      Their management team focus, ideas, visions, are aimed to up level. Most car designers are "bad@$$" guys, but management team who are $ oriented fellows are links who decide and approve (cost, profits, etc...) production model.
      If we didn't have Tesla cars on the roads I can guarantee you all major car producers still will be focused on ICE cars.

      You are there on daily basis with designer groups who work on car, and every line, volume must have a solid argument before it is proceed with "accepted". His knowledge of the car is solid, it has to be, because you can't be off guard in interviews like this without answer, explanation. You learning from every designer what every shape, surface is about, purposes.

      Not bad almost matches a tesla model 3 from 2019 then. That car got over 330 miles and car&driver showed it could do 190 miles of range back in 15mins. I wonder if it'll be as safe in crash testing as teslas are. Or if it has a heat pump and battery pre conditioning as standard. 👍🏻

    1.) All the photos and vids I've seen of the North American version (side mirrors instead of cameras) do NOT show a North American-sized license plate on the FRONT, only on the back. With the cooling louvres open, and the front-facing cameras and sensors unobstructed, is there enough room for one? How would it look / fit?
    2.) I've seen contradictory specs on the HP for the RWD-only version. One source says it's 149 HP, another says 225. Which is right?
    3.) For fuel economy and ride I prefer the smaller wheels, but for looks the larger wheels are better. Which wheels will be offered with the smaller version? Will there be a choice?
