German automakers have everything they need to beat Tesla and yet I keep watching them doing nothing year after year. Oh yeah, the people that really build these companies in the first place were squeezed out it seems.
- castratikron 6y agoExactly. Engineers need to be in charge of engineering companies. Boeing is a case study in what happens otherwise.
- nickik 6y agoMaybe you are wrong in your assessment that they have everything they need.
- GoToRO 6y agoPossible. But I know how they operate and they loose a lot of effort on nothing really.
- singularity2001 6y agoMaybe you are wrong in your assessment that they are doing nothing year after year. Did any news of Volkswagen electric vehicles reach you?
- GoToRO 6y agoSure. Nothing was more pathetic than seeing a tv ad telling me about an electric VW car that I can not buy because it's not ready... This ad was preceded by another ad that was full of electric concept vehicles. None of it exists in reality.
- _Microft 6y ago> Oh yeah, the people that really build these companies in the first place were squeezed out it seems. There seems to be a misunderstanding about the age of these companies. Both are a hundred years old - the founders died long ago. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz
