i checked out more car stores today. I saw Avatr, Zeekr again and Onvo.

I thought L90 was really a nice looking SUV. More spacious than I thought. It's not as long as M9, but looking inside, the entire setup seems as spacious as M9. Also Onvo stores are separate from NIO store. The staff is very positive for both L60 and L90.

Avatr really didn't impress me much. I tested out Avatr-11 quite a bit and it just feels like a very over-priced sedan.

Zeekr-009 is quite spacious, but again Mega Home is much better in the space management and such.

GM joins Ford in turning to CATL for batteries. They claim it will take two years for them/LG to produce their own.



Trump's policies have also inadvertently helped.

I think I heard somewhere might be from @tphuang, LG doesn't really have the background in LFP chemistry. Because of the lower energy density, it was not appealing at the time, but Chinese companies continued to work to make it better. However, LG doesn't really have that body of work behind them. Or did I make all of this up in my head?

Does seem like LG is partnering with a Chinese company

Have you tried any robotaxis? Not many reviews out there, I can only recall one where the person called it a "nightmare", but they seemed to be biased towards Silicon Valley.

3000 hp of disappointment again?
what are you talking about?

Its too heavy with the resulting driving dynamics.
keep in mind it had 4 x 240kW power before. Even with that, it went over 400km/h

no, they are only available in certain part of Beijing. I don't have the time to actually go there.

I'm more just checking out what the stores look like. NIO to me have the best store experience.
