Literally in that article a man who has more stake in the game than you, Elon musk, says it’s an existential threat. This must mean Elon is completely delusional. There is no threat and no market for sub 10k cars because they’re too small for Americans.
Elon musk needs a reality check.
- belval 3y agoPretty sure if the article was titled "The $10k BYD Seagull EV is scaring Tesla" the person you are responding to wouldn't have commented, but the US auto industry is definitely not scared by small affordable cars seeing as that market is already dominated by South Korean and Japanese manufacturers in the US.
- DiggyJohnson 3y agoThe difference is obvious. Current small Japanese and Korean cars compete directly with small American vehicles. They compete in the same classes and - by in large - follow the same product trends. A $10k or even $15k automobile would be in a class of its own in the American market.
