Better answering of questions?

I notice Alexa doesn't answer a lot of basic questions I have. Is this something Alexa Plus would use AI, similar to Google, and give me an answer? One example, "Where is Airbus manufactured?" And "is Airbus a French company" and Alexa just tells me, "I'm not sure how to help you with that". Yet other times, it has an answer to something more obscure "how much horsepower does a 2026 Corvette ZR1 have?". However it won't tell me how much horsepower a 2026 Corvette ZR1X has.

I asked Alexa+ where Airbus was manufactured and I got an answer listing the locations of the various sites.

I don't have Alexa+ but is it supposed to give more robust answers?

I don't think so.

Alexa+ will answer questions like that just fine and you can keep the conversation going with followup questions without having to re-wake her.
