Well, the trade war is also a factor, but what I’m saying is that Chinese government policy is what’s keeping EV manufacturers from selling abroad. The EV supply chain has gotten so robust and cost-efficient in China that the government has to bribe manufacturers to focus their efforts on the domestic market instead of just eating the cake of everyone else.
Those cost efficiencies are also at the expense of the Chinese government. The massive investment is all part of their green revolution policy package.
It’s why Solar cells are also incredibly cheap to produce in China, and why they’re also mostly sold in China.
my car is 16 years old and it’s american made so i’m certain that’s it’s going to fail catastrophically very soon, so i need a new car and i want one of these; but i’ll have to wait atleast another 5 years for the 100% tariffs to abate. even then, there’s a good chance that there’ll be new tariffs.
i’ve already canceled this summer road trip because of the precariousness of my car’s functioning and i’ll have the cancel the rest from now on and it’s maddening considering how much money people can throw away on car trip helping turn this turd of an economy around; but we won’t do it simply because someone other than the united states or its puppets are profiting from it.
It’s so fucked dude. This trade war bullshit is keeping me from having an affordable eco friendly whip.
Let. China. Grow.
