RT @AfonsoEV_: Nearly-new Onvo L60 vehicles (some with less than 700 miles) are listed on second-hand market platforms with 39% discounts.…

@tunguz How about Robosexuality?

Nio has built somewhere between 3000 and 3500 swap stations in total. It could be that there are other areas where they are approaching profitability, but we can never know as the numbers are sealed like an Egyptian tomb. I have a bad habit of provoking NIO stock shills, take my numbers sit a grain of salt. (But also the official numbers)

@P_Kallioniemi That's why they have so many breaks and timeouts.

@Razormangan @TychodeFeijter What? That dealers purchase vehicles from a company with their own stores, in order to sell them at 40% discount a month later? That's the industry standard, nothing to see here.

@NIO_Worldwide Also very efficient in the "headlights per kWh" department.

RT @TychodeFeijter: Onvo owners complain about glut in cheap low-mileage second hand cars with $11K discount Something odd may be going on…

@TheAKardec @TychodeFeijter Either that or zero desirability for ONVO.

@electricfelix @xiaopenghexpeng If he misses a penalty, that's a sign that XPeng Battery Swap Stations are coming.

@Mattekingen @CnEVPost We can split it as already discussed ;)

@farzyness If transparency is your kryptonite, you are probably on the wrong side of history.

@hansbrattberg @alojoh @fminderop That's just sad...and also futile. Even a 90% sales loss would not undermine Elon's willingness to do what he considers right, righteous and necessary.

Oh boy. They claim ca. 60 swaps per day are needed to break even. Per station. 60 swaps add ca. 60 x 400 km = 24.000 km of range. With daily driving distances of 40 km, that would provide some 600 car-days. If they are building 1 station per day, they would need to sell some 600 cars/day to add enough capacity. 4200 cars / week. However, they are adding like 3-5 every day for which there are not enough cars being sold. Therefore the expansion of swap stations is a major negative financial impact. If they don't double or tripple their sales on a short notice, it's game over.

@aboongm1 @CnEVPost I'm simply repeating the NIO statement. If 5% of swap stations are approaching profitability, then 95% of them are not approaching profitability.

@niccruzpatane "Elon steps down from DOGE and retires from all companies after 2 Tesla cars are sprayed" Lol, what do these wackos expect? They will make Elon even more hardcore.
