  1. The Tacal drivers and in the future the EQS and EQG drivers are not there anyway. This shows how it is possible to get along without subsidies: you just build cars that are priced and in the package so attractive that you do not need a dowry. Also the upcoming ID.Buzz would not really need her …

  2. Does anyone know if you still get the subsidy with the current delivery time of Audi from 1 year in Sep 2022 or whether the pot could be empty?
