Ok, thanks.


I just got a hint from german industry, the current VW and BMW insecurities also translates to OEM supply chains.

Bosch and ZF want to hire lots of chinese mandarin speaking engineers which they want to sent over to China to "learn" and forge cooperations with Chinese Automobile companies.

Timeframe 2025-2026 to make a shift similiar to BASF, away from germany and internationalize, South Africa, LatAm and China were mentioned.


All anecdotal as of now, maybe in coming month I can offer more solid plans.
btw,

What does American coupling look like? A giant E-SUV modelled after an American Military vehicle marketed with a ridiculously nationalistically named boost feature (Watts to Freedom) propelling the car 0-60 in 3.3s with a 6 figure price tag.

Truthfully, I think the Hummer EV is cool and it’s great to have a halo car, but they canned both the Bolt and Volt with no immediate replacements. Just useless for regular people, and a good illustration of what is going wrong with their automotive industry.

I could only imagine if Chinese companies adopted these conventions. Instead of the boringly named DM-O Off-road Hybrid system, “Long March Electric Liberation Hybrid”.

Finally, it seems that Zeekr will start selling cars officially in Russia after banning the sale of gray parallel imports.

Under the new NordCross brand, in addition to Zeekr, cars from Link&Co and Lotus will also be officially offered.

Geely seems to be less afraid of sanctions from Europe and the US than BYD, despite Geely's presence being much, much larger in these markets than BYD's.

Might as well sell to Russia as they're unlikely to ever sell to the USA.
