    TEI also supplied the castings for the Cadillac Celestiq.

    GM seems to be setting the ground work for their future EVs and other products.

    This acquisition also deprives Tesla of a local sandcasting/gigacasting partner and must now work with its 3 overseas gigcasting suppliers.

    Will insurance companies will be more likely to write off gigacasted cars as totaled after what used to be minor accidents?

    No they will just cite their gigaforce majeure clause and the owners will be SOL or merde majeure.
