For instance take a look at Xiaomi phones. They are better in every aspect than any western phone you could find in the < 500$ price range.
Western cars are designed for regulations that don't exist in China, think of emission controls and safety. Local manufacturers don't bother with that. Expect any western car to be overpriced and inappropriate for the china market.
Truly luxury brands like Apple and Porsche makes it because of status.
- dis-sys 9y agonot sure whether Apple is a still a status thing, I mean just look at their completely failed launch of iPhone 8 and the huge discount you can get for that phone. it is more like a phone designed for old people.
