Tesla’s China-Made EV Sales in July Surge 128% Year-Over-Year
Tesla’s sales of China-made electric vehicles (EVs) experienced a significant 128% year-over-year increase in July, even as the company faced a month-on-month drop of 31%, according to data from the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA). https://teslanorth.com/2023/08/03/te...sales-july-up/ I can't think of a more deserving country to go electric. Chairman Xi Jinping better get busy building those coal power plants to power all those Tesla's. |

Is a Tesla fake fart damaging to the environment?
Just asking for a friend. |

Doesn’t take much to sue these days but the range claim surprised me.
“Three Tesla owners have proposed a class action lawsuit in the US alleging that their cars failed to achieve their advertised ranges and that the company had failed to address complaints. James Porter, one of the plaintiffs who owns a Model Y, said that on one trip he “lost approximately 182 miles of range – despite only driving 92 miles”. The lawsuit alleges that Tesla breached vehicle warranties and engaged in fraud and unfair competition. It states: “Had Tesla honestly advertised its electric vehicle ranges, consumers either would not have purchased Tesla model vehicles, or else would have paid substantially less for them.” The complaints highlight the growing phenomenon of range anxiety, where electric vehicle owners fear their battery will not have enough charge to make it to their destination, leaving them stranded. The fear is particularly acute in places where electric car charging points are few and far between, and is considered a barrier to faster uptake of the new technology.“ |

A point of interest is that the i8 has been discontinued by BMW. A 3 cylinder turbo with electric motor, so a part EV that never really caught on, the main bugbear being the crippling depreciation from new.
Here's the gen on it. |

I would not be to quick to stick a fork in small displacement turbo's remember just about every form of auto sport we watch uses that technology. I agree BMW did a horrific job with the i8. I give then a B for effort and a D- for execution.

All I saw over here was older chaps driving them then I haven't seen them anymore, the leases ran out and a lot of them have just disappeared or are on dealer forecourts.

Another Tes EV shocker, new battery needed after just 48 hours after purchase, so car is a write off.
Ratarossa is not impressed. |

Pains me greatly to agree with you. Some how this looks like reality TV to me. This guy knew this was a issue when he bought the Tesla. Considering there is the promise of a future video, I'd say he had a plan from the beginning.
