Had a Volvo salesman contact me two weeks after buying the car asking why I didn't give him all 5 stars. I said I gave him 4 stars on the overview because I knew way more about the car than he did. I thought for a second he'd show up at my house as he was fuming! He said my lack of one star cost him a subsidized lease.

The "C rate" is universal, not just used in China. Please do better. It's a fraction of either a full charge or discharge in 1 hour. A 1C battery can charge or discharge in 1 hour. A 2C battery can charge or discharge in 1/2 an hour, or 30min. A 6C battery can charge/discharge in 1/6th of an hour, or 10min. A 0.5C battery can charge discharge in 1/0.5 of an hour, or 2 hours.
50k in 24 hours... That's more than were sold in all of 2024 in the US by Kia, BMW, Nissan, Toyota, Audi, Volkswagen, Rivian... Plus they are stills selling new 2024 Model Ys. That's why Tesla is up 4.39% today!
@7:30 This could tell us that Chinese buyers are dropping ICE in droves, demand dropping faster than the still impressive rate of growth in EV segment there. Eventually either EV supply fills the gap, or autonomy makes demand for vehicle ownership reach a different level of equilibrium.
So my sis just called me literally 5 minutes ago about a Tesla Y we checked out on Saturday at an used luxury car dealership here in New York with 4.8 rating on Google. The Y was in a frontal crash according to Tesla's service record eventhough the sales and manager we met on Saturday insisted the Y was never in a crash, have clean CarFax, original owner is a friend, and the replacement windshield I spotted was because they want to clean winter salt out of the gaps (WTF?). She said she feel disgusted because the manager was asking her about her kids and said he have 2 as well and how important buying a safe car it is... Personal opinion: no one good go into or last long in car sale. Everyone there is a crook
No mention of Model Y being the best CAR(EV or NEV) sold in China, the most competitive EV market? For perspective, this is like Bentley outselling Camrys and Honda Civics for no.1 spot. Absolute staggering.
Half of Tesla money comes from cars the other half is from selling carbon points, as car sales decline from them reselling old designs it will become nothing more than an carbon points shop, so I guess Ur right
Yep. Notice also that legacy sales are collapsing in China at the same time. The world's largest auto market - and growing in share - is done with flip-cars, smart cars are all the rage. This is a trend playing out across the world, but China's the leading indicator here.

@ There is complexity, but that complexity merely makes it even harder for legacies to adapt. Too many factors working against them: Internal politics/corporate culture, core expertise gap, dramatically higher costs involved vs phone market, materials side complexity, combustion focused factories as stranded assets, battery production considerations. etc. Any way you cut it, this is a big problem for legacies, they had over ten years to figure this out, and today they still have about that much gap to catch up, and some aspects of that gap they cannot overcome by just throwing money at it.

I was confused by this and asked why it didn’t work so the entire shop got aggressive and lost my business! I then found out that you must go to a good EV dealer and bought a much more expensive EV from them, thus losing income for the salesman that we liked originally at the other dealer!

One major drawback with the new solid-state batteries, is the swelling of the battery during charging and, ultimately the degradation of the cell after extensive recharging, lithium is a very toxic metal for the environment, not many countries want to mine it, 98% of lithium is not recycled and goes in to land dumps, lithium is very dangerous to recycle and not profitable because it is cheaper to mine than recycle, the huge amount of lithium needed to make just one lithium car is not sustainable for all cars, it takes 1000 gallons of clean water turned toxic just to mine or build one lithium car, just one ! this is just lithium and not including cobalt which is another of many other real toxic metals causing air pollution and vast water pollution when mined ( just horrible for oceans) better solution, hydrogen fuel cell, amazing secret about hydrogen fuel cell cars is that each car actually cleans the air as it runs due to it`s clean watered electrolysis when released onto the atmosphere, after all lithium EV batteries cars most are still connected to oil and coal grids.
