Rivian offering financing for pre-owned cars is interesting. I wonder if it’s at market terms or include some subsidies. This will increase used Rivian prices or residual values.
If VW goes under it most likely won't be due to labor costs, but to management's failure to take EVs seriously enough, early enough. If you're an employee and see the company as stumbling toward the grave it might make sense to grab as much money as you can, while you can.

Manufacturing has been leaving china due to the biden admin putting effort into pushing companies to leave china with regulations and taxes. Biden basically got NAFTA to work correctly as companies are moving some manufacturing to mexico instead of leaving it in china. Other countries that are picking up the chinese manufacturing are the US, canada, india, vietnam, korea, etc. Diplomats under biden have been making international trade deals to accelerate moving manufacturing and supply chains out of china. It has been extremely effective in nuking the chinese economy. The CCP is making everyone poor trying to keep the lifestyle of CCP members up.
