Recently, Tesla CEO Elon Musk Tweeted about a USA Today report covering a $1 billion investment by Daimler/Mercedes-Benz in electric vehicles. Musk lamented that the car company only set aside that much for the development of EV technology and wished that it was $10 billion instead. In response, Daimler sent out its own Tweet, pointing out that it was indeed investing that much in EV technology.

That's not a lot of money for a giant like Daimler/Mercedes. Wish they'd do more. Off by a zero.

You're absolutely right @elonmusk. Here the missing zero: Investing >$10bn in nxt gen EVs & >$1bn in battery prod.
