    Thought i read somewhere that BYD or another manufacturer was looking to build manufacturing in Mexico to take advantage of the NAFTA agreement…. If that’s the case then it’s a question of them meeting US standards. I just remember the hilariously bad crash tests where that cars were the crumple zones.

      I thought there were no standards for car manufacturing in the US (isn’t that the reason Muskrat is able to sell the trucks without crash-testinh them ?)

        There are no standards for hitting pedestrians, who don’t exist in the u.s. There are plenty for car on car collisions cause that’s all that matters.
