Numbers Don't Lie: China's EV Market is On Fire

Alright people let's talk about real money and the future – electric vehicles in China. Xpeng delivering over 35,000 units in April alone and sustaining over 30,000 for six straight months? That's not just impressive; that's a goddamn statement. 273% year on year increase? Numbers like that get my blood pumping! These guys aren't just playing the game; they're changing the rules. It's like Axe Capital in the automotive world – always pushing always hungry. The new X9 is priced at $49,482. Chump change when you are planning to take over the world! I bet those billionaires buying the X9 are like me when they are trying to win a game of poker you gotta risk big to win big!

Competition is a Bloodsport: Leapmotor vs. The World

And don't even get me started on Leapmotor. Surpassing 40,000 deliveries in April? These guys are nipping at the heels of the big boys. You think I got to where I am by playing nice? Nah. It's a goddamn bloodsport out there and these companies are proving they're willing to get their hands dirty. Remember loyalty is a one way street. The only way to win is to make sure everyone else loses.

Nio's Two Pronged Attack: Diversify or Die

Nio delivering 19,269 vehicles plus their sub brands Onvo and Firefly? Smart move diversifying. You can't put all your eggs in one basket. It's like having multiple positions in the market – hedge your bets and you always come out on top. Firefly launching a compact EV at 119,800 yuan? Someone's playing the volume game and they're playing it well.

BYD: The Juggernaut That Can't Be Stopped

BYD selling 372,615 passenger vehicles in April including over 79,000 overseas? That's not just a company; that's a goddamn force of nature. A 45.09% year on year increase? These guys are eating the competition for breakfast. Five new car models at the Shanghai Auto Show? These guys are playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers! They are on a roll and they are not stopping. The same way that Axe Capital rolls!

The Weak Get Eaten: When Deliveries Dip

But here's the thing: not everyone's winning. Zeekr's deliveries down? Li Auto and Xiaomi slipping from their previous highs? That's the market baby. It's brutal unforgiving. You either adapt and conquer or you get left in the dust. There are no participation trophies in this game and you better believe I'm not handing out any sympathy. It is like when I am against Prince in the markets you either win or you lose.

Safety First: The Price of Innovation

Now let's talk about the elephant in the room: the Xiaomi SU7 crash. Three lives lost? That's a tragedy plain and simple. And it brings safety into the spotlight. Companies are embracing more Lidars? Good. You can't cut corners when it comes to people's lives. Safety first. But make no mistake innovation always comes at a price. The key is to learn from your mistakes and keep pushing forward. I have had some hiccups in my life but I always get back up. Like what Sun Tzu said you have to know your enemy.
