On October 22   Tesla  announced a landmark agreement to manufacture cars in China  building capacity to produce locally and boost sales in the worldâs largest market for electric vehicles.
The agreement is a landmark deal in several respects. China has granted  Tesla  more autonomy than other foreign producers.  Tesla  is the first major foreign automaker to establish local operations without a 50:50 local joint venture partner. This is a key concession as  it  allows  Tesla  tighter control over both  its  intellectual property and vertically-integrated production process.  Tesla  will also benefit by reducing production costs for cars sold in China and  though details were not disclosed  may also receive tax breaks and subsidies akin to those enjoyed by Chinese producers.
 Attracting Tesla  is a symbolic win for China. China has clear ambitions to lead the world in electric vehicles in a broader effort to build a cleaner  environmentally-conscious society. The timing of this announcement during Chinaâs critical 19th Congress reinforces the governmentâs broader objectives.
Yet  a closer look suggests that  Tesla  needs China more than China needs  Tesla . As the chart from IHS Markit: Light Vehicle Forecast below shows  China is an essential market for leading global automakers. China surpassed the United States in 2009 as the largest car market  and car sales in Western markets are forecast to decline  while emerging markets will drive global growth.
With its recent shift in environmental priorities  China is also becoming a major player in electric vehicles. In 2016  China accounted for 45% of all the newly registered electric vehicles worldwide with 336 000 in China vs. 160 000 in the United States. China is also building an EV charging infrastructure that primes the market for a high-end producer such as  Tesla . In 2016  China had a 44% global share of publicly available EV charging outlets  including 82% of fast-charging outlets. Demand for electric vehicles has grown faster in China than in any other global market with the share of EV purchases increasing 3.6x from 2014 to 2016. With EV purchases accounting for just 1.37% of the total car market  the Chinese EV market seems poised for further growth.
Low end EV's dominate Tesla
Despite seemingly favorable market conditions   Tesla  has had little success in China to date. Subsidies have driven electric vehicle demand  with the Chinese government paying up to 50% of the purchase price of domestically-produced EV cars. Lower-end electric vehicles have dominated  and  Tesla   which is subject to 25% import taxes  has largely been priced out of the market. In 2016   Tesla  had just a 3% share of the electric vehicle market in China.
 Tesla âs lackluster performance in China is a striking contrast to other global automakers. As in the West  cars are a status symbol in China  and consumers prefer prestigious global brands. Foreign cars claim a 60% market share in China  with foreign brands claiming seven of the top eight spots for cars sold in 2016. Premium brands have done particularly well in China.
Audi  BMW  Mercedes and Porsche all sell between a quarter to a third of their total global sales in China -- a 10% increase on average in just the past five years. In addition  Volkswagen now sells half of its global volume in China. The experiences of other foreign car brands suggest that  Tesla  should fare well in China if  it  can reduce production costs and vehicle pricing in line with the local market.
It is within this context that  Tesla  needs China more than China needs  Tesla . Chinaâs electric vehicle market will grow with or without  Tesla . But Teslaâs deal with the Shanghai government is both timely and essential. As the electric vehicle market takes off in China   Tesla  must do well in this vital market to maintain global leadership. Building volume in China is required to reduce production costs and pricing in the global as well as local market. Ultimately  as we are seeing in other industries   Tesla  may find that technology talent in China will also prove vital to maintain  its  position as a leading innovator globally.
Why Tesla Needs China More Than China Needs Tesla

Green Day is teaming up with  Miranda Lambert  for a revised version of "Ordinary World " a song originally released on the band's 2016 album  Revolution Radio. The re-recorded track will appear on next month's Greatest Hits: God's Favorite Band as a duet  with  Lambert  and Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong sharing lead vocals.

The pairing of a punk-pop band with a mainstream country headliner isn't as incongruous as it might look.  Lambert  and Armstrong previously swapped harmonies at the 2014 Grammy Awards  where the two singers paid tribute to the late Phil Everly with an acoustic performance of the Everly Brothers' 1960 hit "When Will I Be Loved." One year earlier  Armstrong performed a similar mix of mid-century country music and harmony-heavy folk on Foreverly  his duets album with Norah Jones.

The company denies it did anything wrong  insisting it was acting legally at the time. The settlement did not require an admission of liability   Attorney General Lori Swanson  said.
"We're pleased with the settlement. We think the settlement will help solve a problem in Minnesota. It's been a problem that has been a long time in the making for many decades "  Swanson  said. "These chemicals  as I mentioned  were put into the ground. And we are very hopeful the settlement can help fix that."
The settlement was announced Tuesday after jury selection was halted as the trial was set to begin.  Swanson  said  she  believes it is the largest environmental case in state history.
 Swanson  said 3M will pay the state in one lump sum within the next 15 days. It will go into a fund dedicated to projects that will clean up and safeguard drinking water in the eastern suburbs of St. Paul. Details on how the money will be used are still being worked out  but it could go to help homeowners with contaminated wells  or help municipalities with sustainable drinking water and treatment plans.
