“In September it opened a small assembly plant there, and the company is majority-owned by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, so it’s never going to run out of money.”

They set up a couple of photo-ops with Chris Brown looking at car feature sketches in a fake design studio.

It kinda worked because I thought FF went under a decade ago.

50 miles of range covers 99% of the situations in which these cars are normally used anyway.

Why do F1 wants fans to suffer watching races on horrible tracks like Losail ?

But how else are you supposed to listen to your favorite conservative/Christian radio hosts ?

You probably aren’t in Canada during winter.

Same here, will only use on long highway trips just to make sure I don’t inadvertently go too much above the speed limit, but not I don’t like it.

Totally agree on that, there’s so much races that it diminishes the value of each event, especially when there’s no parity. There’s also too many points being handed out.

Yes that’s true for most of their products, but not the EX30 which has been borrowed from Geely.

It’s also the same car as the Smart#1

They kept designing and building their own products with Geely financial backing, but this is a 100% Geely creation with a Volvo badge on it.
