Consumers: [not buying those EVs]

Shares in Porsche dropped 6 per cent on Friday after the carmaker said its profit margins were expected to be between 10 per cent and 12 per cent this year, well below the group’s long-term target of 20 per cent. The move to expand its range of combustion engine vehicles and hybrids, which some consumers are now opting for over fully electric models, will add another €800mn in costs this year, Porsche said. In a further sign of the strains facing the group, Porsche SE, the Porsche-Piëch family’s holding company, said a previously announced writedown of its stake in Porsche would be between €2.5bn and €3.5bn, roughly double its prior estimate. Porsche’s deliveries last year dropped 3 per cent compared with 2023, with its push into the fast-growing market for electric vehicles in China misfiring. The group’s Chinese sales slumped 28 per cent last year, with consumers failing to embrace its electric Taycan sedan.

Votad si queréis apoyar la Prohibición de las prácticas de conversión LGTBQ+ en la Unión Europea.

España todavía no ha alcanzado el umbral mínimo de apoyos para que esto vaya adelante.

Promocionadlo a saco, porfa. :blobcatcheer:

From a soap opera to cyberattacks: The unexpected connection between North Macedonia and Venezuela
North Macedonia and Venezuela, two very distant countries, first met through a soap opera in the 1990s. In 2024, the name of one of them became a symbol of digital activism in the other.

I worked editing pharmaceutical texts, including drug instruction brochures, and I'm not surprised that the Substance is a clandestine operation, with how terribly underexplained its instructions are. How many of you assumed that after the 1st week the young body had to crawl back into the old body?
