I have been working with OEM electronics suppliers in China for 35 years, even way back in the early 2000s the Chinese were already implementing restrictions on new electronics products to reduce emissions. So much so that even when western countries started implementing restrictions on power efficiency in consumer products, none of our products needed to be updated.

Yeah, the OEMs had the opportunity to listen, and change. Just because they dragged their feet for 7 years, and ignored the new emission standards announced in 2016, does not make the CCP the instigator of this disaster. That being said, your channel is the only place where this news is breaking. Thank you so much Sam.

I'm disappointed that Sam is now suddenly pushing this anti-China garbage. He himself has been telling us for months that it's the legacy auto-makers own damned faults that they didn't make EVs before Tesla gained such a huge lead. He's been telling us for as long as I can remember about BYD, Nio, and so many other EV makers in China, about how crazy intense the competition in China's car market is. There is no reason to think China has some secret evil plan to kill foreign car makers. The same car makers are dying in their own home market. Sam himself has been telling us. Yes, it's going to be a bloodbath in China. The CCP is just going to stand back, and let the free market work. Bailing out the workers, but letting shareholders and companies take the brunt of it. You know, like how the free market is supposed to work. I can't believe it is the communists who be the ones to figure this out. 🤦♂️

I don't think China had some sinister plot in mind when they allowed foreign companies to operate in China. Rather it was foreign companies that went to China to exploit their cheap labor and lack of environmental regulations. The world was happy exploit China for financial gain. Today, China is a powerhouse leading the world into a cleaner future at a far greater pace than anyone ever expected. The transition to EV's is no longer an option and there won't be enough money to bail everyone out. It won't be just automakers that suffer. Each manufacturer has thousands of suppliers that will lose their businesses. Entire nations will see changes in their financial power as we transition away from fossil fuels. The transition will be painful for many, but it will be better for everybody.

We the U.S. are gonna shock and awe some folks here right quick. 10-12,000,000 U.S. built evs a year by 2030 or sooner and adding more new capacity and factories every month it seems. We have enough renewable energy and bess just waiting to inter connect to our grids to 2-3x the current 21% of renewable electrical generation capacity. We could be 80%+renewable and nuclear powered by 2027 if we get out of our own way or sooner. 😎

Maintenance of the battery pack, inverter, engine/transmission will be highly specialised due to the variety of schemes and high voltages.😢

G'day, Squeak for yourself... My son is 33, he lives in an Off-Grid Stand-Alone Solar House, he's the town's Auto-Electrician - I raised him on Kerosene-Lamps and Candles, till my early home-made Wind Turbines started spinning Current from the Breeze - and then Solar Panels became way cheaper and more reliable than my Windmills. My Hut and Workshop and eBike all run from my Solar Tracking Tower of Power, and my daughter lives in a Solar Electric 6-metre diameter Yurt..., which has it's own Array, Controller, Batteries, Inverter (and 750w Backup Genny - let's be honest). I've taught the townspeople agound here how to cut their ICE-powered Vehicles' Fuelburns by between 5% and 35% - simply by adding a PV Panel and a Solar Charge Controller, and an Inline Fuse between the Battery and Controller. The SunFoil (streamlined Solar Array) FINISHES Recharging the Vehicle's Battery after the Alternator shuts down, when the Engine is switched off - at every Journey's end...; thus EVERY Time that the Engine is started, it is after the Battery "went to bed fully fed...", so after startup - the Alternator doesn't have to load-up the Crankshaft via the Step-up Drive, trying to fast-charge a part-flat Battery - so therefore it isn't burning any extra Fuel to spin what amounts to being an Electromagnetic Drag-Brake through a Torque-Multiplier, all to tow a 30% flat Lead/Acid "Parachute"..., dragging along "behind" the Fueltank-On-Wheels...(!). (Backtrack me to my Playlist titled, "The SunFoil Project..." For all the Raw Observational Experimental Data, Analysis, Construction Videos, and also the Australian Government's CSIRO Evaluation and ENDORSEMENT of my results...). When he was a 1st year Apprentice, my son allowed me to fit the 20 Watt Mk-2 SunFoil on his Subaru Brumby, to compare against the 5 Watt Mk-1 on my Subaru 1800 Touring Wagon, and then the 30 Watt Mk-3 on mine, and then he got a 4-WD Turbocharged Diesel Rodeo which tested the 30 Watt Mk-5...; after that, when he bought the Business where he'd served his Apprenhiceship, he put 2x 120 Watt + 2 x 45 Watt Panels onto his 5-ton Isuzu Workshop Truck..., after which I put a 30 Watt Mk-8 onto my Subaru Forester, and a 70 Watt Mk-8 onto my daughter's Forester... Observing us, Behaving thus... The rest of the town Apparently figured out that It isn't a Bullshit Idea... There are now maybe 60 or 100 locally-registered Vehicles getting around, Up and down the Main Street, sporting DIY Copycat Samizdat SunFoils... In Glen Innes, NSW, Oz. If you raise your kids to live in their Future, then you have to raise them to know how to REPAIR EVERYTHING which They'll need to use, in order to Maintain some semblance of a Comfortable Lifestyle. Because, Anthropogenic Global Warming Is WINNING.... Buggar it !!! Such is life, Have a good one... Stay safe. ;-p Ciao !

