Description:
In this episode of Kilowatt, I discuss Volkswagen's negotiations with its labor union, the implications of keeping three factories operational alongside potential layoffs of 35,000 workers by 2030. We delve into NIO's introduction of the Firefly, a budget-friendly EV that incorporates unique battery swap technology and will sell exclusively through dealerships. I also address concerning allegations against VinFast regarding safety risks tied to structural flaws in their vehicles. Additionally, I analyze the current skepticism surrounding Cybertruck demand and the effects on dealership inventories. Updates on Tesla's factory construction and strategic partnerships, including a possible collaboration with Eve Energy, highlight the evolving landscape. Finally, I share my plans for CES, where I'll uncover the latest technological advancements in the sector.
