Ideally to drive the price of competing cars down or at the very least make the current models more feature rich/compelling than their cheaper Chinese counterparts to justify the price gap.
As it stands, Chinese built EV’s have feature parity for the most part with locally built or otherwise imported EV’s. All at a relatively great price for the product.
There’s still a few years to see how they fare in other countries before possibly arriving in North America if that’s where you reside. Lots of time to deliberate!
But they are not held to the same labor standards, environmental standards, intellectual property laws, or fair financial support.
So of course they’re cheaper and of course they have parody because they’re using forced labor stolen intellectual property and being funded by an authoritarian regime.
If China’s willing to play on the big stage and a somewhat fair way then maybe I would consider buying a vehicle from them.
Why when I can buy reliable and well-made cars from the North America and Japan?

So what if it was a Chinese car that was imported through Chevrolet and Ford and assembled in America using 100% made Chinese parts?
There are similar occurrences in the past with ice vehicles.
