#1 ...The stories about Jaaaaag (IYKYK) have been slightly misleading insofar as apparently the idea was to completely wind down ICE vehicle production - before starting the EV production. In other words, ICE sales were going to hit bedrock as part of the plan. There would be a pause, and then the EVs would come pouring off the line.

Now.

I believe that Jaaaaag will produce some thoroughly amazing EVs. I also believe that due to their 'plan', nobody's gonna buy the damned things.

#3 Creating a market no one is interested in is marketing in a vacuum... The only people that will but it is the team that decided its a good idea. More than just Woke, leadership hiring and listening to bad leaders. Even non woke leadership teams fall into this trap.

#4 Agreed,49 Pan. The cleverer they are, the more they fall in love with the product of their own brains, unless management has a firm hand on the reins and reads deeply into honestly collected consumer research. Fashionable political nonsense is just one path to that business Hell.
