I think the grand “no fail” plan is for US manufacturers and other legacy European and Japanese giants down the road to rely on US/EU and Japanese government subsidies and mandates to fund the hundreds of billions in new EV investments required in the next 10-20 years.
Germany won’t let Daimler, BMW and VW be left behind. The US won’t let GM and Ford fail to Chinese EV startups and Japan certainly won’t let Toyota, Honda and Nissan get left behind.

I’ve been quoted for 14% over MSRP. I can’t lough about it.
But you keep pointing to money printing as the culprit, but the vast majority of evidence points to supply chain issues. Supply chain issues would still be transitory compared to what we saw in the 70s. Maybe the supply chain caused inflation sparks a more entrenched version, but the story you are telling doesn’t match what’s happening currently.
