I think I read that the US is considering tariffs or something to basically raise the cost of these cars for US consumers.
There is already an effective 27.5% tariffs on cars made in China. They are still considering to raise it higher.
Well I do t live in the US anymore and there are Chinese cars where I live. Additionally electric cars are just starting to hit the roads here, so hopefully, when my wife and o get a car, we can get an electric one.
Also not American but yeah.
Free market. But not really. Govt will meddle when it suits
