      Compared to the rest of the market and especially new EVs, this is a good price. That’s not to say it’s affordable, just that it’s less expensive relative to pretty much every new car on the market in the US in the last several years.

      Can you name one example of an EV in this price range that meets western crash safety standards?

        No, but I’m also aware that safety concerns from a capitalist system isn’t a thing. Chinese EV bans are more about the impact on established ICE companies pocketbooks than safety.
