@@willl.3353 Unfortunately his ancestors got it wrong 😔! By pricing the Lightning EV pickup trucks too high and unobtainable by the average American assembly line workers! What a shame indeed. Henry Ford is not Resting in Peace he's looking from above saying look WTF have you done to my company 🙄!
In the mean time, GM is selling the Chevy Trax like hotcakes. At 21K ( base model), you get a lot for the $$$. Who cares about the power lift gates and lane assist sensors. The less the better. Crank windows and manual seat adjustments works fine. Never breaks down. Buyers also need to get down to earth and realize that half of those options aren't necessary.
@@bmw803 That's why your government has put surcharges on Chinese cars. So you can buy a car with fewer features and still pay a lot for it. A Chinese car is much cheaper and has more features. But you can't complain since you put him in the presidency.
Withou the mandate, it would take forever for German cars to move to EV era. And when they move there, it would be already too late as many ohers would have established their ecosystem.
What made VW what it is, was small economical cars. They need to produce what will sell, ICE vehicles. As far as the unions, they need to realize a 90% paycheck is always better than a 0% paycheck.
Agreed about Unions, but my problem is that top managers don't produce anything and they collect a salary of 10 workers. They never seem to have issues with paying their big salaries and bonuses. But, the worker making the product is always a problem. Maybe trim management and administration. Also, VW was affordability for high precision and outstanding handling/stability of cars on freeways. Between a Corolla and a Jetta, it's night and day.
It all comes down to this, VW wants to produce their cars overseas because the German government has made it very expensive to produce their cars on home soil.
Yes, and to it’s advantage the UAW is eying Chattanooga Plant into what will be of all the workforce; and yet Puebla is ready to also export one way or the other Volkswagen might look to Thailand to replace Germany.
I'm a huge VW fan, from the Golf 2.5 to the TSI turbo I had, fun & reliable, nothing but great cars, but sad to see them not use common sense & decontenting.
That's exactly what they are doing. Less vehicles at outrageous prices brought them record profits a few years ago. They won't go back. They would rather face bankruptcy. They all know a bailout is waiting.
Thats before the $20k markup dealers will add. You do want to be the first on your block with the newest VW don't you? Nevermind it will lose half its value in 2-3 years and you will be in debt up to your eyeballs.
My wife wanted to buy a new VW but was told she needed to wait 12 months for a Polo, T-Roc or T- Cross and 18 months for a Golf. They are not struggling to sell cars, the dealers just can’t get cars to sell.
For me the EV makers have to fix 2 big issues, one being the lack of charging station and two being the super high cost of battery replacement. I don't think that the majority of people are on board with EV's yet
well, if you want to satisfy 100% of all motoring needs yes, but you badly miss the point, 80% of needs can be met now. Besides, your now wrong on both items. Pay attention to whats happening now, not 5-6 years ago. Do you know why the chinese can now make EVs under $20,000? The price of batteries is constantly reducing......there are 68,000 official charging stations in the USA.....how many homes have a power point or two..........and increasing by 1000 per week. There are 178,000 gas stations in the USA........and decreasing.......check your facts before thinking like rip van winkle
Customers don’t want the pathetic attempts at EVs legacy auto are pushing. While folks are living paycheck to paycheck, all the companies are deciding that a 40K vehicle is now going to sell for 80k. They blew the EV transition. Meanwhile Tesla is growing and racing to design the process to create very affordable electric vehicles AND MAKE IMPRESSIVE PROFITS.
I will NEVER buy an EV. Driving an 8,000 to 10,000 vehicle in the snow is DANGEROUS! the closest charge station is 42mi away. In winter we get weeks of -30°F with -50°F wind chill so batter range drops to 100mi. Don't have a garage to plug it in at home. They cost 40% more than gas to buy, they cost 50% more to insure, they need $1000 set of tires every year. They cost 100% more to register every year. They cost more to fill up, it takes 4 hrs to fill up instead of 40 sec. Plus they burn to the ground in a crash. I'll buy a camary hybrid that gets 50mpg for half the price. And works everywhere. And I could travel with it.
