Jaguar Land Rover & BMW Jointly Developing Electric Car Parts

I think this is the most unbiased article that I have read in quite a while. It was refreshingly... boring... unlike that Volkswagen opinion piece that some weirdo recently shared.

People demand "environmentally-friendly and cost-effective electric cars," which are not profitable. "Jaguar Land Rover announced an over $4 billion loss earlier this year due to a decline in SUV sales in China and diesel emission clampdowns."

A four-billion loss due to one country!

Quote:
The resulting partnership between the two groups allows them to keep costs to a minimum through shared technology development, production planning, and joint parts purchasing for transmissions, electric motors, and power electronics.

BMW is planning an ambitious rollout of 12 fully-electric models by 2025
Do we believe these Germans?

I ordered one gasket years ago and have received e-mails from AutoHausAZ ever since, but this is at least the second time that I thought they sent me a good article. It does not say who wrote this, but a Google search does not indicate they are using someone else's material.
