The title says "China" but then the article is actually about "Chinese brands". Some EVs from Western brands like Tesla, BMW, Mini, etc are also made in China so the terms are not equivalent.
In Europe, it can be unclear what is a domestic brand, too. In the UK for instance, most Minis are made locally (though owned by BMW) and Nissan has a large plant. On the other hand, in France Peugeot and Citroën are now part of Stellantis, which also owns Fiat, Chrysler, etc is HQ'd in the Netherlands... what's the difference at this point? "Domestic brand" is becoming a historical artifact but hollow in practice.
