BYD has been growing in popularity in Japan since they launched the Atto 3 this year, which is a bit surprising given how protective we are about using Japanese cars normally. There are a couple new models scheduled to be released soon. They made a really clever decision to use a lot of local Japanese manufactures for parts and molds, so local Japanese suppliers were a lot more receptive to them. People are lot more likely to look at your company favorably when you give locals jobs. I wouldn't be surprised if they were making a push to other markets including the US soon.
The US will probably try to block it by saying that they scan your brain as you drive and send to the data to the "evil ccp".
EDIT: I am personally looking at the Atto3 as my next car, as I moved somewhere where I probably need one. I am taking one for a test drive next week actually.
Are there Chinese EVs even in the US currently? Itd be funny if some chud imported one just to performatively destroy it lol
