Electric MPV Exeed concept is headed for production ... with its ingenious doors

As one who has been driving Nissans for over 50 years I am looking forward to EVs from China. I love the doors on the e08.

While the world wide recession may delay the Chinese EV makers from building EVs in North America for awhile by 2034 their local car factories may be as common as Nissan and Toyota are today.

You do realize the hypocrisy in hoping for EVs made in China, right?

I think the most accurate term to describe

Wish Fisker did qualify for the $7500 fed incentive as that would have been an even sweeter deal.

Pennsylvania rebates

Yup, I'll be applying for that one once I get my actual PA registration.

Two questions I have:
1) Why would someone get a tax credit buying a Tesla and not a Fisker???
2) Why wouldn't Teslas have a solar panel on the roof? To me that makes sense for many reasons.

Why do you say that most everybody here buys stuff from Charlie every time they go to Walmart?

American workers and Company.

Over 50% of most Teslas is made in house and North America. Advantage of a vertically integrated company.

90% of parts sourced in North America (65% US/CAD, 25% MX) and Manufactured in TX – Cybertruck may tie the #1 spot on the American Made Index. Model Y is also 90% and Manufactured in CA/TX (70% US/CAD, 20% MX sourced)




Magna Steyr builds the Fisker and production is based in Graz Austria.


I agree If you are going to build an EV with Glass roof put
solar cells in it.


Wow big difference on which state a person lives in buying an EV as far as getting rebates versus paying extra.

Careful there Kentucky, besides, that was Vietnam. I think you have your racial slurs confused.

I always laugh when people ignorantly bash Walmart, or Amazon, implying they only sell Chinese stuff, so they shop elsewhere.
Nice story… where?
Everyone sells Chinese stuff because it’s cheap and what consumers want…obviously.
My local Walmart, because it has an automotive, and grocery department, probably has a higher % American product than just about anywhere else in my area.
Target, Costco, dollar general, dollar store, family dollar?? Chinese stuff everywhere.
Even Autozone down the street stocks predominantly their house brand parts like brake pads, calipers…from china…. Even big name car parts companies are likely made in china,

Unless that was from an employee, it’s a sign of your neighborhood ….the state of your local society.
