Baidu alone in China probably has close to 5 million paid robot axis ride by now. It will be the biggest robotaxi market in the world..polls show A growing segment of Americans seems against green clean renewable these days. I wonder if Europeans will follow suit

@PelleGIT Actually you should state it as not all self driving all the time And self driving as in not having a safety driver behind the wheel CNBC Asia/China just had a video of Eunice Yoon take one of their Baidu robotaxis Where she took a robotaxis with no safety driver behind the wheel Where the American CNBC anchors were trying to bash the EV industry as per usual. With their questions to her

@PelleGIT also Wuhan just recently took away a restriction only allowing 9am to 5pm driving without a safety driver After 5pm a safety driver was required behind the wheel and before 9am a safety driver was required behind the wheel But I don’t think that matters because these cars use both visual cameras and LiDAR As she also took the robotaxi at night time/when it got dark

@PelleGIT (Because we the average westerner is too lazy to read past a headline) Go read just the recent headlines from Western Mainstream Media On Elon Musk’s Tesla trip to China (before you read the rest of this) Reading only those headlines You would get the impression, Tesla is introducing FSD and Robotaxis into the Chinese domestic market When Baidu the company the Chinese Government partnered Tesla with???? As of Q3 2022 has already done 1.4 million paid robotaxi rides As of Q3 2023 4.1 million paid robotaxi rides you really have to dig into multiple western media articles to gleen this real information… rather than Tesla is going there to introduce robotaxis 👇 Baidu starts offering nighttime driverless taxis December 26, 2022 Starting this week, the public can ride its robotaxis in Wuhan between 7 am and 11 pm without safety drivers behind the wheel. Previously, its unmanned vehicles could only operate from 9 am to 5 pm in the city. The updated scheme is expected to cover one million customers in certain areas of Wuhan, a city of more than 10 million people. Like most autonomous vehicle startups, Baidu combines a mix of third-party cameras, radar and lidar to help its cars see better in low-visibility conditions, in contrast to Tesla’s vision-based solution. In August, Baidu started offering fully driverless robotaxi rides, charging passengers at taxi rates. In Q3, Apollo Go, the firm’s robotaxi hailing app, completed more than 474,000 rides, up 311% year over year. Accumulatively, Apollo Go had exceeded 1.4 million orders as of Q3. TC

@PelleGIT Apparently Musk went to China to get that Chinese FSD data stored over there by Tesla since 2021 The Chinese probably said no we can’t allow that Chinese data to go to the USA so you can type up some algorithms But we will allow you to team up with Baidu who are already way ahead of you anyways This will help you compete in China vs Chinese EV makers Right now Tesla is level 2 Autonomous Baidu is level 4 Autonomous This should be no surprise to you China saved Tesla back in 2019 when it had production issues and gave it the biggest EV market in the world I remember because I was calculating monthly cash burn rates at the time 👇 Elon Musk revealed on Twitter Tuesday that Tesla was one month away from bankruptcy during the 2017-2019 ramp of Model 3 production. Nov 4, 2020 Foxbusiness 👇 How Elon Musk Built a Tesla Factory in China in Less Than a Year Elon Musk presided over a ceremony at a new multibillion-dollar plant near Shanghai—its first outside the U.S.—where Tesla handed over the first China-made Model 3 sedans to the public Musk’s charm offensive in China has appeared to pay off. Originally just a muddy plot about a 90-minute drive away from Shanghai’s city center, the China plant has quickly come online since it broke ground at the start of 2019. It took twice as long for Tesla’s Gigafactory near Reno, Nevada to begin churning out batteries. Back in China, Tesla has been winning various concessions from local authorities ranging from approvals to preferential loans — all the more notable given the trade war with the U.S. Fortune

@KingLutherQ you Americans ain’t to smart 95% of companies go bankrupt in the USA. But they ain’t allowed to go bankrupt in China???? You Americans may have lost that pioneer ethos….and give up when the going gets tough these days But stop projecting … Stop with the f ache news … There is still 200 EV companies left in China. They are doing the same thing when they wiped out your Solar Industry most EV companies will have to go under is the only thing I agree with your post This will create cheaper more innovative and better EVs The Chinese won’t quit for a few reasons the Chinese are East Asians they don’t give up because the going gets tough Their central Government just cracked down on their real estate. Where they have virtually no other investment options these days As their Government pushes them to invest there money in technology sectors where China already leads the world in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future already 👇 A brutal elimination round is reshaping the world’s biggest market for electric cars Analysis by Laura He, CNN Published 11:05 PM EDT, Wed April 24, 2024 But all of the country’s more than 200 EV manufacturers are now grappling with huge oversupply, and experts predict many smaller companies will not survive the fiercely-competitive environment.
