Two models shipping from China

Tesla starts shipping $3,000 Cybertruck tent, looks nothing like what was unveiled

The World’s Most Important Industry Has a New Captain—and She’s Piloting It Into the 21st Century

Around us at Zephyros, kids and silverware clamor and motorbikes cough, but Marina’s voice is barely above a whisper. “When the hippopotamuses quarrel, then the frogs get stepped on,” she says of geopolitical conflicts, including the war in Ukraine.She’s sphinxlike, at times.

The Download: shipping China’s EVs, and new greener magnets

Earlier this month, a massive ship picked up over 5,000 electric cars from two ports in northern and southern China. Five days later, it passed through Singapore, and it is now headed for India.

There's rising appetite…

Why BYD is breaking into shipping

The Chinese electric-vehicle maker has been particularly good at expanding into different, related businesses. Not only can it make high-performing and safe batteries for cars, but it also does almost everything in house, from designing car chips to mining lithium and other materials.
