  1. The Chinese come, self-confident, with intelligent technology and attractive offers. Actually, they are already there with all the already bought companies, but now the own brands.
    Chinese Phevs are hardly able to do it, because the local competition is more attractive and equally developed, but Ki-Bevs will make it.
    The BEV future belongs to the KI, networking and dynamic data exchange, of autonomous movement not to be silent.

  2. The question is not what these cars have everything and can have everything according to the press kit, but whether this works in practice in Germany and brings added value.

    I only remember Tesla and her great autopilot, which still does not work in the approach today and cropped extremely here in Europe. The same threatens now in the US about an investigation of the traffic authority. Even Musk has granted that he is not satisfied with the current state of autopilot, “Not Great”.

    Incidentally, I find a hybrid with 150 km range extremely harmful. Because so you can get the internal combustion engine Greenwash.

  3. Find both vehicles an attractive offer, especially in interior. An ID3 must sink in front of the CAT in front of shame in the ground. Especially my wife pleases the extremely good.
    Personally, I fell in love with the coffee 01. I will definitely watch the beginning of 2022 live in Munich live. That’s exactly the variety Phev in which I see the future for people who would otherwise buy until 2035 burners.
    I think the coffee 01 and Cat would make themselves very well beside each other in the driveway and would probably harvest many surprising looks.

  4. If I were a car manufacturer who has so far with column dimensions, soft leather equipment with colored decorative seams or even with headupdisplays around the favor of the customers – I would be scared in these vehicles at these prices and be scared – yes, China comes in ride and is very tremendous!
