I wonder what the Australian government’s excuse will be to make it impossible to import one of these like the rest of the affordable EVs you might actually want from China and elsewhere around Asia and Europe. Instead we get a few $40k MGs and Hyundais that would make you miserable then a $30,000 gap followed by Teslas and Polestars. We did get the BYD and I’ve driven one on a roadtrip from Sydney to far north Queensland and back and it was actually really good. Pity it ended up so expensive compared to competitive ICE cars. Hoping once the majority of China’s auto market swaps to electric of some sort we can start getting the cheap hatchback competition and hopefully some cheaper hot hatch style EVs to meet the lower end of the market at around this $30,000 price tag.
