🚀 Tesla's German Odyssey

Plus: Unitree's $16k bot, Unbiased China, Fisker in trouble again and more

Hey S3XY 🧤, In Germany, Tesla has been met with sustained opposition, with protestors urging the company to halt its Gigafactory expansion plans. Interestingly, these protests seem to exclusively target Tesla, despite its reputation for sustainability compared to other automakers. This raises questions about the true motives behind the backlash.

Critics argue that many protestors come from lower-income backgrounds and regions where electric vehicles (BEVs) are not yet prevalent. This localized perspective may not fully represent broader German sentiments.

Germany, a key automotive manufacturing hub in Europe, is wary of the negative impact these protests could have on its image as an attractive investment destination.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz has publicly voiced support for Tesla, expressing hope for a swift resolution to the situation and emphasizing the importance of Tesla's expansion for the country's economic growth.

And some other highlights from today’s letter 📨:

  • Storytime with Franz.

  • Nio CEO buys Xpeng X9.

  • BYD’s hatchback coming.

  • Tesla’s 0.99% APR offer.
