Similar to America, Europe is also artificially trying to make consumers choose native cars, by making Chinese ones more expensive.

Weirdly editorialized article with AI images when you could just link their Reuters source.

  1. EV cars pollute more than public transportation and therefore should not be cheaper than public transportation
  2. China engages in unfair state subsidies for their EV market, while the EU does not. (See Northvolt)

I think both America and Europe has been and are still very unfair, so pointing fingers at China seems ridiculous to me. Specially America that breaks every moral rule in the world to make money.

The US's Inflation Reduction Act was a pretty egregious case of state aid for EV cars, true.
