Restricting central city driving? That would be an interesting aspects, not from all the complaining but what would Paris looked like in road design if that ever goes on for more than a decade, do we have city planning simulator somewhere for benchmarking? I know some realestate(not small scale or few luxurious skyscrapers billionaires but those 100 year old real-estate tycoon family owns 20% of the city
That type of monopoly business real-estate empire, maybe there’s few around, big developer, maybe not in the state but somewhere else where they allowed monopoly perhaps they should have these little expensive softwares to test what would city look like in 10-20 years. )
To be honest these things matters, if it’s reasonable government they’ll try to forecast city planning in a reasonable matter that works for everyone, if it’s monopoly real-estate empire they’ll try to squeeze all the cost to the max, makes it unaffordable for everyone.(building a sand island right on the lake just like Dubai? That would make our hotel 7 stars and we can charge 3k a night, genius! *sarcasm but it’s still a bit pricey*)
But hey, government…software… you know the whole deal, corruption waiting to unfold, no silicone valley talents wants to work for a city government, there’s no personal massage therapist and no swimming pool to relax in between works😂
have you heard the phrase an eye for an eye, an ear for an ear? China has huge tariffs on imported cars and force foreign automaker into partnerships, joint venture and local production. When China starts producing and exporting cars to those countries, you expect it to go barrier and restriction free? Only China gets a one-free-way? What a naive thinking. China got the trade war and trade restriction it deserved. If china doesn't like it, either drop the tariffs on foreign cars or go do partnership, joint venture and local production like it forced on foreign cars.
The American auto industry robbed people for years. I'm done with US dealers and manufacturers anyway, they produce garbage.
stellantis the 3 stooges of car companies.
when my wife was getting her audi suv serviced last year or so, so many in there complaining about e trons being broken. They tried to have us get another audi. we ditched the audi and got another Tesla.
Honda EV Urban concept looks kinda like that extremely cool/expensive BMW scooter CE 02 but maybe it’ll be less than $12k.
I’d love an EV scooter that looks like that but $12k is about 2x more than can be justified imo
Regular car sales are dropping drastically while luxury car brands are enjoying bigger and bigger profits. This speaks very loud about the distribution of wealth in this world.
I like the factual reporting.
You have standards HIGHER than news channel.
Just facts and context to support them.
Not surprising about Audi. I was recently in a showroom, looking for a weekend convertible. They don't offer a single sports car. A single convertible. Or a single 2dr coupe. Their RS collection is really feeble… aside from the RS6 Avant. I understand that most people simply need practical transportation, but Audi is supposed to be an aspirational brand. Their in-stock inventory consisted of mostly 4cyl crossover SUV's. Having been an Audi owner for decades, this was the first time I actually left the dealer feeling depressed and not wanting anything they offer.
I’ll hang on to my 96 Cherokee 4X4 Country thank you. Nothing beats the 4 Liter inline 6 cylinder.
I looked and those Jeep price cuts in no way has thinking of buying. I am sure the top 40% of wage earners could get a deal but those prices even with the cuts are out of the reach of 60% of the wage earners. Tesla has created an interesting Chinese finger trap. The legacy air companies have abandoned the small well built inexpensive car to build cars just for the well to do. Now if they try to compete with Tesla all Tesla has to do drop their price. Soon Tesla will start dropping their prices so they sell to those the legacy have abandoned. I would consider a Tesla my self until Elon choose the dark path he is on now. I ordered an Aptera that is at the top of my price range and if they ask more for it when production starts I will have to look at the Hybrid Maverick. If it gets to expensive I will look at the new refreshed GM EV.
Live election results
62k is still 15k to high.
EU also has government subsidies/incentives for EV’s😉
Don't work for money; make money work for you. Invest wisely today to create the freedom you desire tomorrow…..💯
Tell us how many chargers Biden finished for $$ billions spent ?
I'm 51yrs old. $40,000 weekly and I'm retired, this video have inspired me greatly in many ways that I remember my past of how I struggled with many things in life to be where I am today!!!! ❤️
Great content!
the AI voice read on your neoVI cloud ad is awful lol beyond parody
How are Audi resale values doing? We sold ours during Covid, so we did fine.
Pole charges should not have built in cables because they will get vandalized and stolen.
Byoc is the solution here. I think they do it in Europe already.
at the end german car industry had grown far more in the past 3 decades than anyone else.
VW was nothing in 1995 compared to now – no Lamborghini, Bugatti, Bentley or ducatti and seat and skoda were weak , audi also not in best shape
So it is only a question from which level you look upon the current situation – compared to the big three which are on the downturn for how many decades ?
4 or 5 at least and not better outlook except Tesla as the new kid on the block while Rivian is a niche player like all the others.
