  • China's EV giant, BYD, makes more electric vehicles than any of its competitors and sells them for as low as $10,000. The cars are not yet sold in the U.S., where hurdles include a 25% import tariff. Meanwhile, U.S. lawmakers are concerned that smart car technology could be used to spy on American drivers. NBC News' Janis Mackey Frayer reports.

The chinese will shut everybody down first, then raise their prices. I want a cheap car too, but they have to regulate. In Germany 1/6 workers work in the auto industry, they will lose their jobs with such low prices. Same in the US.

      It's cheap, sorry. You're Chinese, Hong, so your bias will bleed heavily here.
      It's commendable to sell cars at $10,000 but corners will be cut for a price that low. I think China is capable of producing quality but it's just not worth it for you guys, the profit is too good. You must drive GDP up at all costs, even if it undercuts important priorities, which is your government's policy.
      Kias and Hyundais sell for about $40,000 and are still cheaply made. These cars have severe engine problems, faded paint, falling plastic trims, and burnt lights when they're less than one year old...China is notorious for this too but arguably at even a more severe degree.

That tariff is currently partially waived for EVs, but will be reinstated even for them in a few years.
      This is why Ford is being essentially ejected from the market after having chosen to stop local production; with it now having to pay those tariffs on all local car sales it simply can't compete with the likes of GM, VW, Fiat, etc, all of which have local production, or even BYD and GWM, whose local production hasn't started yet but whose import tariffs are currently lower due to them selling mostly EVs.

      It’s more than just “work harder for less”. You have to consider cost of living, income to expenses ration and that determines standard of living. Earning $1000 in another country would allow you to sustain the same standard of living as earning $5000 in the US. So unless you have your own business or work in high paying field North America lifestyle isn’t much different for majority of the people.

    Let's tell the truth about the subsidies instead of misleading people: government subsidy is for the whole EV industry:
    1. Government requirements for install charging stations in every expressway rest stops, shopping mall parking lots and quick permits process installing in residential compounds etc.
    2. 10% of registration tax (sales tax) is waived for EVs, but this includes all brands, domestic or imported, such as Tesla, BYD, VW, any EV from any brands, made anywhere
    3. Grants for battery research (there're government funding available for research on new type of batteries or improvement of existing batteries. University research labs as well as companies can all apply
    4. In some cities (mainly Shanghai and Beijing), license plate is not immediately available, but rather a lottery system is established for ICE cars, and fee is high, meanwhile, EVs can register and get license plate right away
    5. For the first couple of years, auto makers get a cash back for every EV they make, but soon it was abolished because the government found that some auto makers make the worst EV at the lowest cost that's possible, just to claim the cash back. That lasted a couple of years. Again, the cash back is for all EV makers, not just BYD or domestic manufactures.
    Conclusion: BYD is able of building a $10,000 car is not because of government subsidies, but rather because of its efficiency and automation and vertical integration. When I worked in China 15 years ago, BYD started research on LFP batteries already, and they firmly believed it was one of the best technology for EVs.

    Place 100% tariffs on them, then they will never sell in the US. Taiwan has been doing that over the past some 7 decades since the end of WWII, imposing 100% tariffs on imported auto vehicles. And it has been very effective, and even helps preventing Taiwan from developing its own auto industry. And that's why Taiwan still doesnt' have its auto industry.

    @1.25, the commentator said that "...for a limited time to allow the US manufacturers to catch up..."
    That is the general theme that has been thrown around, but ultimately, it failed. In Australia, the one locally designed and manufactured car, the Holden brand, was protected by the government by...yes, tariffs. Japanese cars were better, more consumer focused, and would you believe it? Cheaper.
    The government was desperate to have a local car industry for employment as well as prestige, being a car manufacturing nation. Despite the tariffs on the Japanese cars, Australians still chose them over the Holden cars because of many factors. Quality of finish, economy, value for money despite the extra tariffs on top of them, and reliability, finally closed the chapter for Holden, and the Australian government's desperate desire to have a car industry.
    So how long can tariffs protect US car industry? It depends on how patient are US consumers. When they realized that they have been ripped off by the government and the car industry, they would choose to cope the tariffs and buy imported cars, and stuff the patriotism bit.
