The driver was allegedly a lorry driver so he's no stranger to driving. Also note that the brake light was on the whole time, while the tesla just accelerated without slowing down.

Tesla claims the driver didn't press the brakes but I don't believe their claims.

They claimed the park button was jammed by the driver a couple of times but the car didn't slow.

On the other hand, it is impressive that the car didn't catch on fire with the driver still alive after such a crash. Lithium iron phosphate batteries technology helped limit the damage of this accident.

300 China-made new-energy vehicles from Chinese car maker SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile were unveiled at the G20 Summit in Indonesia as official vehicles, demonstrating the strength of intelligent manufacturing in China.

Air ev, a new energy model under SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile was appointed as the official vehicle of the G20 Summit to provide high-quality travel service for the G20 summit delegation and organizing committee, the company said in a statement told the Global Times on Sunday.

"We will see more Air ev shuttling in Bali, and we hope Wuling will become an important part of the ecological development of electric vehicles in Indonesia," Pratikno, Minister of State Secretariat of Indonesia said at the delivering ceremony in October.

As the first Chinese new-energy vehicle landing in the Indonesian market, Air ev (right rudder version) has received more than 4,000 orders since its debut, becoming the new-energy vehicle with the highest monthly sales volume in Indonesia, the company said.

In 2017, SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile established a company in Indonesia, becoming the first Chinese auto company to invest and set up a factory in the country to export intellectual property rights, brands and products, human resources and teams, business operations and models of Chinese auto industry, the Securities Times reported.

In 2021, the total export volume of SAIC-GM-Wuling exceeded 140,000 units/sets, with a year-on-year growth of more than 80 percent, covering more than 40 countries and regions.

The showcase of Chinese-made vehicles at the platform of G20 is expected to further promote Chinese vehicle companies to develop the overseas market, according to experts.

Chinese automakers are accelerating efforts to sell their vehicles abroad with China auto exports hitting a record high in October, data from Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) showed on Thursday.

The exports of vehicles from China increased 12.3 percent from September to 337,000 units in October, increasing 46 percent from the previous year, CAAM data showed.

Exports of NEVs, rose 1.2 times from September to 109,000 units in October, up 81.2 percent year-on-year, data showed.

Tesla China Engineers Go To Fremont Factory To Help Boost Production​

Around 200 engineers and production staff from Tesla Shanghai will be coming to California, the first as early as this month.​

Tesla will bring some 200 engineers and production staff from its recently upgraded factory in Shanghai, China to its Fremont plant in California (which recently built EV number 2-million). Thanks to improvements made to the Shanghai plant, Tesla China has managed to cut delivery times to between one and four weeks, from as much as 22 weeks earlier in 2022.

If you order a

in the United States, though, you may have to wait until next Spring to take delivery. Staff from China will start arriving in California this month and will stay for as long as three months, according to Automotive News, which quotes unnamed sources from within the company.

The Texas-based automaker delivered 343,830 vehicles around the world in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 35 percent over Q2 when it sold 254,695 vehicles. Most of this was down production rate increase in China, which wasn’t just attributed to the factory upgrade, but also to

and lifting pandemic restrictions in the second half of the year.

Unless Tesla is able to speed up deliveries in the US, it may miss its self-imposed goal of selling 50 percent more cars in 2022 than it did in 2021. That means it would have to sell 1.4-million cars until the end of the year, which currently doesn’t seem likely given that Nikkei Asia reported at the start of October that at that point Tesla had sold just over 908,000 vehicles.

Will Chinese staff be able to help enough so that

said that transport and logistics were the main obstacles – there just aren’t enough vehicles to move its new cars around, according to Musk; this doesn't seem like a problem Tesla could solve on its own.

According to a Reuters report, Tesla is also reportedly planning to keep its Shanghai factory (pictured in the gallery above) going at

(93 percent) all the way through to the end of the year, presumably to try to make up for problems elsewhere. The Chinese plant was reportedly able to increase its weekly output from 17,000 vehicles per week to around 22,000 units produced thanks to the aforementioned upgrade.
