  1. They are undisputed king of evs here in Asean.

  2. There are Byd electric taxis plying the city of Shenzhen in China for the past 7 to 8 years, already clocking up hundreds of thousands of km in mileage. Without having to replace their batteries. This is Byd first generation E6 model. Shenzhen public transportation has gone 100% electric since 2017.

  3. Many Byd models already achieved a 5 star safety rating from Euro NCAP. Like Atto 3, Seal and Dolphin. Shouldn't be a problem for this model as well.

  4. Proof is in the pudding . Not some Chinese videos. Have also read about Byd early E6 ev model which is used as taxis in Shenzhen. Some of them have accrued hundreds of thousands of km in mileage over the past 7 years as taxis in that city. Without having to replace their batteries . Public transportation has gone 100% electric in Shenzhen since 2017. Very easy to verify how the electric taxis and buses are doing so far.

  5. Yet many of their models from BYD, Nio and Xpeng have achieved 5 star safety ratings from Euro NCAP. This is one reason why EU is so worried about them coming into their market. Affordable and reliable. If they are deathtraps like you said, EU wouldn't be the least concerned about Chinese evs. Why bother to investigate and threaten more tariffs? European brands are safe. No will buy Chinese. Right?

  6. ​ @Michael-yi4mc  Either you do that or you'll get third world imports. Like Europe. Choice is yours.

  8. The reason they dominate here in Asean is the fact that they are affordable and reliable. They have been on the road for more than a year. Already as ubiquitous as Toyotas.

  9. Do you know VW have just invested 700 million dollars for a 5% stake in Chinese ev maker Xpeng. To get access to their ev tech. VW have also invested a billion dollars to set up their ev research and development centre in Hefei China because they know where the latest ev innovations are coming from. And it's certainly not back home in Wolfsburg Germany.

  10. So why is EU so worried about them coming to their market? No one will buy them. European brands are safe. No need to investigate and threatened more tariffs. Right?
