Been waiting for 20 years for China to stomp on the big auto manufacturers. Yet, Chinese people still want "US" cars.

China should have been ahead of everybody on EVs. The fact that they are not speaks volumes.

When there is an actual minimum level of guaranteed quality that must be met, Chinese manufacturing tends to fail hard.

Here in Helsinki, Finland I see way more Chinese EVs than I see western EVs combined. Now if you ask a random Helsinkian (is that a word?) about this they'd say I was wrong, but what they don't realize is most of the public transportation here runs on Chinese EV busses. And you see way more of those local blue busses than you see other EVs.
