humphead wrasse. The Field Guide highlights the fishes’ beauty and characteristics, aids identification, and presents species’ sighting frequencies across years. It combines data with survey anecdotes, covering encounter patterns, ecological stories, and interactions between divers and reef fishes. These accounts engage readers while also serve as a historical record of Hong Kong’s reef fish diversity for this decade.

Another editor of the Field Guide, Yiu Wai Hong, noted that beyond serving as a practical tool book for nature enthusiasts and the public, he hopes that the Field Guide will also support environmental education for the next generation. It is intended to provide schools, teachers, and students with locally relevant learning materials for marine science and ecology, inspire further research and publications for Hong Kong’s marine space, and encourage support for conservation measures, such as the establishment of marine protected areas, to ensure that Hong Kong’s incredible diversity is preserved for the appreciation and enjoyment of generations to come.

Summary
Fantastic Reef Fishes and Where to Find Them – Field Guide of the 114°E Hong Kong Reef Fish Survey documents 422 reef fish species from 91 families recorded during underwater surveys in Hong Kong waters between 2014 and 2024. The book includes:

• Species accounts detailing features, characteristics, and providing identification guidance
• General information on local distribution
• Underwater photographs of reef fishes taken in Hong Kong waters
• Reef fish ecological stories
• Divers’ observations and interactions with reef fish

Purpose and Significance of the Publication:
BLOOM Association Hong Kong hopes that the publication will:

• Enhance public understanding of reef fish diversity in Hong Kong waters
• Support environmental education for schools, teachers, and students
• Provide baseline knowledge usable for reef fish research and conservation
• Serve as a historical record of local reef fish diversity for the past 11 years

The newswire’s ability to guarantee verbatim placement on authoritative news sites with high domain trust – ensures that key messages are cited by the AI models that now shape how the world discovers brands. This is a capability that is much needed now by PR, communications and marketing professionals,” said Pamela.

“With guaranteed news posting on real news sites, there is full control in delivering campaign key messages to maximise PR impact, in addition to achieving quality earned media coverage on top of that. I am inspired by the newswire service as a key partner for Southeast Asia’s most ambitious companies and strategic communicators in telling the region’s growth story,” she added.

The appointment follows the recent naming of Ms Kitty Lee as Managing Partner, Greater China, signalling a strategic push by Media OutReach Newswire to connect Asian brands, companies and governments to global journalists and audiences.

Powering the “East-to-Global” Narrative with SEO, GEO, AI Citation and Earned Media

Southeast Asia is producing a new generation of regionally confident, globally ambitious brands. At the same time, deepening trade and investment ties between Greater China and Southeast Asia are driving a surge in East-to-East communications, alongside growing East-to-global expansion.

Ms Jennifer Kok, Founder and CEO of Media OutReach Newswire, said: “We are witnessing a structural shift where Asia is increasingly driving global innovation, with Asian brands expanding their business across Southeast Asia, ASEAN, Asia Pacific, as well as international markets. Media OutReach Newswire’s Total PR and Communications Solution is focused on supporting these brands as they develop corporate and brand messaging that builds trust with journalists, editors, investors and customers.”

Recognising the importance of AI-citation, Media OutReach Newswire recently launched JSON-LD (JavaScript Object Notation for Linked Data) Schema Markup to enhance the technical infrastructure of clients’ press releases and optimise AI visibility. The company continues to focus on adopting AI across its press release distribution network, workflows, and post-release reporting.

As AI algorithms trust news posted on real media, Media OutReach Newswire’s guaranteed news posting empowers AI discoverability. The newswire’s guaranteed news posting partners in Singapore and Asia Pacific (APAC) include leading media Asia News Network (ANN), AsiaOne, CNA, Vulcan Post, MoneyFM89.3 , Malay Mail, The Sun Daily, Dagang News, MySinchew, Vietnam News, Vietnam Plus and The Manila Times to name a few.

“With a global press release distribution network spanning APAC, USA, Canada, UK, and Europe, as well as Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa, we are uniquely positioned to help Southeast Asian companies and governments build lasting brand equity and trust globally. I am excited to have Pamela on board to help our clients leverage our unique ability to power both SEO and GEO, as well as earned media, internationally,” Jennifer added.

Before her senior management roles at consultancies including Ruder Finn, Ogilvy PR and Omnicom PR Group over the past eight years, Pamela held in-house leadership roles heading Marketing and PR at airline HK Express, as well as Communications and Guest Relations at airline Scoot (under the SIA Group).
