Re: Hummer... rises again as EV
Let's be honest here (and I am a German car guy, I love quality, not sure I would have gotten myself a Lambo if Audi wouldn't be behind it): What Tesla and now GM and others do in the US is highly commendable and impressive. They are pioneers in the field in my opinion. The build quality and/or finish may not always be top notch but these cars represent a vision, a new mobility, the next decade, surely the next century.
German car makers always needed the pressure from Tesla and Co. to just start making EVs. They are getting better and I am pretty sure that at some point, German car makers will offer top quality high performance EVs and of course also EVs in the lower performance and price level.
Where is Mercedes with a EV G-class? Where is Volkswagen with an EV pickup truck? Just a few examples.
