The idea that the West will make our own batteries is a mirage. These things will always be made in the cheapest countries. All other factories will likely shut down.

A good review of what happened in the Mercedes plants. UAW will prevail it is just a matter of time, but this is worth the read https://www.labornotes.org/2024/05/alabama-mercedes-workers-lose-first-union-election

The first of many. I think all car companies will abandon having dedicated platforms just for large BEVs. It is a tiny market after all. Even small car platforms will likely shift towards fuel agnosticism, so that BEVs can be made alongside hybrids and PHEVs. Pure BEVs will shrink to a very niche sooner or later.

Danke für die vielen Rückmeldungen zu meiner Kritik an der #ShareholderValue-Kurzsicht bei #Boeing & leider auch #Mercedes!

Auch sieben Jahre (!) nachdem ich ein französisches #Elektroauto erwarb, sind immer noch keine vergleichbar günstigen, deutschen Modelle verfügbar!

Habe zu den verbogenen Philosophien der #Zeit und #Gier nicht nur in der #Politik, sondern auch in der #Wirtschaft heute morgen gebloggt: https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/enge-der-zeit-statt-technologieoffenheit-shareholdervalue-strategien-bei-boeing-und-mercedes/
