The cheap chinese EVs are only really cheap because of the heavy subsidies provided by the Chinese governments. And they're mostly really targeting developing nations where a cheap car really matters. The US is already flooded with cars, and money so it's going to be a lot harder to break into that market. Plus both the people and the government have their biases against the Chinese to boot.
and they are designed to last 5 years and are rusting so bad that Russians are regretting them.