China 6 emission standards, including the 6b-part that comes into play this July, were announced and put into law in 2016. This is hardly a surprise for anyone, nor is it any attempt by the government to 'nuke' the industry. As a matter of fact, China 6b is mostly comparable to American Tier 3 standards, that will be in effect in 2025. Euro 6 and 7 is way behind on most emissions levels, but Euro 7 has some interesting and yet not fully defined OBD regulations. The cars in dealer lots are not a problem for the car companies. They sold them already, the money is in the bank. It is a problem for dealerships, as you explained correctly. The current situation has probably a lot more to do with covid than with emission standards. The insecurity of the pandemic at first, China's quick re-starting of the economy and massively overheating it, following parts shortages, very long delivery times and to top it off, the backlash when the government changed its covid policy. Supply and demand have been out of tune for almost three years now. And the dealers are of course the ones taking the biggest hit, having a large stock when they didn't need it and nothing to sell when everyone was spending their money. During the early days of covid many brands started to experiment with direct sales and sales through online platforms. Many now have both online and offline sales channels. It will be interesting to see if the dealership model survives in China.

a few years ago Xi determined that there were far too many Chinese car companies, > 600, and they made the hard strategic move to create policy that would whittle this down. This change is healthy for the industry. Too much competition is bad because you can never attain scale and consumer can't tell who is not a scam, most were really bad and poor quality. You also don't want too little competition as this will hurt consumers greatly. So right now Chinese auto industry is going through a healthy rebalance, but there is just some collateral damage along the way, but in the end this will let the survivors be healthier, stronger, better.

There is no domestic market and no way to get that money out other than buy raw materials in China to make cars for export.

The argument's main fault is that China had announced the progress and even specified which year as target to transform into EV in "China". The traditional car manufacturers could blame no one but themselves. If they could not satisfy the Chinese market, then they could sell the products outside China or go to some other place where their fossil fuel car still competitive. Indeed, I have noticed that China did not put their effort to improve their fossil fuel engine and instead has been spending heavily in new energy technologies R&D including batteries.

Few points: - in Shanghai or Beijing, the difficulty of registering cars is not new and has been there for decades and you would never have bought a car before securing the right to buy one in these cities and yet it never affected overall demand. but also if you have a car already and wants to change then there is 0 difficulty into changing the registration over - Car manufacturers are appealing right now for the right to continue selling current models with CHina 6 standard until at least December 31 2023 and if possible June 30 2024. The likelihood is that some extension will be granted because this is the way things are in China. They float an idea, see what the reaction is and adapt. And one thing that is very important is that the extension is likely to be granted because all the brands you see as Japanese, US or German are in joint-venture with Chinese state owned companies and except for luxury models which are imported the rest are made in China. So for example Citroen's partner is Dongfeng, a huge stateowned carmaker, and part of the discounts on those cars is being funded by the Hubei provincial government. So in fact this will also cost the state a lot so it is likely that rules on China 6b emissions will be delayed at least for part of the country (and by the way these rules are coming in most other countries as they are part of commitment on climate change emission reductions). anyway, so people will wait and see if discounts get bigger or not. But the future is electric and demand there is slacker and I would not conclude Elon Mush was right... Whilst Tesla is still doing "ok" in China, it is like Starbucks. a victim of its success... too many sales, too early. And so few models.... Compared to 3 years ago, there is no stigma now in choosing a Li L9 or Xpeng G9 or Aito M5 or IM - LS7 or a Nio ES7.... Now Tesla is reacting by cutting prices a lot (RMB229 k for a base model 3 now) but in the end these other brands are also getting much better at marketing ... And they understand Chinese customers better.... all offer their cars in colors that in the US or Europe may be weird but that many want here. But in the end, we will see if Elon Musk going it alone in China without a JV partner is the right thing or not. When things are good, it is a good idea, when things slow down, well.... who knows also whilst BMW is doing huge discounts on BMW i3 which cannot sell in China (so many other mini and small EVs so no market for an imported subpar small EV given import taxes), they are also making a huge push on the BMW i7.... And in small EV segment, Benz was smart to start that JV with Geely. Probably not huge number but that smart #1 is appealing to more and more people and we see a lot around Shanghai these days. and they followed the Chinese EV company playbook: if customers want these in bright yellow, pink or baby blue, then let's do it

