I visited China recently for 3 weeks. They have really nice EVs, got to ride on a bunch of different brands/models just by using DiDi (equivalent to Uber there).
They also have them on display on shopping malls, for example on Huawei and Xiaomi stores.
- adrr 10mo agoWhy could Chinese consumer electronics companies successfully launch cars and Apple which spent billions on R&D on a car couldn’t?
- seanmcdirmid 10mo agoXiaomi makes HVACs and washing machines as well, so we aren't really comparing apples to apples here. I think chinese companies trend toward the conglomerate model of South Korea and Japan (e.g. Samsung used to make cars), which isn't really a thing in the US.
- ErneX 10mo agoHonestly no idea but it’s impressive.
