Tesla sales boomed in 2022 despite delivering more promises than new products, though its share price is dropping to a more realistic level. There are signs the legacy American car makers are getting serious on the EV front too, with Ford’s Mustang Mach-E a big hit and GM offering EVs from small to massive .
Lamborghini, which had a very strong 2022, thank you very much, joined an odd trend: creating off-road supercars. Breaking away from the traditional car dealer system has been another international trend, with a general move to online selling and fixed pricing.Ineos Automotive Asia Pacific head Justin Hocevar with the new Grenadier.The many new car companies that have sprung up in the West in the past few years – among them Rivian and Ineos – spent much of 2022 discovering that the car caper is a bit more difficult than they originally thought.
Let’s hope both these important Brits can bounce back, but it’s a tough time to do so, with Britain experiencing record power prices, inflation, staff shortages and supply issues. Two compatriot brands bought by the Germans, Bentley and Rolls-Royce, appear to be in much better health, with the latter preparing to put its first all-electric model, the Sceptre coupe, on sale in 2023.

That's an image of the International Terminal you're using in a story about domestic travel, btw.

Australians to welcome Djokovic back into Australia as a ‘champion’Institute of Public Affairs’ John Roskam says he thinks Australians will welcome tennis star Novak Djokovic back into the country as a “champion” who “spoke for people around the world”. Djokovic’s visa was cancelled 12 months ago following a legal battle over his vaccination status when he arrived in the country for the Australian Open. The former world number one has since touched down in Australia after being granted entry into the country for the 2023 tournament. Mr Roskam said there will likely be a “divided crowd” in Melbourne. “It was a time when there was no free debate, when there was no discussion,” he told Sky News host Rita Panahi. “It was a very difficult time for Australians and he was able to say something that many Australians didn’t feel they could talk about.” Legend who didn't buckle. Absolutely 👌 I think most will welcome him as a champion who thought only of himself.

Trade Minister Don Farrell hopeful talks with China will come early next yearTrade Minister Don Farrell has weighed in on the likelihood of trade barriers being reduced with China and is hoping to have a meeting with his Chinese counterpart early next year. No formal invitation has yet been sent out from the Chinese government. Good move the Americans will erect the trade barriers (for Australian trade with China) faster than any Australian government will ever have guts to remove Gunna trade plastic, mass produced shoes and microchips for our precious natural resources?
