Why They Don’t Want You Driving a Chinese Car

I took my first ride in a Chinese car recently. Not in the U.S., of course, since sky-high tariffs have made them almost impossible to import. I was visiting family in the U.K., and we rented a BYD Sealion SUV. And let me tell you: I saw immediately why American car companies are desperate to have these things kept out of this country. It was elegantly designed, incredibly comfortable, and a smooth ride.

Fair enough.

Personally I don't have any reason to travel to China either, but at the same time, it's never impossible that one day I'll have a contract with some Chinese company for an example. The US, however, I'm going to avoid for at least the next 2.5 years still. Potentially for the rest of my life if they don't sort their shit out. I can afford to, since I don't live right next to them.
