Hey Canadians, are you happy that Trudo banned these per US orders? They cost C$20K here in SE Asia. What new car or EV does $20K get you in Canada today, hmm?

[@bryanmiller2023]

VW just gave Rivian a chunk of money for their software... The two won't coexist in the same vehicle, it's a bit like they are competing with themselves or two different groups within the company are making deals without talking to the others.

[@davidrink1291]

To me it sounds like VW has realized if you can’t beat them, join them.

*Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires*

Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Lisa Annette Robinson, has been an amazing experience.

I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Lisa Annette Robinson 😊🎉

Imagine how many Americans would benefit and how many Americans would be harmed if Chinese-made electric vehicles were allowed to be imported into the U.S. market? I'd say almost every American will benefit, except for auto industry workers who will suffer short-term unemployment, but auto industry CEOs making tens of millions of dollars a year will need to find another place to show their tricks, and politicians who need money to campaign for their offices must find other donors.

[@pcstar123]

And these new EV companies would love to set up shop to manufacture cars in the local market, replacing old industry jobs with new ones!

[@danharold3087]

Why do you see US autoworkers having short term unemployment. To be competitive all car companies will be near 100% automation. Tesla in China is at about 95%. The jobs will evaporate.

You sound a little excited there Sam. Me too. However, my scepticism creeps in but also conflicts with Chinese business practices where you may sell with lower profit and work harder but also means your competitor doesn't make a sale. I would be more interested to see some sort of teardown to see how they made them with a lower price and... a comprehensive road test especially Aussie conditions.

How many $16000 cars would it take to pay Elon Musks wages? I think I've just established the reason that X-Peng can make a profit, selling this car at half the price of a TESLA!

[@paulb1951]

Elon doesn’t get paid a ‘wage’, otherwise he’d have to pay tax. You could try do some research before making such incorrect statements.

It all sounds too good to be true. At this price point, the quality of the used materials, parts, etc. raises question marks. Rather pay a bit more for products that last.

There is a huge difference between selling a car and saying you are going to sell a future car. They shouldn't be confused.

They didn’t sell 10k cars, they got 10k orders. It’s nothing like the byd seal, it’s extremely cramped in the back row and it’s way more basic. It’s a totally different class of car.
