Bug Bust

Volkswagen calls it quits:
VW’s profitability challenges come as consumer demand for EVs has weakened in recent years, with EV sales growing 50% in the first half of 2023 and 31% in the first half of 2024, far less than the 71% increase in the first half of 2022. As a result of this decline, the company walked back plans to sell shares in its EV business in January. The automaker’s disappointing earnings also result from increased Chinese competition in the EV market, the WSJ reported. Deliveries in the Asian superpower fell 15% in the third quarter of 2024, largely due to lower-cost Chinese options such as BYD’s 2025 Seal EV.
