The US auto industry is in big trouble. China now makes 75 percent of all electric vehicles sold anywhere on earth. US automakers make around 5 percent.

    I thought I just read an article about how they were making and “selling” all these cars only to junk a lot of them. I guess it doesn’t matter if they are driven after they are sold as long as they are sold? Are these cars going directly to the scrap heap an amazing feat of technology for China, who also builds cities no one is allowed to live in? This is the future?

        I was a bit mistaken, it was about prototype cars. Anyways, anyone cheering for the Chinese EV industry should know exactly what they are cheering for https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2023-china-ev-graveyards/

        I’m not on anyone’s side but the earth’s
