RIP German economy, you deserve to vanish, especially after your silly energy-harakiri of getting rid of Russian oil and gas.
Not one put a gun on their head to enter China, now they are complaining about it
Y en que quedó el libre mercado y eso de que el mercado se regula solo y todas esas tonterías de la derecha ?
This is determined by the capitalist social system, capital is greedy, always moving in the direction of high profits, Tesla, Mercedes, BMW and Volkswagen are not spared.
The Americans carried out the greatest sabotage on the German auto-industry (and the German people) when they blew up Nord Stream 2.
When will the Germans have the courage to admit it?
China is investing on battery that can travel 1000km per charge. It will be game changer again
When I heard "French carmakers as Stellantis", I thought about how much Italy is disappearing from the industrial scene. Does the world really think that Stellantis is only French if it was created by an Italo-American AND French group? 🤔
The problem with German automakers is a problem with Germany as a whole. They don’t seem to grasp their current standing in the world. The days of German fine engineering and quality above everyone else are long gone. Japan, SK, and even China can produce fine machinery at a certain price point. Germany as a whole is a failure of leadership, and the tendency to look backwards instead of future planning.
Germany as a country and their companies are far short sighted than the Chinese. They tend to think about the present only, unlike the Chinese who thinks about 20-30-40 years. It’s totally German automakers mistake, not being as long sighted and not understanding Chinese strategies at the first place.
Believe it or not, China is the future of automobiles, not USA, not Japan, not Germany.
Vassal will always remain vassal .
For these Chinese experts in Germany, if they cannot understand the Taiwan issue, they cannot understand China, and they even call the unification of Taiwan an invasion. They should not invest more.
"Reliant on China" lolz you mean "wants the profits from selling to the largest population in the world." No one is forcing German automakers to sell in China… U want to sell in China for the Chinese Money. If China don’t align with your values and politics then stop sales in China… What are you waiting for.
Liberal democratic interests, my foot 🤣🤣
The Germans taught China and now they are learning from their own students…German needs China..Don’t let Biden convince you otherwise..
Shifting to India is the only option
I, a native Chinese , who owned an Audi A7 for 8years, now drive a Tesla model Y…. For me, Tesla is better and cheaper while German cars are expensive and outdated.. and I have test drive many local EVs like Nio LI and xpeng, to tell the truth, Chinese EV car makers will be the biggest nightmare for Japanese and German car industry….. truth hurts…. Btw… Tesla is still my favorite 😂😂😂
This is exactly the same mistake that USA did in electronic instruments, semi conductor industry and computer production , USA teach chinese companies how make these instruments and china grab the market from America, Japan did the same mistake in eleletric appliances such TV , refrigerator and .. china has no mercy with no one, now the car industry of Germany and Korea will destroy by Chinese, remember that Motorola company constitute first electronic pilots in china and trained Chinese engineers, now Chinese company , Lenovo , bought Motorola, Chinese bought English car maker ( mg company)
In Apple we used to mention that “what got you to where you are is not enough to keep you there”. This applies to German car companies too. The arrogance and hubris has brought them to this point, not China. Apparently India is one market they could dominate but they have their head way up their a… and are likely to miss that one too.
china 👈 The Virus Factory 🏭
German cars are garbage, but they will survive by switching over to Indian production of parts.
Wind? Not so much
Sun? Not too much, from April to September.
Nuclear power? No thank you.
So what?
Petrol and Diesel, do we have a choice?
In future, these German brands will either go out of business or be owned by China. I can see the day coming when Mercedes is a Chinese-owned brand (like Volvo and MG)
just control battery
I’m very very interesting with automobile industry
The Chinese government gives local car makers until 2030 to complete their transition to EV, and the foreign car makers has 5 years grace period after that (I think in response to Toyota’s plea) but the Chinese companies as well as consumers have less patience, I think in 5 years from now, the transition will be complete, by then if you are a car manufacturer selling in China, whatever the size is your EV sales, is all that you’ve left
This showed more the frantic desperation of Germany than anything. Like when one is screaming uncontrollably as he plunges down an abyss. In fact, most of Western propaganda nowadays are of this type… confirming everybody’s assumption the West is really on decline fast
Well. Germans car makers eat the Chinese beat … hydrogen is the future.
Chinese cars will capture the Russian market by 80%
Reminds me of the American car manufacturers in the 70’s losing sales to the better value and more reliable Japanese cars.
Great news!!❤
Blaming China for losing market share in China, what a mindset !
The narrative of Chinese market being a risky bet is a totally false imagination. The real risk is US and EU governments themselves, not China. So to be accurate, one may say it is a risky bet to invest and do business in China for western companies because you never know how low their own politicians back home are willing to go when it comes to being anti-China.
Actually Chinese manufacturers are leading the technology competition during the past 5 years, but which didnt bring profit. So now foreign brands are catching up. And now i have seen the ambitious of german brands, they are doing well to catch up.
German had been sleeping..
Thank you China for making nice car more affordable. here in DW all are double standard and racism
For China to catch up to Germany on the combustion engine will take 3 decades. As for the EV engine, everyone’s on the same level, you gain experience by doing.
My advise is don’t get involved in the US China trade battles, it will not end well for anyone who takes sides and get involved.
gimbabwe makes cars? i thought they made overpriced metallic junk boxesl
Guess what, Russia is Europe’s No. 1 economy now loooooool
China had a 20 year head start in EV cars? Why does the darling of Chinese EV makers, BYD, have a truly shocking history of their cars and SUV’s spontaneously catching fire? For the safety of North American drivers those vehicles should never be allowed on our roads!
l will never buy anything Chinese and I only purchase from companies that are made in USA, or made in friendly western counties, or if it’s absolutely impossible then a company that believes in China plus one meaning decoupling from the pos Chinese communists and building up another factory of the world with American capital.
What is wrong with taking advantage of your market? Didn’t today’s Europe benefit from colonising parts of China, and all of India, African countries etc ?
Secondly when Chinese car companies couldn’t compete you made a lot of money isn’t it ? Now that they are competitive, you should start becoming competitive rather than complaining.
We Chinese always recognize Germany is our teacher, our role model. We still have a lof of things to learn from Germany 😊
Don’t worry about these silly EVs. Germany will always lead the world in the engineering of diesel defeat devices…
The poor decision making, of the controlling entitled families that run German auto, will be almost nothing by the end of the decade!
Chinese EV cars are cheaper and better now.
I am a student studying abroad in China. If Western media still cannot recognize China’s technological strength and continue to view China as a patent thief, the West will become a complete failure by the middle of the 21st century.
Realy I like this video
So Germany victimizing itself because the student surpassed the master.
If invest in china is an increasing risky business, why the German manufactures are doubling down on investing in China? DW is talking rubbish.
China is working for a global eco-system and giving the world the electric car that is pollution free.
