Contrary to teslas that don't explode and don't rust. BYD is dominating with affordable EVs while other countries keep prices astronomically high.

The US doesn't control the supply chains. Biden subsidizes EVs as well. US labor is too expensive and the resale value of EVs are very poor. If there is a country that can make EVs cheap enough, it is China. The EU and US stand no chance. Even with safety standards and 27% tariffs, Chinese cars are still cheaper, and the quality is good. US currency is artificially too high. US traded in their manufacturing for financialization. This is a case where Joe Biden can't beat the global market, with the rest of the world buying China. American EVs are a flop.
