For decades, Mexico has been one of the world’s largest automotive manufacturing hubs.

But there was always one major limitation: Mexico assembled vehicles designed somewhere else.

Now, that is changing.

In 2025, Mexico announced Olinia — the country’s first domestic electric vehicle initiative. While many dismissed it as symbolic, the reality could be much larger.

Because this is not only about cars.

It’s about:

  • industrial power
  • supply chains
  • batteries
  • energy infrastructure
  • advanced manufacturing
  • North American economic integration
  • and Mexico’s long-term position in the global economy

As the global EV race accelerates and supply chains continue shifting away from long-distance manufacturing, Mexico may be entering the most important economic transition in its modern history.

Could Mexico become a major EV power in the coming decades?

If somebody on the "socialish"/progressive/socdem side of things has nice things to say about Mamdani (or Katie Wilson, in my case, or even Bernie) it's a good opportunity to talk about the left-wing leadership we see demonstrated by my president Claudia Sheinbaum (yep, that's right, I'm.with her)

  • nationalizing industry
  • universal healthcare
  • coordination of supply chains
  • trains

To highlight a few policies

There's no true left in the US, Sheinbaum is the bare minimum of left policies

Sure, and it's our responsibility and duty to educate people around us about that fact
