  1. Oh, with VW a joint company. This can not go well. The avalanche always tries to pull his cooperation partner over the table and only suck the battery know-how of Tesla / Panasonic or as in the past with Suzuki experienced to snatch the customer base and incorporate the smaller ones. With the devil you do not do business. We know that since Gothe’s Faust.
