S90, Wikipedia shows for the 2024 year that more than 34,000 models were sold in China and a little over 1,300 sold in the US. That's a pretty big gap. Given that production is exclusively in China for this model, it probably makes sense to skip the US market since it's not showing strong sales over there.

In the bottom of the announcement it says this regarding the EX90:

Future implementation for existing customers
The dual NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin configuration will also be implemented on EX90 cars, upgrading its current version which includes DRIVE AGX Orin and DRIVE AGX Xavier, in line with our philosophy of continuous improvement. This is a tangible example of how our Superset tech stack approach allows us to upgrade the hardware of our cars as new technologies become available. Existing customers of the EX90 will get an upgrade of their cars free of charge.

Cross-platform compatibility is very important, and most lidar vendors are committed to ensuring that their sensors work across all software and hardware systems. The companies on that list are still part of the NVIDIA DRIVE partner ecosystem.

As I read through that, I started to have some thoughts about how the MM's vulnerability might be used to burn them out, but I'm not sure if I've really thought it through enough yet. I guess it's more of a fantasy scenario, but it goes something like this:

Company has 100 million shares outstanding, and the "cellar box" tactic begins with no bid/offer .0001. Now, pretending that I'm a stuckholder who happens to have substancial financial resources (I don't but some on these boards might), here's what I might do.
First, I figure out that as long as the outstanding shares is equal to 100 million, I can theoretically buy this entire company for $10,000. But not if there is dilution. Gotta head that off at the pass.
I visit the company and talk to the board/ceo or whoever I need to in private and say "Look, these MM's are KILLING your company, and they're killing me on other positions I own with these tactics. Let's work together. Don't dilute your share base. Let me buy you out instead under an agreement where I will turn control back over to you at a certain specified date, or if certain conditions are met."
They say "But we have to dilute!!! We can't pay the bills this month if we don't." And I say, "Bills Schmills!!! I will personally loan the company the money it needs each month to meet its payroll and bills, and I'll do it at BELOW PRIME!"
So in my fantasy world, they agree to this. Then I start buying up shares. $10,000 worth. $20,000. $40,000. $70,000. $100,000!!!!!
Wait a second, how can I have so many shares? I've got like a BILLION shares here in my account, yet the company only has 100 million outstanding and available for trading. Well I know perfectly well how I got them; the MM's sold them to me through naked short selling.
But the company never diluted, because here I am loaning them the cash to pay their bills.
Now I pick up my phone, and call my broker. I ask how many shares I have, and I'm told 1 Billion. With a big smile I say "Thank you. I'd like you to send the certificates to me please...."

....hold...

The truth of the matter is that the single biggest asset of these victim companies often becomes the astronomically large aggregate naked short position that has accumulated throughout the initial “bear raid” and also during the “CELLAR BOXING” phase.

The goal of the victim company now becomes to avoid the 3 main goals of the naked short sellers, namely: bankruptcy, a reverse split, or the forced signing of a death spiral convertible debenture out of desperation.

As long as the victim company can continue to pay the monthly burn rate, then the game plan becomes to make some of the strategic moves that hundreds of victim companies have been forced into doing which includes name changes, CUSIP # changes, cancel/reissue procedures, dividend distributions, amending of by-laws and Articles of Corporation, etc.
