The communist states/empire isn't far away is it? In UK recently we managed to knock back a Parliament that was pushing that...perhaps temporarily. If there was a disruptive policy on the horizon it will likely be the separation of the population from transport of its own requirements. I mean the peasant mass and their cars/holiday ships/planes.

There is no identifiable policy in UK for ICE replacement other than toying with EV for the rich. Supporting infrastructure (EV) is not debated or described. It gets randomly planted in car parks and odd places on the side of roads...mainly for taxis. Just imagine City suburbs where you generally drive either down the middle of the road or often the wrong side. Its rammed. Rural is left to waste as with broadband.

Then there's the 2nd hand EV car market where by then everything related will be cheaper? Tesla can disable theirs over the air....who else? Add in household Smart Meters that peasants have been sucked into....they are the only policy piece I recognise. Click - OFF

I was surprised to discover moments ago that many of the Hong Kong Toyota taxis are H powered. Advised by my son visiting HK today.

And now he has started delivering - Dave ๐Ÿ˜
โ€œTesla has delivered its first cars made in China, marking a major milestone for the electric vehicle maker. Fifteen Model 3 sedans were handed over at the company's so-called "Gigafactory" near Shanghai.โ€

So the Tesla Factory is being constructed, well at least the Site is being prepared. It was reported in the Press that a local schoolboy (Tesla Kid) was caught by Security making videos with a Drone and he was detained whilst the Police were informed. As he is only 13 years old he was too young to be charged. Musk โ€œTweetedโ€ back and the Guy has now been allowed to continue filming after Security Clearance - Dave ๐Ÿ˜‰

Duncho, Thanks for that ! I purposely sent the one in the post as it was the shortest, I watched some others (much longer) but did not include them as I thought members would get bored of looking at basically the start of a construction site. But for the Future it could be interesting. I watched the videos from a Czech Guy in Florida of the construction of a Big Hotel virtually on a daily basis from a field until completion it can get very interesting - Dave ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hey Dave, all good, healthy and safe, I suppose you too ๐Ÿ™‚. QQ is a bit getting old and I feel I should retire it as increasing age symptoms are popping up.
- louder front axle
- panorama roof blind is stacking when I want to close it
- engine valves will probably need to be adjusted
etc...

How are tou happy with your car?

Last week, Bloomberg reported that Tesla intends to bring its next Gigafactory Berlin, online by the middle of 2021. That would give Tesla in less three years manufacturing plants in the US, China, and Europe - Dave ๐Ÿ˜‰

Tesla have announced that the Factory being constructed near us is planned to be finished in July 2021. At present it is planned to employ 10,500 workers but possibly rising to 12,000 working 3 Shifts a day. Planned output is 500,000 Teslaโ€™s per year - Dave ๐Ÿคจ
Everything this Musk Guy does seems to turn to Gold :
โ€œCNN) Tesla CEO Elon Musk just zoomed past Warren Buffett on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index to become the world's seventh wealthiest person. Musk's fortune rose more than $6 billion Friday, according to Bloomberg, after Tesla's stock surged 10.8% to a record $1,544 per share.โ€
