    The moment the Chinese EV plants open in Mexico, it will be game over for USA automakers

      The government will pull out every stop to keep the big three afloat. It was tariffs now, but seriously expect them to pull the “national security” card on the telematics system because “it sends data back to China” and they’ll block them as long as they can.

      Edit: Called it Story literally came out the next day.

        I wouldn’t mind an EV without screens and such if Chinese automakers do a malicious compliance car.

      As long as the CCP rules China I will never buy a Chinese EV. Or computer. Or phone.

        Are there any companies other than Apple that make PCs or smartphones that do not include Chinese components?

          I don’t think there’s anything you can really do to avoid electronics that contain Chinese components. As long as it’s designed outside of China I feel moderately safe about that.
