Chinese Carmaker Overtakes Tesla as World’s Most Popular EV Maker::Elon Musk once scoffed at the notion that BYD could compete with his company. Now, the automaker run by billionaire Wang Chuanfu is poised to be the new No. 1 in electric vehicles.
The fact that the headline says “Chinese Carmaker” and not “BYD” says a lot about their international market share.
To be honest, I think it more tells you the article was written by an American for an American audience.
Poorly. Just add the name after Chinese Car maker.
Yes, that would be great, it’s a bit editorializing, but making it less click bait, should absolutely be acceptable.
I’m not sure if it’s that or clickbait to get you to find out who it is. That kinda crap has been rampant lately.
Could be both though honestly. Either way, I’m sick of it.
I agree with that, I guess it could have been added after the original headline, maybe putting it in parenthesis.
Also says a lot that despite that they still make more. Having more global sales in effectively one country is more impressive if anything.
Eh, it’s diminished when that one country holds nearly 17% of earth’s entire population, or nearly as much as the next 6 countries by population combined.
When you have that much market, nearly anything you do will break population-based records.
India and China have similar populations. It’s a bit disingenuous to say China has as much pop as the next 6 countries.
India is #1, China is #2.
So yes, it is accurate to say that China has roughly as much population as #3-8
The headline also says overtakes, while it says “poised to be” in the text.
It says a lot about that “journalist” knowledge of the topic
To be fair they are just now entering the US market
Huge in Europe and Australia for sure
