Nissan, VW, Nio, and BMW in China

🥊 Nissan is getting competitive in the Chinese electric vehicle free-for-all. The brand revealed an electric SUV at the Shanghai auto show and pledged its commitment to the world's biggest auto market now and into the electric future.

Once the EV front-runner thanks to the pioneering Leaf, Nissan's Arizon concept is a high-tech herald of the brand's intended directions across markets.

🤼‍♀️ VW is also ready to throw down in the BEV ring. Their new 435-mile ID.7 sedan is calling out range anxiety for a 1-on-1 bout. The company's plans put it at 80% electric deliveries by 2030 and require offering a range of options specific to China, North America, and Europe.

🤺 NIO is ready to rumble, but not about to start cutting its prices. The Chinese EV company is unintimidated by Tesla's cuts and will maintain premium prices for its premium rides, according to CNBC's Mandarin translator after remarks from CEO William Li. 

🥷 BMW is ready to bring the pain with its most powerful EV yet. The new i7 M70 xDrive is a full-size sedan that’s also dropping at the Shanghai 2023 auto show. The company's best-selling model last year was the Performance i4 M50, which the i7 seeks to build on.
