The car industry was decades overdue a tech paradigm shift. The old powers have been around too long. All due to their stranglehold on labor which urges government bailouts and incentives. Tesla embarrassing Bugatti was the spark.

Chinese are making the same mistake Japanese did. Government insures companies on the car and still they lose money on purchases. We are in the 90's era jap for chink cars, amazing industry beaters the sheild a economy showing signs of stagnation and inequality

There is nothing inherently wrong or unsustainable about governments supporting their domestic industries. After all, governments who issue their own non-convertible floating currency can always afford to buy anything for sale in the currency they issue. Of course this doesn't mean they make the right decision about which to support, how much to support it, or what kinds of concessions said industry will have to make for said support, but it's something they can do.

Sounds like an identity crisis, if you want performance why would use a compromised platform to build it on? Who is this thing even for? You can't even use the excuse that it's for people who have no room for 2 cars because of the 6 digit price.

Government intervention in the economy should almost always be for national security purposes, it never helps productivity-wise to promote certain industries or companies, because competition is then stifled.

But at the same time you can get into a situation where the subsidized is going full retarded instead of staying in shape. It doesn't help that by creating shitshows like STELLANTIS you get more and more distance between the upper and lower parts of the company, resulting in a lot of internal friction.
At some point, a global megacompany is more of the stock and board holders seeking rent than a competitive company.

Nor do it help that GM, Ford and Boeing is generally not competitive, and is relying on their entrenchment to have enough of a economy to stave of long term loss of sales.

The distinction to "fast sport car" only exist because Engine could take up most of the car
When 100kWh is the floor, and the engine is barely bigger than the axel on both front and rear, that go completely out of the window.

At that point the body is just a piece of artistic choices, and not functional necessity. Which is different from a supercar where engine taking up half of the car necessitates a lot

All legacy car makers are restricted by all sorts of retarded US and EU regulations while the Chinese do literally anything that is needed to get ahead _completely_ ruthlessly.

That's why they're winning.

The Chinese aren't winning. Right now the Koreans and Japanese are winning. They've adopted to EV/hybrid the best and are hugely popular in the west. Nobody will buy a BYD Dolphin or what you call it when they can get Hyundai Ioniq or Kia EV3 for similar prices. So you're partly right. It's not so much the Chinese as it is the asians.

Those aren't performance sedans they're luxury cars. Nobody in their right mind is taking a Panamera that weighs like 2 tons, racing.
The closest thing you have there is a M3, and even then the last time BMW was serious about performance was 2 decades ago, these are cars for drug dealers and arab nepo babies now.
Pic is an actual performance sedan.

Who would spend 300k on a GTR? The whole legacy of the Skyline GTR and even the standalone GTR platform was that it could match perfromance of supercars for less.

Just because people aren't racing their 100k performance cars doesn't mean they aren't performance cars. I don't see anyone racing their Paganis but I would never say Pagani doesn't make high performance cars.

oh okay. so the only things that count as performance cars are cars that personally consider to be performance cars so that they don't invalidate your opinion
Anonymous No.28460546 [Report]

Yes. The only performance sedans are the ones in the lower/middle price bracket because they're cheap speed, easier for a manufacturer to take a commuter and upgrade it then make an entire new car. Anything that is 100k and above falls more under luxury cars because the focus isn't speed but luxury, some attention was given to performance but for the most part it's an afterthought at best. Hence why the new BMW M5 weighs almost 2 and a half tons.
Again 2 AND A HALF TONS( 2,435 kg (5,368 lbs)).
Does that sound like "performance" to you?

There was a Zonda GR produced for FIA GT racing in 2003 and it retired from the one race it entered. So you're right.
