Germany Is Losing the Electric Vehicle Transition

  > In 2022, Volkswagen lost the top spot in Chinese sales to BYD, a homegrown brand, for the first time. Not only that but BYD is also a leader in EV and batteries, and Tesla is even using BYD batteries on Teslas built at their Berlin's gigafactory [1] [1] https://www.electrive.com/2022/08/11/tesla-to-use-byd-batteries-in-german-gigafactory/ https://www.electrive.com/2022/08/11/tesla-to-use-byd-batter...

  Germany sat out the initial phase of the EV transition. Just like most of the US and Japan. I don't see any fundamenial problems once they decide to stop mucking around, same with Japan.

    One problem is the managers that were supposed to be leaders but in reality they are very poor accountants. Source: me.
