Jeff Bezos 2.0: New wife, newish job, old vision
Jeff Bezos lives by a simple precept: limit the number of things you would wish you had done differently when you are 80. He calls it, with habitual nerdiness, the ' regret-minimisation framework '. In 1994, it led him to forsake cushy work at a hedge fund to start Amazon. It is behind the big bets, from the Prime subscription service to AWS cloud computing, that have made the company into a technology titan valued at $US2.3 trillion ($3.5 trillion) and himself into one of the world's richest people. It also explains why, six years ago, Mr Bezos left his first wife of 25 years for a former TV presenter, Lauren Sánchez. And why he blew, on some estimates, $US50 million ($76 million) to rent out Venice for three days for their opulent nuptials starting on June 26 – the predictable antiplutocrat pushback be damned. The 61-year-old Mr Bezos presumably has an even better idea today of what his octogenarian self might regret than he did at 31, 41 or 51, when his 80th birthday was far off. To get an inkling of his current calculus, look at how he spends, first, his time and, second, his $US240 billion ($365 billion) fortune. Once the billionaire is back from his honeymoon, details of which are as hush-hush as the wedding was loud, he will return to his other love – Blue Origin. Mr Bezos has been a card-carrying space cadet since watching the Apollo 11 moon landings in 1969, when he was five. In 2000, he founded the rocketry firm – credo: ' gradatim ferociter ' (step by step, ferociously) – to make space travel cheaper with reusable craft. The ultimate goal is to enable humanity to keep growing in resource-rich and unpollutable space while letting Earth thrive as a planet-sized nature reserve. Until he retired as boss of Amazon in 2021, he blocked out the same half-day every work week (plus Saturday mornings) to turn this science-fiction into business fact. One of the reasons for quitting Amazon was, Mr Bezos has confessed, that Blue Origin was going about its mission too gradatim and not ferociter enough. SpaceX, a rival two years its junior, was sending dozens of payloads a year into orbit. Blue Origin had yet to launch any. Loading So in the past four years he has, by his own admission, been devoting 90 per cent of his time to Blue Origin. He wholly owns the company but does not run it day to day. That is the job of David Limp, whom Mr Bezos pinched from Amazon in 2023, where he oversaw various device-related projects, including the Alexa digital assistant, the Kindle book-reader and Project Kuiper, a satellite-broadband initiative to challenge SpaceX's Starlink system. According to people in the know, though, Mr Bezos is a de facto co-CEO, as well as troubleshooter-in-chief. He is constantly on the lookout for ways to make Blue Origin's four factories and seven field offices around America run more efficiently. It is hard, for instance, not to see his ruthless hand in the firm's decision in February to lay off a tenth of its 14,000-strong workforce. No regrets there, at least not for Mr Bezos. There have been fewer of them elsewhere in the business lately, too. Two years ago, Blue Origin was awarded the contract to develop a lander for NASA's planned crewed return to the moon. In January, it pulled off the long-delayed virgin voyage of its New Glenn rocket. It reached orbit on the first try (though the reusable first stage was not recovered in the manner that SpaceX now routinely deploys). A second launch is planned for August.

GWM Haval H6GT PHEV plug-in hybrid review and family road test
Don't miss out on the headlines from Motoring. Followed categories will be added to My News. Based purely on figures, this is Australia's best plug-in hybrid SUV. GWM Haval has thrown down the gauntlet with its PHEV version of the H6GT, boasting an all-electric range of 180km and a further 870km using the turbocharged petrol engine. Most key rivals can only manage half that pure electric range, including challengers in the BYD Sealion 6 AWD, Jaecoo J7 and the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Only available in one specification, GWM Haval has thrown everything into its flagship hybrid SUV, which starts from just below $54,000 drive-away. That's about on par with the Sealion 6 AWD Premium but more expensive than the top-shelf J7 ($47,990 drive-away), while there is also the Leapmotor C10 REEV Ultra Hybrid for $49,990. The Japanese-built Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV starts from $57,990 for the bare-bones derivatives, and pushes up to $74,490 for models with all the fruit. While the price is right, as are the numbers, our family test saw the H6GT throw up some challenges and frustrations. The lowdown What did you loathe? Kel ● Brake and accelerator pedals are too close together ● No wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, you have to plug in ● Strange new car smell Grant ● Wooden braking feel ● Cabin and driving functions are frustratingly slow to find ● Stereo and Bluetooth system sound low-rent What did you love? Kel ● Peace of mind warranty ● Ability of voice recognition to differentiate between passenger and driver ● Ample back seat space for adults Grant ● Price and ongoing costs are alluring for a plug-in ● Impressive acceleration response from standstill ● EV range the best in this genre What do you get? The standard SUV wagon has just been released starting from $50,990. For an extra $3000 you get the coupe-like rear. Some would be asking 'does my bum look big in this?'