That's just such a ridiculous hypothetical that it's hard to engage with. The US doesn't make cheap, good cars, and for those of us who live here it's simply laughable that they ever could.

If someone came to me and said "here's an ev made by an american company that's as good as one made by a Chinese company", I'd likely laugh in their face and then buy the Chinese ev if I'm in the market for a car. Because I simply would never believe the claim that an american company made a good electric car, and furthermore I'd assume whoever was trying to convince me that they had was probably a paid shill or a grifter of some description. And I'd almost certainly be right.
