[@hitardo]

My main issue is repairability! Because, vehicles are the most repairable consumer product in the World, while being one of the most complex pieces of machinery in the World. Moreover, a product can only be sustainable if it is able to achieve a long product life-cycle. Hence, my questions are: a. Will we get support from the OEM long-term? b. Will independent shops get access to OEM's information, e.g., the procedures to perform maintenance, or material specifications? c. Will spare parts be available? d. Will aftermarket parts be available? These questions are what truly matters in a vehicle, alligned with the two main vehicle aspects: reliability and support - not its power, software capabilities, or price. Because a vehicle holds too much value, too much resources, and too much man hours to be discarded easily. However, I think people have taken these two aspects for granted - which Chinese companies have taught us we can not, e.g., on smartphones, cheap electronics, and televisions. I own a 22-year old car, which still drives me to and from work every work day reliably, comfortably, and efficiently. A cheap, light, and small car - a 2001 Renault Clio, with a gasoline 1.2L 16v engine, producing 75 hp, consuming 5.5 L/100km. It is a well-known and simple vehicle to work on, spare parts are readily available, and it is cheap (to maintain, insure, tax, and on fuel). And, by being small, it spent quite less resources than a modern EV - while lasting 22 years, and I still intend on driving it one more year, and selling it in 2024 or 2025. This is sustainability!

[@chjin1796]

The structure of an electric car is much simpler than that of a gasoline vehicle. As a result, their maintenance intervals are much longer than those of gasoline vehicles. Reliability is also higher. Although China's electric vehicles are being replaced very quickly. But as long as you choose a big brand, there will be no problem with spare parts. Most Chinese car companies do not make profits from spare parts, and the parts-to-part ratio is not high.

That is not how it works, Europe was exporting car but importing large quantity of parts, machines and tools so it was a fair trade off however Europe still had a negative trade deficit so China was benefiting in exchange European companies were bringing back to Europe large income which was taxes to fund large social programs in Europe. Now, if European companies are not longer making money from China and unable to compete in the local European market and are no longer making money which pays for taxes for social programs, and Europe has negative trade deficit then Europe will be badly impacted by this trade imbalance and will probably take aggressive actions. China cannot win on every level and expect the world to just turn over and die for it. Europe needs to support its own economy and population.

@@drscopeify It's been said that part of Europe's trade deficit is due to their voluntary refusal of cheap oil and natural gas from Russia, opting to purchase energy from the United States (albeit 'slightly' more expensive because it's considered democratic energy). How should this be attributed to the Chinese? Additionally, Americans prohibit Europeans from selling high-tech products like lithography machines to China. Does this also fall on the Chinese?

[@drscopeify]

[@MaksimSSM]

Lager car will be better 😂

[@AsadAf-rs1mm]

good for customer and consumers.

[@lagrangewei]

german are so well informed. the german chamber of commerce in singapore had a very serious talk about china, they had a very realistic understanding that we in asia do not wish to get in a confrontation and are more comfortable with integration of the asian economies. these frank understanding you would not get from american or british who may be well aware is the case but dare not speak frankly out of fear of being "cancelled".

[@Starship007]

Chinese and South Korea both offer huge battery factories

[@vastkingsley]

Ich halte es für eine gute Sache, dass chinesische Elektroautos nach Europa kommen können. Das gibt den Menschen eine große Auswahl. Wettbewerb bedeutet, dass verschiedene Autohersteller qualitativ hochwertige und preisgünstige Autos produzieren. Der ultimative Nutzen sind die Verbraucher.

我现在很难理解欧洲人还在买丰田，现代那些垃圾车

[@AoibhinnMcCarthy]

In UK n Ireland. Cars are expensive. Oil also expensive. I really like to see these cheap EVs coming to UK or Ireland and setting factories to provided jobs for locals.

[@picandvideo]

If not where else! 🤣😄

[@milosstevanovic1377]

With counters on batery. Mercedes and German carmakers are spitting on history made by that companies. It’s shocking what they did with those companies

[@goelnuma6527]

Rolls Royce and Bentley don't need to look at this video..

[@JasonD-yc3oy]

the ioniq 5 made in china? such a great car

[@Nk99995]

How can Germany compete? Gas prices/Raw Material/Labor costs are really high.

[@lancesay]

all software code is written in English letter, not Chinese charters and he Chinese is beat the software building, unbelievable... there you go!

[@positivesociety-xs1bw]

And now India wants to rub shoulders with China 😂😂

[@-joe90]

🐉💪🏻

[@zhengjy5401]

what kinds of cars do you think we need in the future? small and spacious.😂

[@RohitVermaJaiBhim]

If BRICS specially China and India 🇮🇳 get together... Western Monopoly ends

[@WaltervonKurzgesagt]

The Chinese have really picked up their game in the last 10 years. Their cars are more reliable than some of the local big brands. Looking at you BMW

[@RalfWirtz-qq7ss]

Chinese Cars dominante with connectivity, not necessarily with quality and safety. For good reason BYD is leading fire accidents, although saying the blade battery is a safe one. However, it is not the battery only, but the entire battery and charging management. At the end the customer need to decide what he or she prefer: cheap electric features or a safe and reliable car. Keep in mind: we drive on highways while Chinese stück in traffic jams. Data Shows a dail max. range of 50 km and and avg. Speed of 15 km/h. Accident No. 1: front Crash due to strong acceleration.

[@user-cw9em3mo3w]

Elon Musk has said the Chinese are the competition, i seeJàpan and Europe auto industry in trouble!

[@bdcalling1391]

Clever move

[@willeisinga2089]

China leads the Way. Thank You China for Affordable EV Cars.

[@Starship007]

Germany very concerned over cheaper Chinese EV’s. Thinking of dropping tax incentives on EV’s and tariffs on Chinese EV’s like USA

[@AhmedAli-wt2qh]

Unless Chinese EVs are cheaper than German EVs/Tesla, and has same infrastructure for after care,I will still buy Tesla which has established itself well in UK/Europe.

[@Ame36338]

Tesla is rubbish, only self boast. Many accidents around the globe due to software bugs. Car lost control. I guess American made always hire the $8/ hr Indian software engineer to write their software like what Boeing did with their $100 millions planes. Quality, safety, reliability?? 🤣🤣🤣Big mouth always like to self boast like Trump.

[@connermini9390]

I heard that many German car companies have cooperated with Chinese people.

[@noyanali6855]

i gona buy BYD

[@udhelhc]

I have always driven German cars, but my new one will probably be a Nio or a Tesla. Definitely not German.

[@MrGanbat84]

Love these electric cars 🎉🎉🎉❤

[@canozmen9527]

I love EVs. They quiet and fast. 906hp Lotus Eletre R is my dream car.

[@user-cw9em3mo3w]

Question will be "will Chinese BEVs be more reliable and cheaper to maintain than German cars?" Something tells me they sure will be reliable. Tesla sure has setthe bar highwhen itcomes to Teschnology and. Production efficiency.

[@przemysawjabonski3013]

Mam nadzieję, że Chińczycy otworzą fabryki w Polsce.
