As the dust settles into a new wave of continuous news, let’s take a look at some of the headlines for the existing week.
Vw’s half-decade debacle known as Dieselgate, in which the company committed widespread fraud about the rate of emissions produced through its diesel, even though it all comes to an end. The FTC released its “final report” on the issue, noting that 86% of American car buyers affected by the scandal chose to exchange their struggling cars for a monetary refund rather than renew them.
Trolls: World Tour is not the kind of movie you would expect to cause controversy, but at the beginning of the COVID pandemic, AMC and Universal engaged in fierce combat opposed to the family film circle, especially whether or not it can only be released on VOD before the end of their exclusive theatrical window. Fast forward until last week and the two corporations still settled their disputes. From now on, movies will only have to stay in theaters for 3 consecutive weekends (17 days) before being released on VOD, compared to the full 90 days required before the pandemic.
While the COVID-19 pandemic hit the global economy, it proved exceptionally lucrative for Amazon. Last week, e-commerce announced that it had doubled its quarterly earnings last year, from $2.6 billion in sales to $5.2 billion. Apple has done very well, too.
A total of EVgo chargers will arrive at a motor park near you in the next five years. The company announced this week that it is partnering with GM to triple the number of charging stations it offers, from just 800 locations to 3,500 locations through 2025.
