Maybe US vehicles should be super cheap by having the US government pay for half the car. Oh wait, the sellers won't reduce the prices, they will just siphon that discount up to the vulture class investors. Because US companies are fucking shit and don't care about consumers.
That is why they lost. That is why everything in the US is going to shit, not just EVs. Because fucking everything is about MaXimUm pRoFitS for fucking useless "investors"
Then where are giant lots filled with millions of unsold vehicles like in China? They don't exist, because the government isn't guaranteeing the value of the cars mandating their production. Because they aren't doing the same thing.
I think you're bullshitting, Chinese evs are so cheap and plentiful because of hyper competition in their local market. They are cheap again because of extreme competition. China is better than the us at manufacturing and making things cheap, it's a fact.
