Would you want to drive in a $14k day from a safety/quality perspective? How many "corners cut" does that represent?
- yetanother-1 3y agoI will wait to see the ADAC crash test report. Once I can see it here, I will decide accordingly. https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrzeug/autokatalog/crashtest/ https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrzeug/autokatalog/crashtest/

- netsharc 3y agoCheap, unfair snark: if I wanted an unsafe, corners-cut EV, I'd get a Tesla! Edit; interestingly I've read enough reports of Tesla cutting corners, like unglued glass, broken suspension arms and support people gaslighting the buyers.. meanwhile this BYD suffers under a presumption of, but unproven unsafety (although as sibling commenter said, I'd wait for the ADAC report before considering it)
- jzebedee 3y agoI drive a recent model year Chevy Bolt where I paid a total price within that 14-20k range. I don't find myself worried about cut corners. The safety profile is fine. The quality is fine. It's an EV that does everything I want: reach a range large enough to make it usable beyond just a city car, be reasonably cheap, and have a serviceable lifespan beyond the gimmick period of a Tesla.
