Solid state batteries do not have the same risk of dendrite formation, because they are single phase batteries. Solid-solid interfaces only form dendrites in relatively rare cases, and there are methods of altering the surface to mitigate this. But in liquid-solid interfaces, it's not like that at all. Methods to reduce dendrites are a frantic call to action right now, with people working around the clock to solve this problem, because the results are catastrophic. Case in point: BYD and Tesla cars exploding often. These companies can talk a lot about solid state batteries, but not one has made it work in the real world.

I disagree with you. I’m South African and personally have always driven German cars…most recently, my last two being a Porsche, before that a Mercedes C63 and Audi TT respectively. However, although I most likely won’t move away from Porsche, I have seen Chinese cars flood the South Africa market by storm but here’s the catch…South Africans no longer view them as cheap low end cars, in fact it’s quite the opposite as the perception of most South Africans has changed 180 (obviously not making any comparison to the three top-tier commercial car brands ie Mercedes, Audi and BMW). Cherry and Haval are the biggest brands flooding our market yet despite the models we see exported to South Africa being rather impressive, it’s nothing compared to the models (and different Chinese brands e.g NIO) locally in China or being exported to Australia. Yep, Australia car market is also big on China. My point is, gone are the days that China is known for fake replicas or low-end technologies…as mentioned before, my personal taste in cars is still German but I like many others fall into a particular class of car enthusiasts. Your figures may very well be correct wrt current stats but Germany should worry as it won’t be long before China cements it’s place on the global stage as being a car manufacturing giant, if not front runner in the industry. Ps: I should also add that historically, Toyota and Volkswagen have been the two biggest and most successful brands in South Africa. In later years, Hyundai seems to have eaten away at that market…currently as mentioned before, Haval and Cherry have overtaken and killing those markets as consumers turn towards the Chinese brands as a better and more viable option.

It's also important to note, Tesla made in China uses Chinese suppliers and components, this alone is a massive supply chain. China makes more EV batteries than the rest of the world combined, and with battery dominance, Chinese companies like CATL and BYD, can set the industry standards. BYD for eg, popularized the LFP batteries, this move pulled the rug out from the feet of Korean and Japanese battery makers who had smaller scale and focused on ternary lithium batteries. Now BYD's most affordable car, the Seagull will use sodium batteries, this again will shift the battery chemistry for low-end affordable cars. Another Chinese battery maker CATL, is now developing modular swappable batteries, once enough car makers use the CATL battery standards, it will create an unsurmountable protective moat for the company to direction control the most valuable component in an EV

@vlhc4642

CATL's condensed battery with 500 Wh/kg is going to dominate the high end, Sodium will run the low end, LFP will run the medium end, and traditional ternary batteries slightly better than LFP but much worse than condensed will be slowly squeezed out, which is interesting because everyone outside China are still building ternary battery capacity.

China started from a drastically lower base number of cars hence good percentage which is an easily abused statistic. Instead of replacing old cars, it's first time owners who don't have a choice. There are an insane absolute number of cars around the world that need replacement that aren't ageing out any time soon nor replaceable at such a pace even with bans, using percentage in this case is dishonest. There are material limitations with current technology that no amount of money will change without magical swapping of geological locations or extremely polluting mining practises.

This video completely missed the point. Chinese car manufacturers were not able to catch up in ICE cars because of the patent barrier that was over a century. In hybrid cars, Toyota also held the patent dominance for about two decades. Newcomers such as BYD and Chery were able to establish their lead because of their breakthroughs in hybrid engines, electric motor and battery technologies, for which they deserve the credit. It's not just about throwing money at things. Biden is good at throwing money at EV but it turns out that many American car manufacturers are eager to collaborate with Chinese companies.

I think this is often missed when economists discuss global markets and developing nations. A lot of the "learning by doing" barriers are really artificial patent laws and IP, which create a system similar to mercantilism. Even if the people in these countries are willing and able to create these products, they aren't allowed to do it because it will damage the profit margins of some multinational corporation with better lawyers. The only reason China has been able to catch up or leapfrog in some industries is that it is a large enough to either invest in new technologies aggressively or push the limits on IP while withstanding a trade war waged by the POTUS. Most developing nations are not in a position to do that.

All of Joeri's finger-counting was spot on in this video. Learning by doing!

Pretty good summary. Just a couple additional points: - whilst it is true that all foreign carmakers had to have joint ventures in China, this also was beneficial to them: a lot of the capital expenditure was co-financed and at least a couple of these automakers would not have survived the financial crisis of 2008 without their Chinese partners (GM? PSA? and Volvo / Polestar would definitely not exist anymore without Geely) - In terms of AI, I think that China has been quite successful but that a lot of the Chinese tech ecosystem is much more insular and focused on the domestic market - Many consumers now not only switch to EVs in China but in last 3 years, many now who have the money for a Tesla will look at other brands.

So BWM could bought shares from near bankrupted jonint venture partner huacheng and left its share in joint venturer to 75%. But outside Tesla no one foreign car brand want to start a new fully controled subsidiaries in China I guess majorly because high cost and already have partners in China so unnecessary

BYD founder Wang Chuanfu founded the battery factory, and did the world's first, and relying on this industry to succeed as the richest man in China, in 2014 to establish a new energy vehicle factory, well, now is also the world's first. What a crazy guy.

I live in middle east, 5 years back you hardly see Chinese made vehicles here. Lots change now and the Japanese and Koreans car makers apparently in panic mode now😂

Honestly good for China. Bravo for grtting into EVs early and seeing the opportunity as soon as they did! Kudos!

The gov support of EV cars in China can be traced at least 10 years ago. It's still early to say China's investment in aeroplane, AI and semiconductor is not producing similar outcomes, they are just at different stages. In the end, what makes China successful in these industries remains the same: huge market, abundant cheap engineer, high R&D investment both private and public, favorable industry policies etc. I would bet my money on China winning in all these areas in 1 or 2 decade.

What makes them "Successful" is not spending any money on R&D and stealing all their tech. Even then, they can't manufacture products that require precision engineering. That's why their new commercial jet, the Comac919 is made of 80% parts from the west. The same goes for products like the iphone. China can only assemble parts. All high end components, software and machinery comes from the west. They are very low end/ low value add manufacturing. Now that the entire civilized world is decoupling from them, the U.S. and the west is sanctioning them with high end components little by little. It's not going to be just chips. When they aren't able to get these components, it won't matter if they steal all the blueprints for items they want to make shitty copies of because they won't be able to get the parts they need and can't manufacture themselves. China's economy is collapsing and Xi is closing off China anyways. Soon China will be a larger North Korea.

Chinese brands are also taking a different approach now. Rather than fighting on price, they are positioning themselves as luxury options with lots of features. BYD cars are priced almost double in Europe compared to China. I think they learned from earlier attempts like SsangYong, although it might be a harder sell for now. However, it is clear to me that the attempts to block/delay regulations is only going to make the demise of European OEMs more inevitable. Prepare for huge bailouts as more people want EVs and Tesla, BYD and other Chinese players are there to meet demand at scale. Once ICE sales start to decline, the economics also start to turn around. Within a couple of years, those profit generators will incur losses and only those OEMs that built capacity to build 100% EV (of current numbers) have a chance to survive and thrive.

Great podcast [as always], as I am budgeting your podcast to my monthly expenditures. However, [Track 2:20-3;30] hits smack on the publication: The Innovator's Delimma, which is the title of an excellent book by Clayton Christensen [of HBS and the 'father of modern day economics]. The dilemma itself is the fact that though large innovators have some motivation to innovate, they also have a strong disincentive from doing so as new products will undermine their existing ones. Exemplary Use Case: Toyota and GM. The way in which Toyota made its entry into the North American car market (at the expense of GM) is a classic example of the Innovator's Dilemma. Toyota, when they entered North America and Europe, they didn't enter our market with Lexus's. They came in with rusty little subcompacts - the Corolla. I believe we are in for a repeat of history. I continue to be fascinated on how Western economy hegemony [ being a paralysis by analysis] is comparable to "frog in the low flame pot of water'. In a world of multipolarity, Western Metropols continue within this 19 Century Conference of Berlin mentality. Take off your blinders [befor its too late] and accept Global South economies as PARTNERS.

