minus-squarepokexpert30@lemmy.pussthecat.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·1 year agoHuh, after spending years not developing EV technologies? I mean good luck to them, but I don’t see this coming soon. Tesla is still far ahead in pure EV technologies (talking about supercharger network but also engines power and efficiency)

Yes, very good point there.
