• Have Chinese brands reversed the tables and gained a sustainable advantage over foreign brands in the EV race? Can global OEMs catch up?
• Can Chinese brands hold their gains as multi-national carmakers enter the EV game in China?
• Should multi-nationals restructure their businesses in China in the EV era, now that they can own more shares?  Does this even make sense as the market preference shifts to digital and user-centric services?
• Can Chinese carmakers translate their EV relevance and value propositions to become globally successful brands in other markets, especially in Europe and the US?
