I like a lot this VW-Xpeng deal. IMO its a win-win

Lastly, I assume that in the deal there are provisions for VW to buy more shares of Xpeng if it wants to do so
i would be surprised if VW doesn't end up with like 20 to 30% eventually


Indonesian president is in Chengdu today and meeting with Xi. But they will also meet with BYD execs. This is a big deal for Indonesia

Li Auto enhanced range EV‘s gas engine doesn’t drive the vehicle at all

I am going to be a lawyer-style weasel and note that I said "basically all" and not "absolutely all"
But I looked at a review of L9 SUV

It said fuel efficiency is 10 L/100 Km highway. That is pretty bad considering it is a inline 4.

Considering other 3-row SUVs:
Gasoline Grand Highlander (I4T) at 8.6 L/100 Km Highway
Hybrid at 7.0 L
Chevy Tahoe (V8 with Cylinder Deactivation) at 11.8 L

So basically there is a big fuel efficiency penalty to operate in a solely series setup, using almost as much gas as a good ol' USA BOF truck on the highway.

In other news
I bought an Autel Maxicharger and I see that they have already offshored their production to Vietnam. Quite surprised that a new product like this is already being produced outside of China (where their HQ is)
