I don't get thesr automakers, who is this made for, don't they see that tesla is killing it with their largr batteries. Why can't they put a 600miles battery with 2 motors for awd, get some fake noises/feels when changing gears, get some smaller rims with more rubber and put the best brake system for an 18" wheel - which I think is the Brembo Sensify. Keep the physical buttons for important features for easy access, add a huge lcd panel for navigation and include carplay/android auto wirelessly - done deal. Make it cost as much as a full blown tesla model s and call it a day - you just stole 90% of the market. Add quick charging system and then you just gotta start building better charging stations.

Wait tesla is killing them and if it wasn't for Musk going full adolf, he could have had the universal people's car.

No, it isn't.

It might be, if Volkswagen actually come through on their promises, in 20whatever.

I rather buy another Korean or Japanese car. As an European except for the electric r5 I have no interest in European car makers, much less from a company that should have disappeared after dieselgate.

First world countries will be scrambling to replace their high tech industries as China eats their lunch.
