Why would they bother? Biden is slapping 100% tariffs on any Chinese EV.

I don’t think there’s any plan to bring this to the US. If they did, GM would manufacture it in the ~~US~~ a NAFTA country (see reply below).

It would be built in Mexico. Just like Equinox and Blazer.

China wants to build EVs in Mexico too, and do the same as GM. but sell them for half of GM's prices.

[-] evenglow@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah but those Chinese EVs made in Mexico sold at a much lower price will not be sold in USA.

People in Mexico already buy Chinese EVs. It'll just be cheaper.

China has no plans to sell in USA while the laws and tariffs change as soon as the US government finds out Volvo is planning to import a Chinese made EV and sell it for $35,000.

That's still only a $15-20k car
