Why China’s Electric Car Lead Has Been a Long Time Coming

When it comes to green manufacturing, China is now a clean-energy powerhouse. Its market dominance from solar panels to electric vehicles took long-term planning and a level of financial investment only state-controlled banking systems can deliver. By 2030, China will have an outsized influence on this strategic industry, and it’s poised to seize a fair share of the jobs and wealth creation that come with it.

In my city here in Brazil the civil guard arm of law enforcement already operates BYD cars since 2019, this year the petrol cars were totally retired and now it's 100% electric vehicles, the other arms of the police are also testing BYD cars. Some buses are BYD too and there are plans to retire all current buses for BYD buses. Other cities in the region (the "interior" of São Paulo state) are starting trials with these vehicles in their police forces as they have proven to be more econominal in the long term, more capable chasers and simply better in so many regards, even São Paulo city itself is trialing the BYD cop cars, that's a city of 12 million (23 million metro), the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, so if they follow a similar path to other cities here there will be thousands of these BYD cars operating with the police there. I imagine it will still take some time for these inititatives to spread widely here, but it's definitely exciting.

I have been visiting China very regularly for the past decade and half. The standard Western media (e.g. Bloomberg) adjective of "authoritarian" or "draconian" that pliant Western journalists routinely tack onto China and its domestic policies is absolutely trash. Within the confines of domestic regulations, Chinese citizens enjoy a great deal of freedom and are pretty satisfied with their lot.

[@oscarmore2]

That's because they enjoying their rising of the economy, and rising of economy will shift and justify the narration of their story and their ideology. Which western world done that before. Western countries have successfully justified the democratic narration and laundered the olden-day imperialism invasion crime to the their-world countries. While the decline of western countries (especially USA) and rise of Asia (especially China), the peak economy entity, whom is earn by its peaceful development (Mostly refer to China), has the responsibility to adopt and reform the olden-day narration into the global acceptable ideology, which is the rightful national self-determination and real multilateralism. And hopefully this would lead to another golden age of human history. Even though, in many ways, China itself have many tasks undone and tons of domestic issue need to be solved. In anyhow most of Chinese people are very optimistic about it. During this process, China needs to adopt more Western successful result to create more innovation, so that they could contribute more to human being.

No matter what the show is to discredit China: 1. "Xinjiang Compulsory Labor", but no one can show definite evidence. 2. "China steals American technology." In fact, some technologies are more advanced in China than in the United States. 3. "China does not attach importance to environmental protection." In fact, China's annual forest growth is the highest in the world. Western countries have always spared no effort to discredit China. They are afraid of the rise of China, because these countries invaded China 200 years ago, and the United States is unwilling to challenge its international status.😅

[@stephendoherty8291]

1- lets all accept that China is excellent at hiding evidence. Yes its criminal but its not exactly the industrial powerhouse of China. If it ended tomorrow, would it make China less competitive- no. 2 - China does steal technology and we all know it. Since you can disguise any hacker then you can never prove anything about a hacking operation. Russia does it for money and to gain an insight into the west, North Korea does it to get western foreign exchange and keep the dictatorship running. Do other countries have in house hacking teams - of course. Does the US use the NSA to gain an insight into Beijing- yes but it tends not to do it for industrial espionage rather military access as every major power does. Does China have some advanced tech - yes- its likely the leader in any manufacture globally on everything at scale. It can focus plans without worrying about public or private industry lobbying. This has a massive impact on getting stuff done fast and reaping the rewards. Competition from global firms in China is a rarity over time as China wants its firms to dominate at home at least. 3 I would say that was yes at the start of its capitalist post Mao plans. It needed to access the same resources at the cheapest way- coal for energy was the cheapest but dirtiest. Unlike the US, it never had oil it could use at home nor did it provide the market that every petrostate near depend on. So why would anyone want to generate an even bigger market for a fuel they have to import? Germany has learnt this lesson the hard way with Russian gas. The US car makers learnt a hard lesson with fuel efficient post opec Japanese cars. Now I would say that China has an answer- electrify transport- its almost done this by cutting demand for internal flights by having a high speed rail network. Making wind turbines and PV panels is easy for China. Geely might be a powerhouse at home but almost all chinese car makers are unknown outside China unless they buy a western brand (Volvo who were near bankrupt at the time of its sale, Mercedes by deceptional tactics of buying its shareholding to access its advanced engineering and learn from the best) . Would Mercedes be able to buy a premier Chinese firm under the radar.

[@elielee7364]

[@riteshshah4897]

Chinese infrastructure technologies such as bridge making using their giant machine(I forgot what it's called) and high-speed railway technologies are unheard of. The way they build them so fast and at the lowest cost possible is simply amazing.

Chinese leadership is composed by technocrats with mostly engineering background, whilst the United States leadership is composed by mostly lawyers and business men. This creates the fundamental differences in the way both countries leadership making decisions. Engineers are methodical and follow goals by a time frame or achieving milestones. Often, Chinese sets big vision 10-20 years ahead of her time with small achievable goals every 3-5 yrs (look at how Chinese develop her space station projects, alleviation of poverty or how they develop EV car industry). Engineers are also trained problem solvers (look at how they defuse the nation's hosing bobbles and size down the oligopolies). The political system also allows Chinese to be a chess player whilst the United States are playing chequers. So far, I do not see the USA in any way can compete with China in the long term with either infra-structure investments or making economic competition (which we all know white house is highjacked by wall street). With every 4 years new president to be elected, no chance that this country can make a long term decision strategically, and in this game, a tactical decision player can not match her rival.

