      What do you mean - they have video proof they built a truck. It didn’t move on its own power, but they built it.

    Isn’t this the company that got busted for having their demo video of the 18 wheeler going downhill by gravity… and they claimed the truck was on its own power.

      The first* truck to use 100% gravitational power which is a much cleaner power source than electricity or internal combustion.

      It is not unusual for early prototypes. However you don’t bring those to a demo like that. You build the prototype a couple months before the demo, then you spend a month testing everything you will demo, either fixing problems or putting them on a list of things to ensure the demo doesn’t get into. Cars are too complex to expect your early demos will work - you built those early demos early though to see what you forgot that isn’t obvious in CAD.

    I can’t believe they survived this long. Hard to really phrase it as “the latest EV company”, they’ve been flailing since they pushed an empty truck down a hill.

    I’m surprised they survived this long, being a crappy imitation brand that also committed fraud.

    This shitstain of a company has been around far too long.
