      Sad the Chinese EV manufacturers don’t want to enter the USA market due to the huge tariffs. Worldwide, BYD is more popular than Tesla. In China, they have pretty decent cars for less than US$15k.

      Australia has no tariffs on car imports and the Chinese brands are getting very popular. The last car manufacturers in Australia closed in 2017, so there’s no local car industry left to protect.
