It is because xingyuan weighs almost 400 kg less than BYD dolphin. very very well done geely i assume geely will surpass BYD and tesla within 4 or 5 years indeed.

    Shipping a car from China to Australia incurs additional costs, and the dealer needs to make a profit. For example, the MG4 Excite 51 (Mulan) sells for 115,800 yuan (about AUD $24,600) in China, while the MSRP in July 2024 in Australia is $39,990-a difference of approximately $15,390. Therefore, Chinese prices often don't reflect the final prices in other countries.

Toyota, Nissan, Honda are in tight situation right now as buyers will be selling their HEVs and new buyers will definitely try the PHEV offerings by BYD. It even comes with 10 speaker sound system by Infinity and after a recent economy run it travelled 1600km on a single full tank of gas and one full charge of battery.

    They could make it cheaper by taking out massage seats and 30 storage containers and other such not essential items like these. But anyway that red car has got to be the ugliest car made. well there are others in this style as well.
    Why do EVs have front ends that look like they are ICE vehicles with the radiator opening filled in. Has nobody got any design flair now that the radiator has gone or is the overpowering paradigm have the same body shell parts usable on evs, hybrids, and gas guzzlers.

    who knows ? Ford makes a dam good electric truck right out of the gate. Chevy the same thing. What Australian company makes trucks you Australians can drive around the outback ? ah mate ? Other countries other than China will be fine with EV's if they stop thinking so short term. I watched a show about battery technology and research today and the scientist pointed out that maybe 3 percent of research has be done on using Sodium in batteries . She also pointed out that America has a HUGE amount of Sodium .. WAY MORE exponentially than other countries . So, America and American car manufacturers will be fine IF we take a longer range approach to this electricity based future we are building . And it does not help for shows like this to be so China oriented and gloom and doom about it

    All is great , but this car (like its competitors in China) will never be sold in the US and Europa. But that's where they want to be!
    To enter those markets, they will have to have a factory on these continents and use local resources.
    Please stop using 'chinese pricing', as you address people globaly.
