  1. seriously, after looking at the China offering, the European brands appears so dated and mundane.
    Almost like stepping into a used car lot.

  2. BYD and NIO have some amazing cars. I hope EU stops with this tariff BS so we can all get in good electric cars at affordable prices.

  3. It is clever and amusing for your title to refer to Trump's tariiffs as "speed bumps". That is what they are except for Americans for whom they are immense potholes.

  4. Intensive competition happens out of EU/USA markets, which US/Europe/Japan/Korea car companies are facing serious challenges from China car companies and losing market share day by day.

  5. You should ask the Ru-ZZ-ian taxi drivers about the quality longetivity as well as the after market support. Also, FORGET THE AIRBAGS!!! ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠

  6. Europe and USA are protecting their own car companies. It makes sense, however doesn't mean iys the right thing.
    Ultimately, competition betters and lowers the cost on any product for the customers.
    This is prime example that politicians are there to protect the big companies incomes and not the people who actually employ the politicians to better their lifestyle. Just a thought 😂

  7. France 24 is reporting something positive about China which is very rare but German state media DW news is still reporting about how China can collpase in a month after Trump's tariffs. Germany is a 3rd rate colony of US. Europeans need to be careful

  8. If they're subsidized, you subsidize yours. I dont get it. When the US and EU are winning, everything is fair game. When they're losing, it's non stop whining
