Another day, another CCP shill post. Tomorrow you’ll tell us about their beautiful human rights handling I hope.
This just isn’t a CCP shill post. Western and Korean companies simply refuse to sell an EV that isn’t a luxury car, and Japanese companies seem to be trying to get out of making EVs period. The only one I could name, Chevy Bolt, got the axe last year.
Like, I look like an American Nationalist next to most Lemmy users (you could say I am in a way, but not in the conventional right-wing flag waver way.) But BYD coming to America would fill a need, even if the cars actually suck. Teslas suck, but they still sell, and there are alternatives to Tesla.
Eh, it’s more the dumbing-down of America starting to take effect.
It’s always funny seeing you people comment almost instinctively on anything that’s positive about china.
I’m French, try again
Umm… your nationality has nothing to do with it.
You should pay more attention in English class.
wow, you sure are a nice Person.
- yes it does. The Dumbing-Down of America has no Effect on a Frenchie.
- I wanna know how many Languages you speak, because it’s very well possible he speaks 3 completely different Languages (French, German, English). So how about you get your Attitude checked and stop being an Arrogant A**hat
Everything fine at home? Do you really believe the west it’s far better at human rights? Really?
Yes. Say something that Xi doesnt like ? Staright to jail/brainwash camp. Say something about Biden being senile ? Laughs on Twitter. Tell me which is worse.
Or maybe the West is just not the be all end all in all aspects of society?

He doesn’t understand the words he’s using or other people’s arguments.
Apparently he’s French and didn’t pay attention in English class.
At least he isn’t as arrogant as you are
I’ve recently driven a brand new 2023/2024 Maxus T90EV. It had 15 miles on the clock when I drove it. These are the problems I experienced with it and these aren’t even touching on my preferences like I thought the seats were uncomfortable, or that regenerative braking is quite aggressive and can’t be changed. So I doubt China EVs are going to take over, not in 2024 at least.
- Auto lights didn’t work
- Auto wipers didn’t work
- Intermittent wipers didn’t work
- Rear view camera was really poor quality
- Infotainment system crashed, where I had to walk away from the vehicle with it still in its crashed state. At some point it finally turned off and worked again on the next drive
- Bluetooth audio kept crashing
- Infotainment system is really basic
- Shudders when driving on the factory set speed limiter
- No driving aids like cruise control or driver defined speed limiter
I feel bad for everyone who takes your word at face value.
Anyone can type anything on the internet. Just keep that in mind, folks.
It’s my honest review. Why do you speak negatively towards me?

Yikes
Kind of a dumbass comment there my guy
Lol, found the guy who believes everything he reads on the internet.
You’re clearly being a troll.
Uhh, no.
I want the kind of EV that’s made in Japan.
You’ll be waiting a while. They’re still trying to figure out how to replace fax machines.
So is the rest of the world.
Cut them som slack they just recently made progress in removing the floppy as an essential peice of technology for their citizens
Mmm… mag lev…
A Gundam then. That will be $725M for the base model without Beam Saber and shield. Would you like to pay in cash or card?
What if I steal Fort Knox on my test drive? Will that work?
I’m sorry citizen but the Earth Federation currently does not accept stolen reserves for test drive bonds. You may wish to contact the Principality of Zeon who may be amenable to your mode of payment. Thank you and have a nice day!
Probably not a well received opinion but the amount of China promoting drivel that goes on here in lemmy is astounding.
Eh, I’ve seen all these same headlines on Hacker News. China is a rapidly developing country with a lot more people, manufacturing, advancements, and news than many other countries so it makes sense that there would be a lot of news coming out of it.
I just visited China for the first time during a business trip a few weeks ago and as an American I was impressed. The US media tries so hard to present only the negative that a lot of Americans aren’t even aware of all the achievements they’ve accomplished.
Agree. Tankies are on the loose, and not just on their own servers
Which is the propaganda? The posts touting Chinese achievements in tech, or the posts saying to beware of the Chinese milestones?
Both.
I mostly agree with your statement and we should be aware of both.
I want a free one that prints money.
Considering the subsidies from the cpc, they all kinda do lol
It’s the result of massive subsidies. When they stop, this market will crash like a house of cards.
Those bastards, subsidizing emissions reducing technologies.
Not really. It’s mainly about gaining market dominance on a technology they think is the future. They’ll build them right next to the massive coal plant alongside a million other things they’re subsidizing.
Even if its not some altruistic reasons, they still are literally subsidizing this emissions reducing technology.
Tho they are also going pretty ham on subsidizing renewable energy too.
And we could be doing the same if we ditch big oil subsidies.
You won’t be saying that once the market crashes. You’ll realize that there are much better ways of spending that money. Like far more practical emissions reducing solutions.
How do subsidies=crash, and what are more effective emissions reductions solutions than renewable energy and electrifying transit?
You’re better off spending it on stuff like mass transit and the like. It won’t just all disappear at some point in the future.
You could say the same thing about fossil fuels in the USA…
Or all of the food in the USA. Imagine all agra subsidies stopped. Probably a bigger deal than a EV market disruption.
Well honestly we need to stop with corn subsidies. It is used far too much in our food system. Corn sugar just needs to stop.
Like their housing market right now.
BYD would eat the market alive if they sold their EVs here solely on price.
I want a car without spyware.
Even American cats have spyware. Not sure what your choice is there. At this point, I’ll settle for cars with physical buttons for climate and other commonly used controls.
Even American cats have spyware.
And they have since the 1960’s: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_Kitty
That typo was totally worth learning about this
I‘m just waiting on the release of the german X-Bus. A modular 600kg vehicle that counts as a quad and can be used as a bus/transporter/pickup/camper and recharges 30-50km of range a day through solar energy on the roof for under 20k€ is exactly what I want from an EV. I don’t need a 50k price tag with shiny smart features.
I would prefer better crashworthiness though
I’ve just been looking at those. I can’t help but think of the old adage, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is
it basically falls under the vehicle classification of tricycles and golf carts, so the safety standards are, shall we say, more lenient
I want a top speed of 50, 100 mile range, single seater, and a price tag to match
An ebike can do all that.
Lmao.
I went to one of the links and some of their cars had a 404 error, so I’m guessing that’s what their repairability and warranty would be like in the states.
“Whatever kind of EV you might want, chances are China has it.”
proceeds to describe a car that’s slower and has less range than my e-bike
Kinda curious what the other options are, I got hit with a paywall.
I want an Aptera. Any solar cars available in China? A Telo would be sweet but they’re super early on.
I don’t want any EV
They also have fields of decaying vehicles that were built solely to take advantage of the subsidies
idk why you’re being downvoted, you’re absolutely right lol
Chinas EVs are not built to standard and are used in majority to grab cheat the Central Government for subsidies
