Tesla’s issues with faulty production and inconsistent quality extend outside the U.S. market: As first reported by Bloomberg, the automaker is set to recall close to 30,000 of its imported Model S and Model X cars from China, citing problems surrounding the vehicle’s suspension systems. Per a statement from China’s State Administration for Market Regulation—a relatively new and broadly empowered agency with functions similar to the SEC, CFTC, FDA, and USPTO in the United States—Tesla’s Beijing branch issued recalls for 29,193 Model X or Model S cars made between September 17th, 2013 and January 15th, 2018. The vehicles built during that roughly four-and-a-half year window may have rolled off the factory line with major suspension defects.
US electric car manufacturer Fisker unveiled its brand new Fisker EMotion electric car at the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas on Tuesday. Luxury car designer Henri Fisker has set the stakes high with the new EMotion as the company prepares to enter a market that has been dominated by Tesla. Fisker EMotion is equipped with the newest ‘solid state’ batteries, promising a range of 400 miles and the option to recharge in less than 10 minutes. The car is expected to be on the market in 2020 with a starting price of $130 thousand.
