    Maybe they should get Tesla involved too.
    Tesla is way ahead of those european car companies, when it comes to electric car technology.

    I have heard that either BMW or was it Mercedes.... Not sure, leaning towards BM'r, BUT one of them 2 has been working with Tesla on electric tech and Ellon allows anyone to use Tesla technology so won't be too much longer and we'll have MINI's that can do 0-60 in like 3 seconds :cornut:
