Finally, German luxury car manufactures are following the leader in Electric Vehicle. It took them a while to see the expanding EV market, and probably each one of them bough 1 or 2 Tesla Model S to study.
When was the last time an American car company set the bar for all car manufactures of the world to beat it ? So far none came close to the performance of Model S and the soon to be released Model X.
Quote:
Mercedes-Benz is reportedly working on a battery-powered electric with range 400-500 kilometer to challenge Tesla Model S.
A Mercedes-Benz-badged Tesla Model S is no surprise of course as BMW, Audi, and Porsche are all planning new electric models to scoop up customers in the inflating electric vehicle market.
Audi will serve up an electric SUV to challenge the $100,000 Tesla Model X, BMW is working on an i5 sedan with carbon fiber construction in both full-electric and hybridized flavors, and Porsche is developing an electric Pajun with the R8 e-tron’s drivetrain.
With more resources and established brand credibility, Germany’s new crop of electric vehicles could put a damper on Tesla’s sales success.