Statistically, in an EV, the incidence of fire is lower than in combustion or hybrid cars. Now, in hybrids, the incidence of fire is higher than in combustion or electric cars.
The unions bear a significant responsibility in terms of company profits and the cost of vehicles. Ridiculous benefits demands, ridiculous pension demands, concessions demanded on numbers of employees to kept artificially high - all of these things, coupled with bloated management staff and stratospheric salaries for executives - all of it plays into the insane cost of vehicles. Add in unrealistic government mandates, the hoax of “climate change,” over regulation, and unsustainable government spending - all of it has pushed conditions the breaking point. $80,000 for a RAM Power Wagon? $90,000 for an F-150? $75,000 for a Jeep Wrangler? The average working family simply cannot afford these overpriced, overhyped, and in many cases, poor quality and high recall rate vehicles. All of them; workers, unions, and the government are at fault.
EVs are fine for inner city use, but for long distance travel they are hopeless. Most have a range of 250 miles before a complete recharge. Even in a small geograpgic country like the UK, this range is stupid. A trip from the south coast to Scotland will take three days!
As a consumer I can't do European cars no matter expensive or basic like VW. They work well for a while then they become an expensive parts cannon, expensive to repair. My ex had a VW beetle she told me that her car was under warranty for a part that had to come from Germany it took a while. But the part was $3500 if it wasn't under warranty and it was something to with the passenger door. My neighbor had two BMW's and had to drive to Calgary just to get the oil changed. Would have been cheaper to do it himself. I know there are people out there who love European cars but I would rather buy Japanese or American made cars even though some of them are starting to be built in Mexico.
Dealership network is too small, parts too expensive, not enough trained shop mechanics. And if the quality is no better than a GM product...why bother with it.
I'm not buying an EV. No way. Crazy depreciation. Even if I trade or sell it while it's still under warranty, the loss of value because of battery replacement kills the resale market. I'm not getting stuck with an EV. And I won't look at a used one unless it's free and the battery cost has dropped hugely.
opinions: I extended my lease for 3 months hoping prices would drop but they havent. Now my extension is up the end of the month. I can always buy my Q50 for a decent price 5K under what they go for. But I was wondering if there were ANY good deals out there so I dont have to.
The heard needs thinned out..2 many auto makers..and unions cause alot of the cost issues ..that's why so many more manufacturers will move plants overseas
The heard of overpaid and useless managers needs to be trimmed. They collect big $$$ and don't produce the vehicles. Also, tell accountants to shut the fuck up and do the accounting. When accountants run the show, you're in shit
If they make good car people will buy if not they don't care they get honda or Toyota or other yunk that doesn't have the check engine light on every day
Perhaps they can get rid of some useless managers. Downsize their real estate and especially pay freezes for top managers. It's always the front liners that are somehow a financial problem.. but, no issues overpaying top managers and massive bonuses. The workers produce the cars. Not managers.
The mandates are being ignored.... Yeah, because those cars only fit the lifestyle of very few. And the clowns making the mandates will have NO CHOICE but to keep pushing the date back FOREVER or they won't be reelected.
@@brianwashere7966 Yeah the very few and extremely wealthy customers are the only ones that can afford the so called, "affordable", Cybertruck! It's a toy truck for the wealthy Class Elites only. Off limits to Middle Class customers! 😌
Top managers could also take a pay freeze and they can also trim in the administration. That's where the financial problems are. Then, produce proper cars and it will cost less in warranty claims too.
@Volkswagen maybe you lot should i don't knowgo back to what made you lot great inf the first place perhaps the tdi's need to make a comeback also the new 9th gen golf being ev only wrong move make it available with both a manual option.
When single people have to spend $400 a month for food. Do you think that people can afford new or used cars NO! TIME FOR CAR MAKERS AND EMPLOYEES TO WAKE UP!
