How fast till the US bans
it doesn’t have to, it’s using the same influencer armies on social media that it uses to sway elections in favor of fascists to denigrate olinia’s appearance/capabilities to convince people not to consider it in the first place. if the current trends hold, olinia will just be another footnote in mexican automotive history.
Congratulations to Mexico for becoming an automaking country
I’ve been anti-car my entire life. But as time has gone on I’ve started to see the reasoning behind the pro-car people. Having a space to yourself is nice. I’ve been thinking about what it would take to make cars less bad for society.
Those factors are:
- Resolving the traffic issue and the impact the traffic issue has on housing supply.
- The microplastics from tires.
- The cost of vehicles.
Obviously this would resolve the cost issue. A $9,000 EV is around the level of a very expensive e-bike. The battery being half the size of the BYD Atto 1 Essential (an already smaller than average) is probably a step in the right direction for microplastics too.
I’m hopeful for the future.
I wonder if Mexico could start exporting them to Australia/NZ/Indonesia? We’re only just over the pacific.
The Bestune Pony/Mini sells for less than that, half as much in its home market. Don’t they get it in Mexico?Never mind, this is a bigger car and depending on your needs, more practical. Best of luck to Mexico.
