    Faraday Future Investor Aquires 51% of NEVS

      Evergrande Group in China has acquired 51% of the shares in NEVS AB in Sweden

    On Wednesday, NEVS AB announced that it has a new owner. Evergrande Group's subsidiary, Evergrande Health, the main investor in Faraday Future, has acquired 51% of the share of NEVS AB. NEVS bought the remnants of SAAB after Spyker, Saab's prior owner, went into bankruptcy. 

    NEVS has been using Saab 9-3 bodies to build electric vehicles for China.  They have manufacturing plants in Tianjin China and Trollhättan, Sweden with another under construction in Shanghai China.

    NEVS AB was founded in 2012 by Kai Johan Jiang when he bought the bankruptcy estate after Saab Automobile. Since then he has been the major owner of the company. Kai Johan Jiang will hold the remaining 49% of shares through his NE Holding company.

    Faraday Future and Evergrande settled a dispute over shares earlier this month that had put the future of Faraday Future in jeopardy.  Evergrande settled by reducing its stake in Faraday from 45 percent to 32 percent.

    Why? They were known for safety.

    No disagreement about safety, I just would have thought they would have wanted a nose that reflected them than continue to use the old SAAB Nose.

    That would require investment...looks like they spent a few bucks on a new grille and badge.

      Chevrolet News:Walmart deploys Chevrolet BrightDrop electric vans to service 62 million households nationwide.

      Great for Walmart and BrightDrop/GM.  I'd really like to see/read a review on an in-depth comparison of this versus the Rivian/Amazon delivery van.

      Those new Sierra EVs seem like one heck of a vehicle overall.  The price (obviously) and the app situation are really the only two downsides I see in that truck.  Well, bye bye freedoms! I'll see them on the other side! Hopefully they only make one trip to my house for my freedoms and guns. No point in making two trips.

      Unfortunately, that is how democracy fails.  When you dont want to worry about…well…about your rights.  It takes EVERYBODY in the village to protect democracy. I understand where you stand. But that kind of attitude and you will be kissing your freedoms away. This is what happens when too many dont worry about it and one nefarious individual with minions attempts to steal several rights away.

      I"m getting the Avalanche inspected today at the dealer where @HoLottaBuicks works and he let me test drive the Denali EV on a short jaunt. I came away very impressed... as I should since the sticker is $102k.  But beyond all the stats we know of about the EV drivetrain, the interior was very nicely made with nice materials and finishes. The exception being parts of the door panels felt a bit plasticy.   It rides like a luxury sedan, though I didn't put it into sport mode or anything to see if the suspension firms up.  I would need more time to explore the screens. It's a bit hard to navigate the main screen because a lot of the icons are the same color, so you have to actually read what the app does.   The back seat is much roomier than my truck.  I still object to having to buy a separate data plan just to use the apps I already use on my phone.  Overall it is a great truck, but $102k is a bit steep.

      I do my research on the candidates and vote. That's it. I won't throw a fit whether party B or party A wins. Just because I don't let it bother me, doesn't mean I don't "participate".  I'll let you do that for me, because I don't want to.
