      The topic that is never addressed about Chinese EVs is their RELIABILITY and SAFETY. No data is ever given (even available). No question Chinese have us beat on price and some design features. However, most YT channels are silent on their mechanical/electrical reliability. There is no mention of self-driving features either. There's more to consider than just price.

    The Kia EV5 is cheaper than other Kia/Hyundai offerings because it's made in China and is a Kia body dropped on a BYD skateboard. You won't see that one in the USA.

    If Chinese EVs were available in the U.S. they would have to be significantly less than the Tesla equivalent for me to buy. Tesla will sell at a premium because it's made in the USA, charging network, repairability, and tech/ai. Tesla's made in Shanghai should remain competitive because they are cheaper to manufacture. Basically, all legacy autos are screwed if the Chinese EVs aren't hit with high import tariffs.

      ​@WarrenRedlich in what way Tesla is better? You always compare to Tesla long range. Tesla standard range mileage is not long too. In Singapore, the M3sr was just over 300km in total. So if you compared to chinese EVs with over 400km or 500km, it is still better than m3sr but at lower price. Why didn't you take Tesla standard range model as benchmark and its pricing compared to those Chinese EVs. Talking about reliability, BYD has been in Singapore for more than 5 years now without major issues. You just biased against chinese EVs on quality and reliability without concrete proofs. The only Tesla that stands up is their software. Otherwise, many Chinese EVs have better features and lower pricing (or have better comfort than Tesla)... lol.

    And why say the best Chinese EV;s are inferior to a Tesla with less range and slower charging capacity when the Chinese cars use batteries made by companies like BYD are better than those used by Tesla.

Other than BYD, Geely, Tesla and Li Auto all the rest are still unprofitable which is why they are trying to expand to other markets.

      50,000 miles is still within the warranty. Your prediction will make them go bankrupt. The real reason why they are so cheap is mainly because they controlled the battery from the technology to the key minerals so that they can make massive production in very competitive price. They have the largest market, and their government is very supportive on EV adoption. The competition is severe there. Those who survived have to be good enough, therefore gain advantage in international competition. Open your eyes and change your mindset. Don't be so stereotype on China. They are different now.

      They very easily could. Take the m3 chassis, shrink it down some, use the much cheaper induction motor with no rare earths we already know they had planned to use in the unboxed vehicle's. With 50-55kwh catl or byd structural lfp packs=230-260 miles of epa range.
      Then strip out features just like the new 4k cheaper cloth seats m3 for the mx market. Cheaper 17" much lighter wheels with even thinner 205-215-65/17 ev tires to gain somemore range. Cut 350-500# out of the current m3 or model Y. And allow for a 4-7k price reduction.
      Might not have a glass roof anymore or as many power options. Still with an overall superior product vs the cheap Chinese evs.
      But I don't think elon will do this to the TESLA brand. Another more motivated CEO would imo who had lots of experience running a mass market vehicle maker. Even job's once said if you aren't willing to cannibalize yourself? Someone else surely is! 👍🏻🤔

We’ve already seen the low trim model 3 in Mexico. The “unboxed” model is the robotaxi. Tesla and Elon have never said anything about a new cheaper consumer car. I believe in Tesla!

Elon is a disrupter, and I’m not sure he could really disrupt the market for these cheaper cars globally. People like bigger cars in USA. I think they will release a van, robotaxi, roadster, (and cheaper trims of 3+Y). This is also consistent with the picture of all their cars with three covered up. I think Warren agrees with me?

There may be few Chinese manufacturers better than Tesla, but most are going to cut corners somewhere.I may be wrong🤞,but would err on the safer side though.
      There is no safety mechanism in a BEV(yet🤞), that could prevent a thermal runaway due to an external event, such as elevated temperatures nearby, or a battery cell rupture due to road debris, a collision or an accident. Also fire in a thermal runway is more intense and propagates extremely fast, compared to an ICE fire. There is even a YT channel run by a firefighter specializing in BEV fires.

    Agree/Disagree. China is copying what Tesla were doing a few years ago and is now coming close to matching them at their own game. But Tesla are still making very high quality EVs and are still selling good volume in China and globally.They should continue this and keep innovating.
    Putting all your hope in FSD is wishful thinking. Who's to say XPeng or BYD or someone else don't come up with L4 autonomy in the next few years as well, and beat Tesla to it? I say this because I really don't believe L4 can be acheived vision only. XPeng and BYD both are using radar and lidar as part of a suite that also includes vision, but is not vision only. BYD have about 100,000 software engineers all working on this goal. It wouldn't surprise me if they or XPeng or some other Chinese company get there first.
    The best way forward for Tesla is to continue to innovate and compete. They are up there with the best Chinese EVs and are better quality than most if not all Chinese EVs. For now. But for them to continue they need to innovate and to branch into more models, like a city car / hatch Model 2, like a normal pickup, and perhaps a van, as well as ramping up the Semi and the CT.