What gets in the way of survival. Ignorance and arrogance, like Nokia and Kodak

I mean not only China, South Korea and Japan today achieve economical growth success through active targetted market intervention and industrial policy. I dont think this disproves standard economics as the fundamentals are similar but I do think its outdated at modern times, like somehow we still think nation state still exists in this globalised era, although deglobalization is happening, it still doesnt deny that Globalisation made the world more like states within a nation rather than complete independent nation states, basically like a global less regulated, slightly more disconnected EU

But a few years ago I decided to go out on a limb and buy a Midea washer/dryer combo to replace my old ones. Well it's been 4 years now and I haven't had any issues with them, and they were about half the cost of any other set that I could've bought.

12:55 Wrong! If you think Diesel cars are not efficient or reliable, then you've never owned a 4 Cylinder Diesel of Mercedes Benz! Those engines are extremely efficient and reliable which is why they were used in german Taxis for decades. EVs might get to the same point some time in the near future.

Main reason why nobody was able to beat Germans in Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars is that ICEs are very hard to master. It requires a delicate balance between metalurgy and mechanical engineering to electronics to get an efficient yet powerful, durable yet easy to maintain engine. You can definitely build a B- rated engine quicky, but A+ engine requires enourmous experience and technology which Germans have since before WW2 times. They simply iteratively got better by pouring a lot of man-hours and building their industrial capacity around that. This lead is now eroded overnight by Elon Musk's Tesla and they're trying to catch up ever since. They're still good at building the chasis and aerodynamically shaped cars but these are very easy to do with powerful software. Design and utility are definitely their strong suit too.

The latest gen cars(EV or PHEV) like a bigger smart device(such as mobile phones), focus on the autopilot, merge lots of sensors' data and real-time processing, it's not the traditional cars now, it's live with OTA fuction, cars become smarter and smarter with the rapid update of the new firmware like a mobile phone update. You know which countries are good at smart devices, surely not the Japan or Germany.

Thanks Jeroen. Very interesting indeed.

China are implementing a marketing strategy called penetration, which basically means selling their products (cars) in a very competitive price while adding good value, the intention behind this strategy is to enter new markets and increase their market share, and in a few years they will export new and expensive vehicles to those penetrated markets.

Thank you! Finally a guy that's honest talking about that industry!

The Chinese car makers market price positioning is already starting to bear fruits in 2023. In Malaysia, BYD's growth has spurred massively this year. Although BYD's battery range may lag behind the luxury German car makers, smaller range battery would appeal to city travelling urban consumers. However, it would be interesting to find out in the future how well EV drivers cope with their car's battery replacement - which in many countries at this juncture would still amount to a downpayment for a new car.

You say the truth about battery capacity problem but the fact byd car's battery has lower capacity is because they use blade battery that never caught fire after crash 😂😂so byd sacrifice some battery capacity to have a better securitiey performance 😊😊 Thanks for your approval for byd

Not only EV,To be honestly The Chery Tiggo8 is far more powful and secure than all others in the same price range

The subscription model made the prices of the car very affordable. Along with the subsidy those brands could soar ahead. The model, the charging infrastructure, the availability also are part of the fact why the ev movement worked in China.

I like the content. I do think there may be too much downplaying though of current chinese EV export. The Tesla's are still created in china with Chinese components. Mote importantly, the big Polestar-chunk in export is not European as suggested. Polestar is Volvo owned which in turn is Geely owned, i.e. its Chinese.

AI: experts believe China leads or co-leads in most categories with the US. In 2015 they were nowhere in sight Aerospace: first domestically produced commercial aircraft is flying and being sold now Microchips: 7NM mass production started late 2022. In 2015 this was unfathomable. Most experts now believe China can achieve 5NM technology by 2025 which would have shocked the world in 2015 - and this is despite US sanctions. So I'd say they got plenty for their money

Chinese money invested in technology for the people, not for wars. Chinese cities are so much better, cleaner, better highways, bridges, safer. As seen everywhere, China is leading in mobile payment, face payment, better transportation with high speed rail all the way to Tibet.

If you have a home charging station, living in the suburbs to work in the city center, with a daily commute of 60 kilometers, charging only 5 RMB, less than 1 USD. It's cheaper than taking the subway. Electric vehicles only require maintenance once a year due to their simple structure, costing approximately 350RMB 50USD.

