Ferrari and BMW are rolling out new models featuring lightweight, cost-effective aluminium wiring, accelerating a shift away from copper, the dominant material in electric wiring since the invention of the electric battery two centuries ago.

Planned Obselecense, baby. More opportunities to sell replacement parts.
Nah, that’s gonna set the whole car on fire, and then it’s all over once the batteries catch.
Let me know when you start seeing Ferraris burst into flames. Because that’ll be an entertaining display.
The Teslas and Chinese cheapos are gonna be the first to go.

Wasn’t there just a big scandal at Ford over relying on AI to manufacture vehicles and ending up with a bunch of defects?

We already know that established American cars are crap, I didn’t think that needed to be said.
There was a period, in the 70s/80s, when they were absolute crap. And then Japan started building non-crap cars, so Americans actually had to compete. For a brief, beautiful decade in between '98 and '08, you could get a Ford Focus for under $20k and it would drive 150k miles doing 50+mpg and almost never break.
Then Toyota started cheaping out and Ford got extra slack, and it was a race to the bottom again.