Who could have possibly predicted that trying to meet increasingly strict emissions standards with diesel cars that couldn't possibly meet those standards was a bad idea? Where did VW's executives go to business school? But at least they have the massive Chinese market to fall back on and oh no it's over 50% EVs now and no one wants VWs because they put all their effort into cars no one wants now.
Its the unions that causes these kinds of disasters. VW should close down the union plants and move them to somewhere they don't have the union problem. Send that work to a place where people want to work and make a living.
Full steam ahead for battery plants in Ontario. Our Federal and Provincial government has invested heavy in the VW battery pant in St Thomas Ontario and Stalantis in Windsor Ontario. Looks like two losers to me.
VW is simply does not build a quality product. In the US, their dealership network is too small, too sparse. All companies are experiencing quality problems, but VW is one of the worst.
VW's problems go way back to the crap they used to make at the westmorland plant in the 80's. The junk that came out of that plant is why Americans steered far away from the brand (me included). They never have got control of cost of ownership and the higher repair costs that have plagued the brand for decades. At this point, perception is a bitch. They can't reverse what is already done. They should leave the market and work on what little they have in the EU. They can keep Audi as its a better built brand from the same company.
Is not Volkswagen made in Mexico. Or do they still actually build Volkswagens in the EU. EV's work great in big cities and Europe as countries are small, but in North America, nope, too big to travel city to city. I do like the Atlas, but hate the safety collision electronics, as when a little snow gets in sensor alarms go nuts. Not smart enough to disable themselves. And the Atlas can't carry heavy loads. Had a rental for my work plus parts and tools and almost lost control after running over a duvet in the road and Atlas started bouncing around all over the road out of control. Rear suspension too weak

It's all because a hole CEO and Boardmembers want more money for their Benefits. They don't give a shit about buyers. The other problem as all Manufacturers put so many added options that fail. Manufacturers top brass want their stock prices to rise based on people buying poorly made vehicles. WTF, CEO'S making cheap vehicles with parts that fail. My best advice is to wait till Manufacturers make dependable vehicle.
@@mr.foxwiz1653 Right, this guy use to do vehicle reliability videos which were good. However you can only make so many videos about unreliable Audi and BMW. Now he is resorting to "click bait" videos to keep his channel running
I can't speak for Europe but Volkswagen sold in North America that are made in Mexico are garbage in the last 20 years anyway. And I'm not saying it's because they are made in Mexico ,those are modern facilities. I'm saying probably because the design sucks.
Educate yourself. VW Group: $360 BILLION in annual sales. $60 Billion in liquidity. 20% of Germany's industrial production. 300,000 group employees within Germany. YTD operating profit more that $7 Billion... Volkswagen Group is NOT going out of business. The employees are NOT on strike. With their high cost and jacked up governance structure, they may not pull down the gross profit percentage of Toyota. But "going out of business" is not in it's future. What the company said was, is that they "have one to two years to get their costs in line or they may not be able to remain competitive in the expected industry environment" and "will likely not be able to finance internally the huge future needed investments in the final transition". Do the research. It's amusing to me how armchair yahoos hype up news items to get the hits on their "look at me - I need attention" UA-cam channels. Dude go sit down.
You got it all wrong, you are not understanding the real issues with electric VW. Their software stinks, it has a lot bugs, style of cars is old and boring. Battery size is small. Quality is terrible. Why would you buy one of these when you can buy Tesla for small price?
I don’t think VW realized that software isn’t a part you design and machine and install at the factory and pretty much leave alone for the production run-like a subframe or a suspension arm or something.
Let’s see in the last year you’ve predicted Ford would go out of business. GM would go out of business dodge Jeep would go out of business. Volkswagen would go out of business and you’ve been wrong every time so maybe you should shut up and stop predicting. Because you don’t know squat.
Henry Ford kinda had it right. Make your vehicles affordable to your employees. Simple. Because that was the targeted market range.
