May I recommend a European EV instead? 😀

Personally I love my VW ID.4. But I understand they are not well represented in North America.
So maybe a Volvo? They are really nice too, my neighbor has one.
But for anyone with enough money, BMW or Mercedes is probably the way to go. 💸 💸 💸

On our small street we all have electric cars now! VW ID.4 VW ID.3, Volvo XC40, BMW i4. Nissan Ariya.
We all switched within 2 years. 😎 😀

I like Volvo, but since they're made in China, I might as well look at BYD.

Volvo is made in Sweden, but owned by a Chinese company.

Some Volvos are made in Sweden. New EVs are from China if I remember right. Owners of the brand are Chinese (Geely or something like that).

Apparently Volvo has factories all over the world, they once even had 1 in Canada.

Mostly teslas, I hear?

Fuck musk.

Is a Chinese tesla better than a car with components sourced with slave labour?
