NVIDIA’s Thor Autonomy Chip — Could It Be Loki In Disguise?

Credit to Author: Chanan Bos| Date: Thu, 22 Sep 2022 04:30:31 +0000

The engineers over at NVIDIA claim to have harnessed the power of Thor. Actually, that I made up. Though, a large chunk of NVIDIA’s press release about its new autonomy chip codenamed Thor is just as arbitrary (or it was just written by a mischievous Loki to confuse us all).

XPeng’s New G9 Electric SUV Could Make A Big Splash, Is Ridiculous For The Price

I recently wrote about all of the fantabulous features of the new XPeng G9, but that was before it was fully launched. It was just launched in full today, and one of the biggest surprises for me is its low price. I expected it to cost at $20,000+ more! The starting price is from 309,900 […]

I recently went on an exclusive test drive of XPeng’s “City Navigation Guided Pilot” (CNGP) in the city of Guangzhou, China — virtually. I rode in the car via what was basically a Zoom call (Chinese version of Zoom) alongside an XPeng engineer, PR people, and a “driver.” They had 4 cameras set up to […]

XPeng Sales Up 96% & NIO Sales Up 28% … Or You Could Say 33% & 82%

Credit to Author: Zachary Shahan| Date: Fri, 02 Sep 2022 14:30:29 +0000

Chinese “smart electric vehicle” startups XPeng and NIO apparently took some big stock price hits this week due to lower than expected result in August and guidance going forward. I own shares of both, but I don’t really sweat such weeks. (Note: this is not stock advice and I offer no stock advice whatsoever.) From […]
