EVs are getting more affordable worldwide — except in the U.S.
restofworld.org
The U.S. is impaired by a lack of supportive policy and subsidies, the unavailability of affordable Chinese models, and a preference for big cars.

    I travel for work overseas a lot.

    The ridiculous number of EV available to the consumer outside of the US is crazy. EBRO, BYD, JAECOO, CYE, XPENG, among others as well as homegrown startups receiving government incentives to produce everything from cars to e-motorbikes and scooters.

    The US is so far behind it’s laughable, the regressive cave men we have for politicians along with protectionist greed of the auto manufacturer and petroleum lobbies are wildly damaging.
