Mexico has entered the electric vehicle chat.
00:02
President Claudia Sheinbaum just announced that they're done importing electric cars from
00:06
China and India and now they're building their own.
00:10
Damn. OK. Then they're calling it Linia which means to
00:15
move in. Nah,
00:18
it's a small affordable EV and they want everything sourced from Mexico
00:21
We're talking young Mexican engineers,
00:24
Mexican materials. Mexican workers,
00:27
PCIO Mexicano, dude,
00:29
I love to see it and I love how the name is
00:32
in. Now. What?
00:33
Like it's sticking to the roots.
00:35
I love that. I love that.
00:37
I want it. I want it now.
00:39
They're very creative because yeah,
00:40
I was wondering about car names.
00:41
Where do they get them from?
00:42
But this is very like like very,
00:46
very on the nose with Mexico and get the best part.
00:51
They're $8000. What if you don't mind me asking how much
00:56
That's what I'm trying to get at the Tesla.
01:00
It was like over $50,000 and it's like,
01:05
dude, what the heck I'm going to freaking take that shit
01:08
back. And honestly,
01:11
I'd rather have like a Mexican,
01:13
a Mexican made electric car because you already know like Mexicans make
01:19
some good shit. They already have factories out there for,
01:22
I think one of my Hondas was made in Mexico.
01:24
The plant. Right.
01:26
I wonder if it will be up to code where people can
01:28
bring them, you know,
01:29
some cars like this only in Mexico.
01:31
That's true. What is it?
01:33
Maybe? No, I think for the US to get them
01:38
because they're so cheap.
01:39
You know what I mean?
01:40
So they're going to try to find like,
01:43
oh, this doesn't meet up to code.
01:44
Who knows? But the next one will probably make it up
01:46
to code. But you're saying,
01:47
you know what I mean?
01:51
But dude, I would love to get one that's dope for
01:56
$8000. Yeah. And you know,
01:59
Elon and Tesla are shaking.
02:01
I mean, you're saying you want to return it,
02:03
you know, I mean,
02:05
I love it. Don't get me wrong but this is dope
02:07
and then it's Mexican made the pride in me.
02:11
You know, I got a Mexican car like me be beep
02:15
Mexican. Oh,
02:16
it's instead of be beeps.
02:19
That's all you need.
02:20
So damn $8000. That's kind of cool.
02:29
We'll see, we'll see what happens.
02:30
But I can't wait to get my eyes on it.