I rented some chinese SUV and was pleasantly surprised of the quality. The interior quality felt no different from Mercedes. My issue is naming and brand recognition. China needs to hire an italian brand expert, choose proper names and stick with the same name for decades so that it becomes a recognizable brand.

@@RighteousUncle The only strategy CHinese car makers can replicate is Hyundai/Kia. not Tesla. They can try to flood the market by selling less expensive cars to gain brand recognition and then worry about the rest later. It worked for Kia, and it should work for BYD if they have deep enough pocket. Marketing premium cars are very difficult to accomplish, a few car makers have tried and failed miserably as they can not overcome the problem of Economic of Scale.

There is another big problem for European ICE carmakers on the Chinese markets. As of July a new emission policy comes into force that will make a lot of their cars unselable in China. This is on the top of the problems they already have due to China's massive switch to EVs. Will be interesting to see what happens this decade! Btw, these are electric and not electronic vehicles. Apologies for the remark, but it bothered me quite a bit :P

You can't get a license plate in China with ICE. You may have to wait years. Plus, you may not be able to drive your ICE at certain days in the city.

11:30 thats a bit optimistic. EV's are still cars, not just battery packs with wheels. Large parts of it can be copied but actually running the production line and supply chain efficiently haven't gotten any easier. Even if someone doesn't like Tesla / Musk, its hard to argue what they did isn't impressive.

A good electric car is designed form the ground up though. Making use of the "free" structural integrity a battery provides, the increased need for good aerodynamics, the more efficient energy conversion and recovery and the additional space. While the German manufacturers still have advantages in a lot of manufacturing areas, there's a big temptation for short-term cost-savings by re-using parts better fitted for an ICE vehicle. In some cases this is probably even forced to keep costs from spinning out of control as they get hit by reverse economies of scale on their ICE production lines.

That is true but I think the point is moreso that electric vehicles are just not that comparable to ICEs. I live in Germany and the “death” of the industry is certainly overstated but many parts suppliers certainly do not have a good future ahead. EVs simply have way fewer and way different parts. ICEs are complex beasts and by comparison EVs are simple. I think what Tesla did is of course very impressive, there’s a very high barrier to entry in this industry and Tesla started before things like batteries got so much cheaper and more plentiful. But that has suited them well today as they are reasonably mature and can profit off the learning they did early on

What is impressive is their robotics, automation. Shanghai Giga Factories that ran better than Giga Germany, Giga Texas. Chinese factories have newer better robots. Raw materials are cheaper.

Quality over Quantity

It is called dumping. Chinese manufacturers get huge subsidies, which has created huge stocks that cannot be sold in China, and China is trying to dump this excess inventory on export markets, at well below manufacturing cost.

Excellent video. You and Electric Viking need to meet. One minor criticism: Why do you keep calling EVs “electronic cars”? It’s not wrong, since all cars are now computers on wheels. But the distinguishing feature of EVs is that they are electric, not that they are electronic.

This month BYD sold 239,000 EV's whilst VW sold 7,000 in the Chinese domestic market. Tesla sold 17,000. PRC accounts for 30% of the global market. Germany is being crushed by the PRC car makers.

recently i rented a Chinese car in Mexico, the cheapest rental available, but the car had all the features a car could have and the performance was better than my Honda.

What the Chinese EV companies are doing is no different to what the Japanese car companies were doing in the 1970s. Offer the world cars that are cheaper to buy and less expensive to use.

Just the few pictures of Chinese cars that you put out have already attracted me

Iteration isn't really the same as "learning by doing" i would argue that it's in fact the opposite: design iteration means doing cars the same way in order to save costs, and learning by doing would instead suggest to change once in a while in order to challenge your views and improve

There's more car sold in China than US and Europe combined. China could do the same thing. Difference is that like the video stated, 40% of Volkswagen Group's profit came from China. One ban and good bye to all those profit. Same thing could be happening for Tesla, Toyota and other Japanese automaker. Meanwhile Chinese automotive barely even touch US and Europe, a ban from those countries wouldn't even hurt one bits.
