You can move fast, or u can move together - very rarely can you do both when you're inventing shit.
What if you let your competitors invent new tech, refine it and market it as if you're the inventor to the masses like a tech company based in Cupertino California?

Yes and what if we got distracted with grifting and politics instead of spending money on make our batteries any better than they were in 2015

It's worse on the highway for sure as it's constantly trying to engage the motor to charge the battery back up. On the 50e it seems to be better as recharge is not default and will let the car roll.

The batteries are bad on those. Seems like the going consensus on a pre 2020 is the battery will go bad, just a matter or when not if. And it will brick the car.

^Looking forward to their cars arriving here, especially something like a 7X or 009 (or even a 007GT). Hopefully their cars will be on sale around this time next year.

I'm looking forward to Zeekr coming to Canada as well. Geely already has their foot in our door as Volvo and (more importantly) Polestar anyway, so they already have some idea of what the Canadian market is like.
