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

    I'm sure they invited Tesla to participate. The company has a strong "not invented here" mentality. Tesla has their own network of proprietary superchargers that are incompatible with everybody else.

    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:
