Prospect of low-priced Chinese EVs reaching US from Mexico poses threat to automakers

Or , hear me out, what if US auto makers stop trying to force overpriced oversized trash on us? Maybe try to compete?

Yeah well, fuck the American auto industry for not joining the 21st century.

Sounds like US automaker higher prices are the actual threat.

Why is competition for US auto makers a bad thing ?

Yeah, automakers pose a threat to automakers!

I doubt I will ever buy from the Big 3 again. Bailout parasites. Tried of these piece of shit too big too fail corps pulling this crap.

My next car will be a Chinese EV, if I have to drive it over the Mexican border myself.

Promise?

China seems to be succeeding in EV vehicles, not just cars, airplanes too. I'm sorta pining for the days when we were talking about a North America Union. These days its all about protectionism and wars. :(

Have they tried being competitive?

Something somethi free market blah blah blah.

Death to capitalism

The Earth is 🔥burning🔥, by our own hands, and we'd still rather play team sports for greedy sociopaths than prioritize even doing it a little slower with cheap EVs.

The Earth will heal in a few million years once we've destroyed ourselves. ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

Sounds like some healthy competition the caps are always on about

I'm super conflicted about this. I want cheap EVs, but at the same time, China is intentionally dumping their prices to kill competition so they can later jack it up.

What? A full body crumple zone vehicle!? Where do I sign up!?

They should be very concerned. However they have the advantage of time, place, protectionism. They already have factories and employees. The technology is known. They’re admitting they are aware of the market. The only way they can lose is if they don’t even try ….

We’ve spent years saying how short sighted they are to not be able to look ahead of the immediate term, now they’re admitting they can’t even look ahead 2-3 years

Good, maybe GM will have the follow through to make an electric car successful now.

Oh no! Won't someone think of the poor automakers!

Good

I'm not pro US but I don't trust anything made in China.
