The Starting Line for Self-Driving Cars

Cars That Think

The 2004 DARPA Grand Challenge was a spectacular failure. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency had offered a US $1 million prize for the team that could design an autonomous ground vehicle capable of completing an off-road course through sometimes flat, sometimes winding and mountainous desert terrain. As IEEE Spectrum reported at the time , it was the motleyest assortment of vehicles assembled in one place since the filming of Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior.

2025 Leapmotor C10 Design Review: Pricing and equipment are big selling points for China’s latest Tesla Model Y fighter, but how does the rest of the package hold up?

But just to reprise for newcomers (welcome!), it was one of the many start-up Chinese EV makers with little success or profile until the global auto giant Stellantis bought in and announced plans to take Leapmotor global.

Comment on Nio ramps up car purchase incentives, launches 5-year 0-interest financing by John Hanna

CN EV Post

@CARS CARS CARS In reply to CARS CARS CARS. Doing what Tesla does could only make sense if NIO had a comparable financial underpinning. It doesn't Tesla can offer incentives and remain profitable selling pure EVs wherever it sells them. But on top of that, Tesla's target results look for different outcomes. Eg., The larger the fleet the greater the FSD learning velocity, and the sooner it can recognize huge hibernating profits as soon as its FSD adoption criteria are met.

Comment on BYD sells 300,538 NEVs in Jan, up 49% year-on-year while down 42% from Dec by Eugene Dihanov

CN EV Post

Truth is not very convenient to masters of JPMorgan analysts. Byd showed a stable 500k monthly delivery for a quarter already. 500 run rate x 12 will be ~6m in 2025 (not 2026). Granted, q1 will be low. But in q4 run rate will get to ~650k (assuming 30% growth). So 6-6.5m will be a back of the napkin estimate. Also with 66k sold overseas in Jan, I would expect overseas markets become a big driver over the next 3 years, offsetting slow q1 more and more. 2026 numbers will be in 8mil range, a small
