“Man kan inte utesluta att Tesla lägger ner verksamheten i egen regi här. Men några större effekter på andra företag är osannolika så länge svenska kollektivavtal förblir ansvarsfulla. Till sist: Hur skulle jag själv tänka om jag arbetade i en koncern med en oberäknelig vd? Helt klart skulle jag vilja ha ett kollektivavtal: inte främst för högre lön och bättre förmåner – utan för att sova gott om natten.” —Lars Calmfors https://www.dn.se/ledare/lars-calmfors-om-jag-hade-elon-musk-som-chef-skulle-jag-vilja-ha-ett-kollektivavtal-for-att-sova/ #tesla #musk

Do you know why I like the Cybertruck?

I am a 80s kid, I love the Countach (Cannonball Run is one of my favorite movie), I love the Delorean, and the design really just screams 80s retro future.

I've never sat in a truck before, because here there is no culture for it, but I would love to see what CT can do.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla delivers Tesla Cybertruck🚘to its first customers at a Texas event.

Elon Musk showcased the Cybertruck's performance. It engaged in a race against a Porsche 911, highlighting its speed, and underwent an intense towing test against an F-150, showcasing its power. The memorable moment came when Tesla's design chief threw a metal ball at the Cybertruck's window, showing its durability.

"if you’re ever in an argument with another car, you will win”

It “enables the worst impulses of US drivers and gives them the “freedom” to do whatever they want.

Breaking News: Sixt kauft keine Teslas mehr fuer seine Flotten ein!

Grund? Die Betriebskosten sind einfach zu hoch. Das liegt vor allen Dingen an den heftigen Preissenkungen Teslas, um die Nachfrage anzufachen!

#Tesla #Sixt #eMobility

Sehr geehrte Kunden,
wir möchten Sie darüber informieren, dass wir derzeit keine weiteren Tesla-Fahrzeuge anschaffen. Darüber hinaus bauen wir unseren Bestand an Tesla-Fahrzeugen in unserer Mietwagen- und Aboflotte aktuell ab. Wir bedauern diese Entscheidung, da wir wissen, dass viele unserer Kunden unser SIXT+ Auto Abo genutzt haben, um
Elektromobilität und Tesla auszuprobieren.
Zum Hintergrund: Die Nachfrage nach Elektromobilität liegt - und das registrieren auch wir bei SIXT - noch klar unter dem Level von Verbrennern. Auf der Kostenseite machen sich bei batterieelektrischen Fahrzeugen (BEVs) neben höheren Listenpreisen und Reparaturkosten die im Vergleich zu Verbrennern niedrigeren Restwerte bemerkbar. Diese sind durch Rabattaktionen einiger Hersteller weiter unter Druck geraten, im Falle von Tesla besonders deutlich. Dies führt in Summe bei uns zu deutlich höheren Haltekosten für Tesla-Fahrzeuge, die wir aus betriebswirtschaftlicher Sicht natürlich in unseren Flottenentscheidungen

If you read news, you’ve probably heard about Tesla’s conflict with Swedish union IF Metall.

It got me thinking about other examples of “the Swedish model” and how to explain it to, say, an American.

The spirit of the law is common sense to me: it is about markets being self-governing by the involved parties. The state is the keeper of the rules the players agree on. You can see it in government agencies like the National Board for Consumer Disputes
