- oblio 3y agoFairly sure those EV subsidies already do that and they're locked to US only.
- solardev 3y agoI'm afraid of them buying up US companies and workers, the way they've bought up much of Hollywood and gaming. Our system of capitalism means they get to use our own weapons against us.
- ChainOfFools 3y agoNAFTA was terminated by Trump, and then re-established and more or less the same form but with his own signature on it, as USMCA. You know, to put the US first. There is a joke that he originally demanded that the M (for Mexico) be put last, but that would have made the initialism a bit too on the nose.
- tibbydudeza 3y agoNot with pure chancers like Weltmeister- they make crappy cheap EV's. BYD/Geely/Haval do make an attempt at quality at least.
- bsder 3y agoBeen waiting for 20 years for China to stomp on the big auto manufacturers. Yet, Chinese people still want "US" cars. China should have been ahead of everybody on EVs. The fact that they are not speaks volumes. When there is an actual minimum level of guaranteed quality that must be met, Chinese manufacturing tends to fail hard.
- GOTO95 3y agoHere in Helsinki, Finland I see way more Chinese EVs than I see western EVs combined. Now if you ask a random Helsinkian (is that a word?) about this they'd say I was wrong, but what they don't realize is most of the public transportation here runs on Chinese EV busses. And you see way more of those local blue busses than you see other EVs.
