- flopsamjetsam 2y agoThere are a few Chinese EVs available widely in Australia (BYD, MG, and recently Zeekr) that all conform to Australian Design Rules (ADR), which have been "harmonised" with the European ones for a while. So, most likely this would get the vehicles pretty close to passing the US safety rules, though they'd still have to go through testing and certification.
- aurareturn 2y agoPretty sure EU safety standards are higher and many Chinese EVs meet those.
- ulfw 2y agoConsidering a Cyberbeast out of all vehicles meets "US safety standards", I have to admit I don't have a lot of faith in those. Btw it doesn't meet European Union standards and hence isn't sold there.
