Electric cars allow a very unique opportunity for automakers to completely reintroduce their old brands as something new. Which brands do you think will find the most success through electric cars?

Keep in mind that electric cars allow for blank slate designs, equalized performance, reliability, low maintenance and ownership costs, attract a very different type of buyer, and even encourage people to spend as much as possible because there is no compromise between performance and economy.

That’s a sharp looking car that I bet would look even better “production ready”. It’s like the designer was trying too hard, tone the design down a bit and I think it would look fantastic.

Pick any old European nameplate now currently owned by a Chinese conglomerate...it’ll be these brands that you’ll find spark up the most success.

This just makes me think that Tesla should’ve bought the rights to AMC then sold the Model 3 under that brand along with an future affordable cars.

Although I’m not the marketing guru you are senpai.
