Not sure why you’re being downvoted. There are a LOT of Chinese EVs here. Volvo recently launched a new EV too that’s super popular.
There’s also Volkswagen and Polestar of course. That said you see a lot of BYD, MG, Lynk & Go here. I don’t keep track of all the brands, my roomie is more of a motor nerd, I’d ask him if he wasn’t sleeping.
In short though, the Chinese EVs tend to be really good deals.
You misunderstand their comment, they're saying to sell EVs to China.
Ah, you're absolutely right.
To be fair, I think it'll be kind of tough to get a foothold on the Chinese market for the same reason. There's a lot of really good Chinese EVs so why go with something from a foreign market when the local stuff will do just fine?
Aaaand that's why they're getting downvoted.
