    BYD is selling where I live now in Southeast Asia. And I’ve also been to China many times and been inside BYD vehicles.

    While they are economically built, the quality seems pretty good considering the price point. They’re being used as taxis all over Shenzhen and many other cities where I’m sure they’re racking up hundreds of millions of kilometers of fleet mileage, potentially giving them a lot of data to work with.

    Honestly I think the Chinese are going to be very strong contenders against American built electric vehicles, which is going to ruffle a lot of feathers.
