    Yeah, this comparison is terrible they’re purposefully putting an upper limit on price when comparing things. Not to mention that they aren’t even looking at features and range of these cars.

    Someone below mentions the “Wuling Hongguang”, the top selling car in China apparently. While it’s cheap, its max speed is 62mph and it has a range around 75 miles. Like of course that’s cheap, and could work in some situations, but that’s not comparable to any car sold in the US.

    The more I read into things like this the more I realize that cars are just expensive. Sure China has a wider range of options, but when comparing apples to apples things look more similar than I’d expect.

      100% agree, I too could get a car with no speed and range for cheap. Why compare that with something decent, and then brag about price?
