If the educated guesses on the various EV news outlets are correct, the adapters are made at the Buffalo NY plant. If that's the case, there were a few rounds of layoffs there as well — including the people that run the machines.
You think other manufacturers will get access? That's funny.
Possible. Anybody's guess, but I'd guess it's unlikely.
My number is 4612 and I'm still waiting. I reserved the day they announced it.
Latest reports I've been hearing are about 4 weeks to get an A2Z. Usually good responsive communications though.
The Dieselgate payments in lieu of a fine have ended. EA needs a cash source.
I said no such thing. Learn to read.
Ha .. The A2Z adapter I ordered in late April for my late-June trip is finally being shipped - hopefully gets here by mid-June. Good luck with your order.
That's a little better. Some that recently got theirs said it was about 4 weeks. But that was on-time with their quoted estimate so sounds like they're getting faster.
They may have received that final $500M payment (of 4) by now, but each was 2.5 years apart and intended to cover that long (from 2017-2026), so I think they're probably OK for a couple of years still. But by 2026 or 2027, they better be making a lot more revenue to survive on (plus whatever taxpayer money they can grab).
Pretty much. The $2b was required to be spent on infrastructure and public education, with the vast majority going to infrastructure. It was not intended to be used as funding for any company’s day to day operations. Yes, the final payment is intended to bring them up to 2027 with some split between California and everyone else though I no longer recall the exact percentage (40-60???). I believe the public education terms were fulfilled ages ago.
