Tagesanzeiger Switzerland

In the online version of May 8th brings the ''Tagesanzeiger'' Switzerland an article about electric and Plug-in Hybriccars keeping more secret than writing.






  Prototypen Volt und Ampera


In this article are the prototypes, or maybe only mock ups, Chevrolet Volt and Opel Ampera emphasised. This cars should come on the market in 2 years, when GM and Opel do not went bancrupt.

  Serial vehcicle BYD F3DM


Withheld is on the other hand the fair sensation of the Geneva car saon 2008, the car factory where the richest man of the world Warren Buffett invested $232 millions just in a time with horror messages from the US car market. The first company worldwide producing plug-in hybrids in series.

They write, that Tesla sold in 12 month only barely 100 piece, but they withheld, that BYD sold in only 4 month about the same amount of cars.

  Comment had been censored


It's possbile to write comments to the "Tagesanzeiger". I wrote such a comment, to tell them that the BYD F3DM is missing. This was Saturday May 9th 9:15 am. Now its Sunday, 4 comments published, but nothing about the BYD F3DM.

  Tendentious media coverage


When they write only about prototypes of a car group surviving only by government credits, but withhelds the serial car of a successful ambitious new car, not by error, but complete aware, I have to call this tendentious media coverage .
