Moreover, Musk personally tested ID.3 and observed ID.4, an electric vehicle that will be listed at the end of this year.
Comments: So far, no person in charge of a traditional car company and Musk have developed such a close "basic feeling". One is the head of the traditional automobile manufacturer with the largest sales volume in the world, and the other is the boss of the electric automobile manufacturer with the highest market value and the greatest potential. Two sworn enemies are "in the same box"! This melon is enough for everyone. The so-called heroes cherish heroes, that's all.
3. Volkswagen China CEO and Li Xiang "talk from a distance"
On September 8, at the technical exchange and experience activities held by Volkswagen in Chengdu, Feng, CEO of Volkswagen brand China, said when referring to extended-range electric vehicles, "From the perspective of bicycles, extended-range electric vehicles have certain value, but from the perspective of the whole country and the earth, it is simply nonsense and the worst solution."
Although it is not explicitly stated, who it refers to will be known at a glance. Sure enough, on September 9, Li, the founder of Li, wanted to respond immediately on the social platform and sent a gauntlet to Volkswagen.
Comments: Neither the scheme extension nor PHEV is the ultimate ideal energy solution. The former is operated by a fuel generator, and the latter is that the engine and motor really work together and both burn oil, so from the perspective of environmental protection, neither side should say anything about the other. In addition, a careful analysis of their words will reveal that what Feng said is that from the perspective of the country and the earth, the increase in programs is not in line with the general trend. What Li wants to respond to is actually a "bicycle experience". Therefore, this is destined to be a "chicken and duck talk", and it is only a hot spot. Just look, don't take it seriously.