Some automobile makers are too naïve or short-sighted, they underestimated the determination by the Chinese government, and tried to milk the ICE profits as much as possible. They really thought no one is able to make a viable profitable EV in the proposed time and the Chinese government will delay their rules. Then, here came the BYD and Tesla, and the rest is and/or will be history.

I know you were just having fun, but I am responding as if you were serious. As far as I know, a chip fabrication plant (fab) is worth nothing once it stops working. The actual building is a specialized design, the equipment inside cannot be repurposed and can only be sold as scrap metal, and the employees' skills are nearly useless at new fabs. So, as the fab ages and the yield goes down (often matching the reduction in demand), they will run it until there are no more customers. Last time I checked, there was at least one fab still making a 80386 variant chip - it is still being used as an embedded chip and they would have to redesign/recertify the entire device to change it. Maybe the Raytheon Patriot missiles each have a 80386 still.

Coal was running at 63 percent of the energy used to generate electricity in China in 2021. They are not going to reduce that much, nor do they intend to, as they are still opening coal mines. Under its COP 26 pledges, China has stopped building coal plants abroad, but it will keep adding new coal electricity plants in China until 2025. After that it may gradually reduce coal's role, but no firm pledges have been made on that. This isn't incompatible with switching rapidly to using more battery EVs in cities. Yes, the BEVs are ultimately mostly coal powered, but the air quality in cities is the key thing that people notice, and the BEVs are cleaner than the mix of vehicles they have now. India is the other big country still using lots of coal in electricity generation. It is also has a problem with city air pollution, so will also switch to electric vehicles once they get more economical. I think India's priority now is switching to renewables, especially solar, in electricity generation. The US comes next in coal use for electricity. Globally about a third of electricity is generated from coal. If you add natural gas in its various forms including LNG this goes up to well over a half - approaching 60 per cent, for these two fossils fuels. The natural gas share is still rising, so don't expect the fossil fuel share in electricity generation to fall much before 2030 - and with it CO2 emissions from power plants. This of course is the context in which electric vehicles should be seen. They can clean up air locally, but whether they help with CO2 emissions depends entirely on how the electricity being used to charge their batteries is generated. Australia's role in all this is as a major exporter of both LNG and coal. It does have plans to export "green" hydrogen produced from solar at some point in the future, but this may still be vaporware!

There will no doubt be a lot of consolidation in the industry in addition to bankruptcies. I think some of the larger OEMs will split off their EV manufacturing in the same way Ford has done in an attempt to let their ICE production fade away. I don’t think that will work. The US government will bail out GM (again). Not sure about Stellantis or Ford. Dealerships will fold en masse. There’s no way the legacy OEMs can compete with Tesla if they’re stuck with the dealership model. They’ll have to buy out their contracts. China’s a lost market for foreign OEMs. You’re right that China doesn’t need or want those competitors taking market share from their own automakers. It’s likely that many legacy OEMs will go bankrupt, but not without a fight.

A lot of storm over a cup of tea. The world has decided by 2030 to 2035 all legacy car with ICE would be phase out. China is ahead of others by going with EV so it is to be expected car manufacturers would switch to EV. Some legacy manufacturers may choose to terminate the production instead to setting up plants in China. So there will be closing down of some car dealership and car manufacturing. China has been a magnet for every car manufacturer to exploit the domestic market and many had a good run of profit for some years. China is just the first country showing the phase change.
