Remember November:

The Mexican Minister of Foreign Affairs, Marcelo Ebrard, announced that Mexico would start the production of lithium batteries in 4Q23, made possible by investment from the country's trade partners and Mexico's recently announced Sonora Plan.
During the IX Pacific Alliance Business Summit, Ebrard announced that Mexico is prepared to receive lithium-related investments. To date, the country has agreed on funding coming from South Korea, China and the US, the latter as part of an agreement to produce lithium batteries in Sonora.
Ebrard did not discuss the exact amount of the coming investments, arguing that this is confidential information from private companies. However, he elaborated that those investments will materialize between 3Q23 and 4Q23.

Mexican Foreign Affairs Secretary Marcelo Ebrard will resign his position next week to dedicate himself to seeking the nomination of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s party for next year’s presidential election:

By 2030, half of the vehicles will be electric in Nuevo León and in Mexico, as stated by the presidential candidate of Mexico for Morena, Marcelo Ebrard .
At the Mitsubishi Warehouse, inside the Fundidora Park, Ebrard met with young and adult businessmen from the State to discuss fundamental issues at present such as electromobility.
"We reached an agreement with the United States for the production of all vehicles in Mexico, starting in 2030, half will be electric," he said
I'd rather see Ebrard getting selected in September over Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum.
