No car company is making more headlines right now than Tesla. Can the electric vehicle company stay ahead in the battle for electric car dominance?
Mark Rechtin, Executive Editor at Motor Trend, says Tesla's competitors are quickly gaining ground. Motor Trend tested out the Tesla Model 3, Nissan Leaf, and Chevrolet Bolt. Rechtin says that the Leaf and Bolt offer the best options, especially if you don't have $60,000 to spend on a Tesla.
Rechtin also discusses the ongoing problems Tesla is having with its Model 3 production. The company continues to fall behind its original target numbers, while its CEO Elon Musk is tweeting about a possible Tesla pickup truck. Rechtin says Musk should focus more on the Model 3 and less on his dream projects.
Fintech company CurrencyWorks partnered with Enderby Entertainment on a new platform called Vuele featuring the actor Anthony Hopkins in a film called “Zero Contact.” But it won't be coming to theaters or streaming — it's an NFT. Cameron Chell, founder and chairman of CurrencyWorks and co-head of Vuele, joined Cheddar’s Closing Bell to provide some insight into how it all works. Chell described Vuele as the first-ever direct-to-consumer film viewing platform that incorporates NFT tech making the movie a digital collectible, not for mass-market viewing.
