Re: Hmm....

True, although it must strike you as odd that the car manufacturers seem to be doing just fine, as they sell (and increasingly, rent) us ever more expensive cars.

I also don't see how "radical players" can "disrupt" the EV market. The supply chains for all the essential EV components are truly huge and global. If anything, you could argue that it will favour the entrenched incumbents.

In summary, the idea that the "legacy" car manufacturers are quaking in their boots at the introduction of EVs is pretty silly. Do you really think VW, BMW, and Mercades-Benz are going to be totally broadsided by each round of new EU regulations??
