And many EU producers will be competing in the US market with similar electrics.
Much of this is to transpire by 2021.

So, I contend they are trying to gear-up for the coming headwind cautiously, by investing in others that have been in the market (and are all non-union producers)
I find it surprising that a major revolution in transportation is playing out before me.
But, don't think the early models will all be great, but do expect them to evolve into something great in a very short period of time.

So the big change I think is the 'skateboard' construction concept. The key to it all.
