    That doesn’t exist anywhere…and I frankly don’t think it ever will.

      You provide no proof of the facts you state, therefore it’s just as easy for me to say you’re wrong as it is to believe you. 🤷🏼‍♂️

        And what’s the range on that? Spoiler: It’s 190 mi base with a max 252 mi. That’s nowhere near 350mi!

          Okay thanks. That meme sure is inaccurate isn’t it. I’ll go have a word with the meme council and try to get that straightened out.

              Fine here

              You good? All of your pressing concerns addressed? Everything to your meme satisfaction? Need some more documentation? Can we let the service workers go home now?

                Well, since you asked:

                • The base range is 187mi. You’re going to need to spend more if you want the 252mi range.
                • That’s the price in China. It costs thousands of dollars to move a vehicle halfway across the world. There’s a reason the price is Australia and Europe is significantly higher!

      Downvotes are due to China shills and people who don’t understand reality. EVERY post about Chinese EVs goes exactly the same way.

        Why is the US so worried to the point of applying a hilariously high 100% tariff? Don’t claim security concerns because if that was really the case then they’d outright ban them instead of resorting to tariffs.

        You’re just hunkering down inside your bubble, while offering nothing to the conversation.

        There’s a BYD stand close to where I work, I was looking at a “Dolphin” that has around 500 miles of range and costs 30k€.

        That’s still twice as what’s in the meme, but they keep getting closer.

        If you have some sort of grudge against China automakers, Dacia has its Spring. It costs about what’s in the meme, but with half the range though.

        It’s not hard to see a future where 350 miles for 15k is a reality, but the market needs competition.

      Logically the refutation is kind of easy. Your prediction hinges on two things. A predicate that technology will never get better or cheaper.

      Both of those things happen all the time as such, the refutation is simple.

      Points to our entire technological history

        Vehicles aren’t just one technology though, they are commodity items. Cellphones are more expensive than a decade ago, so are laptops. The average ICE car has gotten much more expensive over time. So, do you think EV technologies will get significantly cheaper quicker than inflation and the general direction of the industry?

          The example of the mobile phone is pretty wrong. The first mobile cost about $4000 and the cheapest today still costs around $25. The original cars cost 30k adjusted for inflation with the cheapest today costing around 15.

          Once again. It’s always held true. Outside factors could make it take longer but ultimately you said never. Which basically makes your original statement near impossible.

            I said a decade ago, not the very first. I also should have said “smartphone”. Powering cars by battery isn’t a brand new technology.

            The original cars cost 30k adjusted for inflation with the cheapest today costing around 15.

            I was responding to a meme that said $15K, not $15K (inflation adjusted).

          The Chinese government is subsidising the car industry to outcompete and destroy other manufacturers. These cars are being sold for less than they’re worth. This is why the EU is banning them. Its the same thing when you in wish and order something for 3 dollars. The Chinese government subsisdises the postage in China and international law means your post has to deliver it in your country.
