Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"On April 4, the Chinese government ordered restrictions on the export of six heavy rare earth metals, which are refined entirely in China, as well as rare earth magnets, 90 percent of which are produced in China.

Sorry, but China EV manufacturer BYD just kicked Tesla’s ass around the block and then some.

They aren’t even in the same game.

Active magnetic suspension, 4-motor drive 1300hp, independent turning on every wheel. It can literally climb stairs, u-turn in place on a narrow road & shift itself sideways to park.

I would totally drive this beast if I could afford it. I don’t give AF that it’s chinese. Amazing tech. 😲

'KBA said on its website on Thursday that Tesla sold 2,229 cars in Germany in March, down 42.5% from year earlier. The number of Teslas sold between January and March 2025 dropped 62.2% to 4,935 units, compared with the same period last year.

By contrast, the total number of newly registered electric vehicles increased by 35.3% in March, KBA said.'

"if autonomous and electric vehicles do as they predict, all we will achieve is moving congestion more efficiently, with cleaner air."
