BYD has reported a 19% fall in annual profit, its first decline in four years, despite rising sales as price pressure in China weighs on margins. We look at what is driving the slowdow, and what it means for the wider electric vehicle industry. We also examine the increasingly competitive market for electric cars, set against a backdrop of rising global oil prices.
While oil prices continue to rise, the cost of weight loss drugs could be heading in the opposite direction. And we look at how a small, family-run business in Slovenia has become a major force in skiing.
