The ID7 will probably never come to the US. There's very little demand for such a vehicle.

A U.S. congressional investigation released Monday found that carmakers BMW, Jaguar Land Rover and Volkswagen had used components from a Chinese supplier banned in the United States over alleged forced labor ties. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2024/05/21/us-forced-labor-automakers/

Just in case anyone thought these companies were ran by decent people. These are horrible corporations, and everything they do needs to be looked upon with suspicion.

Netter Blunder beim gestern Abend:

Das Auto hatte mal wieder einen seiner endlosen "Bitte Warten" Momente. Nach dem Neustart waren in meinem Profil die zuletzt verwendeten Adressen aus einem anderen Profil zu sehen. Bitte was?

Heute morgen waren dann wieder "meine" Adressen da. So ein Fehler ist gut dazu geeignet Bewegungsprofile der anderen Fahrer zu erstellen.

Prediction: Neither Renault nor VW will have affordable BEV cars anytime soon. If anything, they will abandon this sector. Affordable BEVs basically aren’t possible without government massively subsidizing them.

This was inevitable. VW will have to scale back BEV investment dramatically. Probably even more than what they're doing now. Their dedicated BEV platforms should be axed entirely.

Eventually, VW will realize that its "100% BEV future" strategy has failed. I suspect the next step is to abandon its BEV-only platforms in favor of multiple-purpose platforms.

Persoonlijk voor mij geen verrassing maar extrapoleer deze bevinding nu eens naar onze huidige systemen, we moeten er denk ik vanuit gaan dat in veel bestaande systemen chinese staatshackers ook nog aanwezig zijn.

VW und Mercedes-Benz sind schwach ins Jahr 2024 gestartet

Volkswagen und Mercedes-Benz haben ein schwieriges erstes Quartal hinter sich. Modellwechsel und Lieferkettenprobleme ließen die Erträge fallen. Doch die Hoffnung auf ein besseres zweites Halbjahr bleibt bestehen.

THIS IS WHAT TERRIFIES REPUBLICANS MOST

The UAW’s historic win in Chattanooga shows the power of the sort of multi-racial coalition of workers that has terrified Southern aristocracy for centuries.

@lolgop
govs try to discourage auto-workers from unionizing with the "threat" that if they do, automakers will just move/open plants in states where there are no .

THAT is an argument for forming a IN all 50 states, NOT trying to talk workers into continuing to work for less money out of fear of losing their jobs.

It's pretty clear whose side are on when they say that.

UAW clinches watershed union victory at Volkswagen Tennessee factory | Reuters

The victory will make the Chattanooga factory the first auto plant in the South to unionize via election since the 1940s and the first foreign-owned auto plant in the South to do so.

Volkswagen's factory in the German city of Zwickau is a rare case of a major car plant switching completely from internal combustion to battery power, making it a case study for a big question confronting the auto industry. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2024/04/11/tech/german-car-factory-electric/
