Looks like Wuling Air had tough 2 months in Indonesia to start the year, but March sales picked up again. So far in April, they already got 500 orders in first 2 weeks

I did a comparison between the 2 after watching Wuling Bingo and Seagull. I'm pretty sure Seagull is the winner here in this sub 100k market. It will be very tough for anyone to survive seagull

In a case of juxtaposition... Underneath an article on the new Seagull, there was an article about the "advances" in e-scooter battery swapping in Taiwan.

Really made me think that Taiwan has fallen behind.

Gas scooters are still very prevalent there, while the mainland has not only left scooters behind, but now the Shanghai Auto Show is really a hot bed for EV news.

New controversy:

BMW Mini booth gave out free ice cream, told Chinese streamers they ran out but continued giving to white visitors

BMW said its a misunderstanding, training mistake, will be corrected


Tbh I think Chinese media should downplay this. It's a minor issue done by 2 small employees. Not a good look for every auto show to have some sort of controversy (like tesla's incident last time)

extremely worrying sales figures for NIO & XPeng, but they look great for Li Auto. Also Zeekr number is looking okay. I mean generally on the higher end, if you can see 30k a month like Li Auto looks to do at some point, you are solid.
Afaic Nio basically changes the whole lineup right now.
Of all models available and in stock, only buying et5 makes sense - even et7 is getting a refresh now.

Similar situation for Xpeng.
