Thread about the events around the recent #Twitter suspension of a few journalists. Please do read this and decide for yourself if it's really @ElonMusk who is the villain in this story.

1. Twitter already had a policy about doxxing private info before #ElonMusk took…

1/16 @elonmusk …over: Sharing ""home address or physical location info [...] that are considered private"" already was a violation of this rule.
2. Despite this rule in place, Elon said on Nov 7 2022 that he wouldn't ban the account following his plane for the sake of free speech. This…

Wiedermal die 4 wichtigsten Fakten zu #Technologieoffenheit und #eFuels:

1.) Für die Produktion von eFuels, um mit nem Golf 1.0 TSI 100km zu fahren, ist fast 6 Mal soviel Strom nötig wie für 100km mit nem #eGolf.

(detaillierte Berechnung unter ceo-plus.ch/co2vergleich)

1/4 2.) Über den gesamten Lebenszyklus betragen die #CO2Emissionen eines Golf 1.0 TSI, dessen #eFuels mit dem aktuellen deutschen Strommix (401g CO2/kWh) hergestellt wurden, …
- das 4-fache eines #eGolf
- fast das Doppelte eines Dieselgolfs

Gestern an einer Gewerbeausstellung. Organisiert von @_electrosuisse 👏 boten diverse Händler #eAuto-Probefahrten an. Die inzw. grosse Auswahl an Stromern ist eindrücklich & schön. @Tesla leider nicht anwesend.

Ich bin 5 #BEV‘s kurz probegefahren. Hier meine ersten Eindrücke: 1) #BMW #i4 M50:
+ enorme Beschleunigung
+ flüssige Bedienung
- Fahr- & Bremspedal sprechen zu schnell an -> sehr ruckliges & unangenehmes Fahren
- Rekup via Fahrpedal eher schwach
- sehr hoher Verbrauch
- Motorengeräusche 🤦‍♂️ (abschaltbar)
- hoher Preis für nen elektr. 3er

#CarMarketSwitzerland 2021:

Compared to pre-pandemic year 2019, entire market down by -14%. Only a few manufacturers could increase sales, #Tesla's the strongest with +37%. Ø hit of the players in the red was a whopping -29%, #Ssangyong the biggest victim with -95%.

1/15 #CarMarketSwitzerland 2021:

Comparison of Q4 shows that market decelerated towards end of year: Q4/21 down -31% compared to Q4/19. Ø hit the manufacturers in the red had to suffer was -39%, e.g.
- Audi/BMW -30%
- Ford -50%
- Mazda/Subaru -63%
- Mercedes -35%
- VW -38%

A friend of mine is interested in a #Ford #Mustang #MachE GT, so I did some research and learned of the following issues:

- There is currently a recall going on for the Mach-E regarding the windshield and the panoramic roof possibly flying off.

1/5 - Opening doors with phone or keyphob seems to work very unreliably.
- Unstable Bluetooth connection, so that phone-based functions (e.g. music, navigation via Apple Carplay) are often unusable.
- At CCS fast-charging stations, the #MachE charges only up to 80% with…

Today, a friend & fellow Tesla owner and I enjoyed a 2 hours test-drive with a #Polestar 2. Great fun 🤩

Our verdict: It doesn’t come close to a #Tesla for a number of reasons, but it’s by far the best non-Tesla #EV we’ve experienced. What we liked about the #Polestar 2:
- build quality
- hatchback
- good acceleration
- great recuperation on drive pedal incl. #OnePedalDriving capability
- good responsiveness of touch screen

This might help explain #Tesla’s valuation:

Excl stock-based comp, I estimate a Q4/20 operating profit (EBIT) of approx 1.7b. FY 2020 non-GAAP EBIT would amount to 4.2b.

Comparison with #VW's Passenger Cars division (25 models) 2019:
- 12 times Tesla’s deliveries
- LESS EBIT! If you compare revenue and operating profit (EBIT) on a per vehicle basis, the difference between #Tesla and #FossilAuto blows your mind!

How would the incumbents profitably sell #EV’s when their current profit margin with gas-guzzlers is only 600 bucks per car???

#CarMarketSwitzerland 2020:
After the great news that #Tesla achieved 500k global deliveries, I dug a bit into the 2020 car market data of🇨🇭and could discover really amazing facts.

Highlights:
- BEV market share Dec 20: 16%
- Tesla with huge push in Q4 & Dec

#CarMarketSwitzerland 2020:
Compared to Q4/2019, the market is down by 14.6% in Q4/2020, with declines of up to 64% (Lexus). #Tesla increased its sales by nearly 30%.

Bin gestern mal in die Tiefen der Spezifikationen des #VW #ID4 und des #Tesla #ModelY getaucht und habe Euch diesen Feature-Vergleich zusammengestellt.

Bitte auch Fussnoten beachten.

Comparison in english -> next tweet. Yesterday I dove into the depths of the specs & features of the #VW #ID4 and the #Tesla #ModelY. Even found some time to compile this feature comparison for you 😉
