From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
BYD is basically the only car company that has showed off cars I would like to buy.
And the United states is likely to never get them. Unlike the chicken tax with light trucks, I wouldn't be surprised if the BIG 3 are so afraid they lobby to completely block them from ever being built and sold here.
The west doesn’t want to move forward and instead are doubling down on fossil fuel energy. It’s so sad. Car manufacturers have succeeded in lobbying out change and making your vehicle a subscription.
