China is wrecking EV markets globally, because the global consumer eventually gets caught in the scam and fewer and fewer people will buy them out of skepticism and safety issues. This is not such a bad thing. Chinese made lithium batteries catch uncontrollable thermal runaway fires far too often, which can't be extinguished by normal fire hydrants because the fire provides it's own oxygen (I,e. Could burn in an airless environment, like the moon). This makes storage of EVs in places like underground and high rise carparks highly risky. Let alone in garages in houses. The additional predatory market practises by CCP China and their poor and fake safety features in EVs in comparison to how cars could be quality built, is also hampering EV sales. Eventually, selling EVs will die. No one will want them. This is already happening. Additionally, hybrid vehicles will also face a similar decline after EVs have had their day, for similar safety concern and poor quality build control reasons. I already know a person (not me) who has bought a foreign exported BYD EV, and the battery has died within 20,000 kilometres of use.
