Dieter-Zetsche“What Elon Musk did, is taking batteries from consumer electronics, combining them to big packs with intelligent battery management systems. That is no rocket science.”

Wang-Cheng“Traditional automakers are under pressure to maintain growth and have not devoted 100 percent to EVs. The success of Tesla inspired both the industry regulators and players in the sense that a non-automaker can really make EVs work.”

Wang Cheng from the China Automotive Technology & Research Center explains why it would be useful for China to let companies other than carmakers take a stab at conquering the EV market, with Tesla being the best example that it can push industry and politics forward.
