Small nit: they call it Jaguar Land Rover electric car, but everything seems to be about Vinfast a completely different company?
- AlotOfReading 2y agoVinfast is acting as a Tier 1 for Jaguar, designing parts of the front chassis. This guy was on one of the engineering teams.
- maronato 2y agoIt’s the opposite. Vinfast hired JLR to design their cars. This guy works for JLR and blew the whistle on Vinfast’s leadership not caring about the safety of VF6 and VF7.
- maronato 2y agoThe headline is clickbaity for sure. Vinfast hired JLR to design some aspects of their cars and the guy was one of the engineers assigned to it. On Reddit, he praises JLR engineering standards and says the problem was Vinfast’s leadership ignoring engineering concerns, always picking the cheapest materials, and skipping safety tests. The title makes it seem like JLR’s cars are the ones being whistleblown, which isn’t true.
