I just came back from Thailand. I got a Grab and driver pulls up in a BYD. I have never been in one. It is a really nice car from what I can see. I asked dude how much the car was. He said it was under ฿1M Which is $30,000 US. I was shocked.
I saw hybrids and electric cars everywhere there.
Meanwhile, the US market keeps pumping out oversized, overpriced EVs all while the manufacturers complain about lukewarm consumer demand.
If they love Rand so much, let the market decide. Fucking cowards.
