You're curious whether or not it's realistic for an 82-year-old automotive company with 122 worldwide production plants who produced 11.1M cars last year compared to Tesla's 254k can have just 8 facilities producing electric cars in ~2 years from now?
That seems like a fairly reasonable goal to me.
- beambot 7y agoInertia is a pain in the ass. VW has a lot of inertia...
- raaaaraaaa12 7y ago- hard constraint for VW could be to ensure there will be enough batteries from their suppliers - lacking infrastructure in cities
- calvinbhai 7y agoNot saying whether they can build or not. Will they have enough demand? There's nothing like a Supercharger network to make people buy so many non TSLA electrics. So, how will VW have so much demand to create so much capacity?
