The recent surge in fuel prices due to the war in Iran has spurred demand for electric vehicles around the world, and Chinese car makers are making the most of the opportunity.

Most Americans would not buy a Chinese car anyway.
I love that Americans pretend to be the most important and competitive market. The combined population of Europe is twice that of the US. South East Asia is 700 million. And the choices in EV’s is triple that off the US.
These are the markets Chinese manufacturers are after. These markets accept Chinese cars based on the price, quality and innovation.
They used to say that about Japanese cars in America too.
No one cares about population. It’s about gdp.
American media pretends. Americans are just stupid.
Id buy a Chinese car before an American one (as an American).
There are around 290m cars in the us for the 330m people
There are around 420m cars in Europe for the 730m people
So while the actual amount of cars in all of Europe is more than the US the percent car ownership in a single country is insane
Than why don’t they buy foreign EV’s? There were options but now both Hyundai and Kia have stopped selling EV models last year solely in the US. In my opinion that makes the choice for BYD logical as these US established brands can’t even sell their EV’s.
Most Americans would jump at the opportunity of the price is right. They might tell you to your face they won’t but they will.
Most of our bs is made in China anyway
