    No shit. They’re getting huge governmental help, openly steal from non-chinese companies, global trade is already structured around them, and they can utilise literal slave labour.

    The risk is that he would actually have to compete instead of resting on the beach. It’s good that these people are sweating when some fire is placed under their butts in the form of competition.

    My next car will be electric, I have over 250k on my ice car and it’s only now just starting to show wear.

    I haven’t purchased an electric because of the price, but I’ll definitely buy a $22k Chinese should they arrive on these shores.

    Last time I checked BYD prices, they were not cheaper than other EVs.

    What am I missing?

    Your own inept management in the face of obvious consumer demand for a cheap, basic EV for all is the biggest risk. Fucking out of touch idiots.
