The GWM Ora electric hatch, sold in Australia in its current form since 2023, is expected to become the first vehicle from a Chinese brand not to be built in its home market for Australia.

GWM currently exports most of the models it builds in Thailand to other South-East Asian countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia.

The main motorist interest group in Denmark strongly suggest people who own a Tesla model 3 or model Y have their cars safety checked before warranty expires.

Loosely translated:
Among the problems are play in the steering wheel, and bad suspension.

These problems are normally only seen on way older cars with heavy mileage. These problems are worrying because these parts impact the safety of the car.

Tesla however is claiming if the play is within the limits of the service manual, they will not have an impact on safety. "We design our vehicles so they exceed safety regulations." literal translation!
/translation summary

Lately newer cars from Tesla have failed 25-30% legally mandatory inspections, and Tesla is spewing bullshit about it!
It's not up to Tesla to decide safety standards. and failing to such high degrees right after warranty, is definitely not exceeding safety standards!

If Tesla are finally bringing this thing out and are focusing on business to business sales, then it looks like things are pretty dire. If this was released on time, they'd have never needed to worry about anything Musk said in his private time as they would've been clear of all competition.
