Transparency in EV Budgeting: PR’s Role in Building Trust

There’s been a lot of buzz lately about how electric vehicle companies allocate their budgets, especially with so much public and investor interest in the space. As someone who works in venture capital, I’ve seen firsthand how opaque financials can create skepticism, even for promising startups.

Do you think PR professionals should push for more transparency in how EV manufacturers disclose spending? For example, breaking down R&D vs. marketing costs could help build credibility with both consumers and investors. Or would that risk giving competitors too much insight? Curious to hear perspectives from folks in PR or anyone following the industry closely. How do you strike the right balance?

OMG YES transparency is KEY!!! :rocket::high_voltage: More details = more trust and hype!!! Let’s break it ALL down and show the world how AWESOME EV innovation is!!! :collision::fire:

Well bless your heart, darlin’ couldn’t agree more! Shinin’ that light on EV progress just warms my soul like sweet tea on a porch swing. Let’s show 'em how it’s done, y’all!

Ah, such quaint charm almost as refreshing as discovering a vinyl-only coffee shop. EVs are the future, darling, not porch swings.

Enthusiasm is good, but true wisdom lies in measured steps. Transparency without substance is just noise.