. The answer is yes … but we've seen Mercedes-Benz have success with its coupe-styled SUVs, as has BMW who were among the pioneers. There is no short of kit, among the best complimentary gear is synthetic leather and suede trim, power tailgate with hands free function, panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charger, dual-zone aircon, 12.3-inch main touchscreen and a 10.25-inch display for the driver, heated and ventilated front seats, head-up display and an eight-speaker stereo with wired smartphone mirroring apps. Some minor changes were made to 2025 models late last year, including GWM badges replacing Haval (matt black versions are used on the tailgate instead of chrome), and voice command technology was also added to the infotainment. The latter was the most important inclusion as it saves users from having to dive into the labyrinth that is the vehicle settings. GWM has sacrificed buttons in favour of modern minimalisation and finding the various functions quickly can be challenging. When it comes to colour options, white is complimentary, red, blue, black and grey are an extra $495. Capped price servicing is available, and remains at the lower end of the scale – the first five all are $400 or below, but the fourth jumps to $705 due to a range of fluid replacements and new spark plugs. Warranty coverage is above mainstream average at seven years and unlimited kilometres. Use a fast public charger and the battery will be replenished from five per cent to full in about an hour, while going from 30 to 80 per cent would take 26 minutes. A home AC charger can take a flat battery to full in six hours, but double that using the standard household power point – on test we saw just below 10km for every hour of charge. Interior features of the GWM Haval H6GT PHEV Ultra a 12.3-inch main touchscreen, 10.25-inch display for the driver, heated and ventilated front seats, head-up display and an eight-speaker stereo with wired smartphone mirroring apps. How was the drive? On paper the H6GT looks outstanding. Using the launch control it can rip from standstill to 100km/h in less than five seconds courtesy of 130kW front and 135kW rear electric motors supported by a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine, which collectively combine for a hefty 321kW and a muscular 762Nm of torque. They are massive numbers for a family SUV, but typically the call to set quarter mile records on the way to footy training are limited. Transitioning between petrol and electric power is all done seamlessly, and in the majority of circumstances the ride is smooth and the acceleration is punchy. Yet attack the corners with enthusiasm and H6GT suffers from body roll and the 19-inch rubber battles for grip, while a wooden brake feel doesn't generate much stopping confidence when you jump on the anchors. The brake and accelerator pedals are also positioned too close together. With a 12m turning circle it can mean more steering wheel twirling in tight carparks. The greatest frustrations came from cabin controls due to the lack of physical buttons. Finding various functions, like changing driving modes and turning on the seat heaters, was challenging and time-consuming through the menus. Shortcuts can make the job simpler but it still requires screen access. Achieving more than 1000km with combined petrol and electric power is possible, with the hybrid doing its best work around town and in traffic rather than long highway runs. Boot space in the Haval H6GT PHEV is on the small side for this size SUV, at just below 400L. Would you buy one? Kel: From the outset I was excited with the styling. But I found the driving experience to be mediocre and the new car smell was an acquired taste. Shortcuts through the touchscreen improve the functionality but I'm somewhat old-school and prefer toggles, dials or buttons. There were too many frustrations for my liking. Grant: There was a love-hate relationship throughout our test. Awesome electric range, punchy performance, and the ability for both driver and passenger to ask for various things – such as 'turn down the aircon', 'turn on seat heaters' and 'change to sport mode' – was cool. But really, buttons would probably be faster. GWM Haval has got so many elements right, but some of the typically easy basics made driving hard work. AT A GLANCE GWM Haval H6GT PHEV ULTRA PRICE $53,990 drive-away WARRANTY 7-year unlimited km, five years roadside assist, battery 8 years or 150,000km SERVICING $1980 for five, intervals annual or every 15,000km (first service is within 10,000km) POWERTRAIN Petrol engine, electric motors on each axle, two-speed hybrid transmission, AWD, 321kW/762Nm with 35.43kWh battery SAFETY Adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, traffic jam assist, auto parking, auto emergency braking, rear cross traffic assist, 360-degree-view camera, blind spot detection RANGE 180km EV driving, petrol 870km THIRST 0.8L/100km, 5.4L/100km on petrol alone SPARE Repair kit BOOT 392L, 1390L with rear seats folded Originally published as Haval H6GT PHEV plug-in hybrid review and family road test finds flashy but flawed
