Sooner or later US govt will declare BYD as national security threat 😂😂😂😂😂. Come on USA.....you can do better than this
-
I just want them in the US so the price war can drop the insane US car prices
-
China: About 15% of automobile production is exported. South Korea: About 70% of automobile production is exported. Germany: About 75% of automobile production is exported. Japan: About 50% of automobile production is exported. United States: China’s auto industry has overcapacity.

I live in Norway, have Chinese collegue at work she drive Tesla, and my neighbor he’s American he drive BYD 😅 true story
-
When American companies are on top: free market When Chinese companies are on top: national security
-
Look at how hypocritical the United States is, they promote free trade. American cars can be sold in China, but Chinese cars are prohibited from being sold in the United States. Is this fair? Government subsidies? Does the United States not subsidize their cars or large aircraft factories? Double standards.

I don't have a BYD in the driveway, I have a BYD battery on the side of my house. Was paying $3400 per year for electricity, but now I get paid $3000 per year for the electricity my solar produces. BYD is making me money. 😁

I lived in Indonesia, BYD just launched the products 3 months ago. EV car here is very expensive past years, e.g : Ioniq 6 and Kia EV6 price around $80k , Tesla Model 3 Around $100.000 and BYD seal AWD only $45k . With similar quality and experience for all those car, it will be easy to pick BYD Seal. Waiting for my BYD Seal arrive, cant wait !
-
People are buying more BYD than Tesla in Singapore at the moment.
-
If US companies are nervous maybe they shouldn't be replacing all of their lower cost vehicles with premium SUVs and Trucks
-
Damn, we are so ripped off buying EV here. Their prices are so affordable with even longer ranges.
-
I bought a BYD EV this year. It's a fantastic car, great quality! I am loving the experience!
-
Had to laugh about the 'threat to domestic automakers'....the domestic automakers are threatened by their own crappy products.
-
Fun fact: a Honda civic is $15000 in China due to the ruthless competition
-
just got back from China - they have amazing EVs.
-
If Japan and South Korea can dominate the auto market, why cannot China?
-
I bought a BYD Atto 3 in Australia as it was way cheaper that the Tesla and the build quality was better. So far no problems.
-
When I will have enough money, I'll get this Vehicle. ❤ From Pakistan and we will continue to support our iron brother China❤

As recession fears mount on Wall Street and inflation remains well above the Fed's 2% target, some of the top commentators in markets, business, and economics have been sounding off on just how bad they think the next downturn might be — and how far stocks may have to fall. I need ideas and advice on what investments to make to set myself up for retirement, my goal is to have a portfolio of at least $850k at the age of 60.

One of the best things BYD has is its own cargo ship fleet. That's a genius move!