@@user-ni6py2qv4q A small battery EV is so much more practical if you only have a short commute: It is cheaper to buy, cheaper to charge, easier to park and has plenty of range anyway on moderately congested city streets where you crawl along at 20-40km/h. On a bad day, when traffic is slow but still fluid, I go as low as 60Wh/km, so I only need to charge my 20kWh battery once a week if I only use the car for work! Globally this applies to the majority of car owners, so obviously luxury EVs are not for us, nor significant in transforming transport on a mass scale. In the West high end EVs are over represented, as brave manufacturers are trying to recoup their investment, but when the supply chain is complete, lots of generic EV components will be available, so manufacturers are able to churn out cheap EVs massively. China has got it already, Europe and the US is 5-10 years behind.

Actually I really like these Chinese EV. There is this one line of EV or Etuk tuk or rickshaws that are very popular in China. The lk1500fc is what they are called and they are usually made from side manufactured parts. The chassis are stamped by bigger companies who have the spare capacity and can make it in one go. The motor is sourced from heavy duty washing machines cause the motor is capable of driving a car. The batteries are lead ones recycled from waste centers. And the rest of the car is sourced from surplus or stuff that can’t be sold else where.

And Indonesia is going to be a global player in terms of battery production for EV because of our Nickel reserve and strategic locations for Japanese, Korean, and Chinese automobile companies to set up plants and factories. The EV ecosystem is going to be concentrated in Asia and Australia especially with the raw nickle export ban that's imposed now in Indonesia. Tesla had the chance to cooperate with Indonesia in this early stage but they turned their back last minute to Australia for its Nickel and India for its plant, the Asian companies are getting the opportunities now and they're already building big plants in addition to their existing factories here. Such a shame because Tesla could grab the rising South East Asian market for EV. Even the small town where i live in northernmost tip of an island already has 2 EV charging stations despite we don't even shift to EV yet.

[@sorahito4308]

Hope 'the nickel' will be indonesia's bargaining power just like saudi arabia with their oil, i think its all depend with the human resource in the country, cz okay lets say indonesia have many natural resource such as nickel but, it will be useless if it can't be used as well as possible. Hope there will be many EV from indonesia!!! And indonesia will be the biggest EV exportir to the world, lol!

Frank Fukuyama, the political scientist, call the Chinese system "responsive authoritarianism". The largest public opinion Survey Company in China is used, not just by the central government, but also by the city government, provincial government, down to the most local politicians of neighbourhood districts, conducting surveys all the time to determine the needs of the people so that work can be carried out to fulfil their needs. This is the mechanism use to be responsive to the demands and thinking of the people. The Western way of elections, after elections, after elections is not the Chinese way. It’s not by accident that China is able to lift 800 million Chinese out of poverty in one generation.

I watched the entire show and didn't see anything about China beating Tesla at its own EV game.

Again, Bloomberg seems to show it doesn't actually get EVs.

BEIJING/SHANGHAI, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Mercedes-Benz, the German company founded by the inventors of the motor car, is pouring more resources into its cutting-edge research and design capabilities in China as the centre of gravity of the new auto world shifts eastwards. In a drive to create a "home away from home", Mercedes-Benz is doubling down on bases in Beijing and Shanghai to stay ahead of regulations and consumer trends in a car market that outstrips the United States and Germany combined.

[@cyberslim7955]

You are clueless! China has over 2 million public fast chargers! T junk and its SuC network is totally irrelevant!!! Look at GAC Aion V with almost 100kWh batter and 440 mi range. Looks really nice, and made by joint venture partner of Toyota, so quality is outstanding. Compare this to T junk out of Shanghai with smaller batter and way less range. T will not survive the onslaught with their junk and disgusting marketing lies!

[@HTeo-og1lg]

No, Bloomberg Quicktake gets it on EV. But it is more interested in another agenda (a geo-political one) like most US companies doe nowadays. Don't you notice that when mentioning that China is out producing ev cars, it mentions more persistently on its dominating the market for geo-political reasons, when, it is actually more for reasons that the chines cities are so polluted that any govt. would push their car makers to make EVs without the luxury of hesitation, else the residents were about to choke and collapse from the fumes that 28 million cars increasing every yearly creates!

The charging differences between china and America have to be crazy different. In china not everyone can charge at home but in America many more can which makes mass amounts of charge points less necessary. I’m not saying that we aren’t far behind I’m just saying that specific comparison isn’t what it appears at face value. I still think we need more chargers in the us!

If we really want empowered change, we must look beyond usury/commodity currencies that put quantitative prices on our heads. Any worthwhile currency must be based on the work of the people choosing to use it. No tax, fees, costs, or interest. Add paying for education and infrastructure, and we finally have a currency that values creating the highest quality experiences to empower the most people in the most sustainable way possible. Only then will we achieve a true, full energy exchange without a bank leak, and offer the empowerment and freedom all people are looking for.
