If these Chinese vehicles suck so much, why are US car companies so afraid of them?

[–] MadBigote@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Cuz China is well known for subsidizing production (well the US kinda does it too for some productos anyway). I personally wouldn't buy a Chinese vehicle out of security and quality concerns, regardless of it being Ev or not.

If the vehicles are so low quality and dangerous, then it wouldn't be the job of tariffs but of bans, since there are minimum safety standards that still apply.
