>> Despite the fact that the majority of these programmes are long-term, the expenditures are already paying off in the EV market. 6.75 million electric vehicles (EVs) were sold globally in 2021, accounting for 8.3% of all car sales and a 108% increase from the previous year.

>> Compared to the regular car industry, the EV sector has quite different levels of competition. More prominently featured are Chinese manufacturers, and the market leader, Tesla, is a start-up that has never sold an internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle since it was founded.

>> The majority of Asian businesses target the mass market by pricing their models competitively. While placing themselves between the mainstream and specialised sectors, historically high-end companies like Mercedes-Benz are charging more for quality and design. By taking advantage of loopholes, Lucid has established itself in the high-end niche market.
