Of course, just like all great value EVs, it's only available in China.

Even if it was released in other countries, the price wouldn't be nearly as good. The EU, for instance, slaps a 35% tariff on all Chinese cars, so it'd be easily over $20k, not even including transport costs.

    It absolutely is. I don't know what I was thinking.

    Which kind of makes it very interesting why the car only went for sale in China, and not in Korea.

    Another comment says that if foreign car brands want to sell cars in China or maybe make cars in China I'm not sure, they have to have a Chinese subsidiary. This is all more complicated than what I understand.
