I notice Israel imports a lot of CARS.
Notice the statement below regarding electric cars
October 9, 2018

Israelis will no longer be able to buy new gasoline or diesel-powered vehicles after 2030, the Energy Ministry said on Tuesday, unveiling a plan to replace them with electric cars and trucks that run on natural gas.

So what's going on with the GM plant? will they make electric cars? will Tesla move in?
December 2018

Could they soon be making Teslas in Oshawa?
In an interview on 60 Minutes, the electric car company’s CEO said he’s not ruling it out.
“It’s possible that we would be interested,” Elon Musk said.
“If they were going to sell a plant or not use it that we would take it over.”
The plan would be to start assembling Tesla vehicles at these facilities
==============================================
But then....I also noted this from 2017..

The visit focused on GM's center in Herzliya for the development of advanced technologies. The visit follows General Motors' accelerated activity in automous and electric cars, a large proportion of which is taking place in Israel.

Why wouldn't Israel buy from us?
