@FabioCapela 6 ай бұрын
@@lucbloom The issue with this is that Europe can only block Chinese imports on its own shores; it has no power to block Chinese imports in third-party countries. Thus, Europe would still have to compete with China elsewhere in the world, but without the power to impose protectionist measures against them. To put it another way, if the EU's protectionist measures shelters its auto industry enough that it doesn't feel the pressing need to match and surpass the Chinese auto industry on EVs, it will be ceding the global EV market to China in an attempt to protect its local market. Protectionist measures against China's auto industry would also likely trigger a tit-for-tat response from China, locking EU automakers out of the very large and profitable Chinese car market; for comparison, the Chinese car market is roughly the size of the EU and US car markets added together. Losing the Chinese market, and being outcompeted in the rest of the world, would already be catastrophic for European automakers and the EU economy. What Europe needs is an effective industrial policy with big investments in developing and improving EV tech together with an even tighter schedule for replacing all ICE sales with EVs. If Europe doesn't do that, it will likely be driven out of most of the global market by cheaper (and potentially even better) Chinese EVs. And time is running out for doing this. Of course, Europe also has one heck of a disadvantage in that energy prices in Europe have spiked because of the lagging transition to renewables coupled with it losing access to cheap Russia natural gas, whereas energy prices in China are falling due to it having access to the cheapest photovoltaic panels, wind turbines, and batteries in the world and it installing more solar per year than the rest of the world added together. If Europe can't bring down its energy costs then deindustrialization will happen in all energy-intensive industries regardless of whatever else Europe tries.

Since China's automobile factories are newly built, they have a better degree of automation than those in Germany. They are even lights-out factories, so labor costs have no decisive impact on prices. The reason why Chinese EVs are cheaper is because the industrial chain is complete and more efficient. For the same Tesla factory, Chinese factories are better than American factories in terms of quality and output.

One significant point you neglected in your video is that when China allowed Tesla to set up manufacturing there, Tesla raised the quality of Chinese suppliers to meet their specifications and this in turn flowed into Chinese manufacturers. It is no accident their quality and tech improved after Tesla set up in Shanghai. Also as you said a lot of media just compare raw sales numbers between BYD and Tesla but miss the real story, which is these companies taking market share from legacy auto. Tesla and BYD only really compete directly with the Seal v Model 3 and they are different enough that buyers can choose the style they prefer.

I expect by 2030 both CATL and BYD to have factories around the world building battery packs for almost every major automaker, with battery packs that use much newer chemistry than today's lithium-ion batteries.

Nope l, disagree, i am from Egypt, always loved cars since i was 3 yro old. My first car was an alfa 156, then a BMW E39 then an F10. And i want to switch to electric (for acceleration and low center of gravity not economical reasons) and i am a huge tesla fan and i have money yet if i import one i will have absolutely no after sale service. Meanwhile Chinese car companies are setting up shop here left and right and there are dozens of new EV models in the market with after sale service with a wide price range especially in the last 12 months. As for European Cars the price points are just too much for what they are offering now. The G60 530i sells here for $110,000 which is twice what the Nio Et7 sells here for. + the G60 is the first 5 series i didn’t get excited about, it didn’t do as big of a jump as previous models. Which made me thinking to go for something like a Nio or BYD, which i wouldn’t have done 3 years ago. I think Chinese carmakers picked the right time to aggressively expand in time when American car makers are focusing inward and euro car makers are lazy.

Plus, look at the European car manufacturers who are lagging behind its American and Asian competitors, but only in quality, because price remains ridiculously high. If European leaders are dumb enough to outsource almost everything to Asia, they should face the consequences. And if we face production of almost everything being transferred to China, due to production cost, so be it also cars. There is no reason for us to pay less for everyday product, but not for cars, which are a serious expense... Competition is the way to make thing better and cheaper.

Incidentally, the LFP chemistry that BYD uses in its cheaper batteries is much less prone to catching fire than regular Lithium batteries, and the Sodium chemistry that is poised to take over the lower priced segment is even safer. Heck, the contents of the Sodium battery will likely be fireproof enough you could douse fires with it.

BYD Dolphin became the best selling EV here in Brazil since it started selling here. The same is happening in many places around the world, wherever the Chinese - and, in particular, BYD, as the largest Chinese car maker - sets shop in a country without strong local car makers, they not only displace most EV sales from traditional auto-makers, they also force the traditional automakers to cut their prices (some competing EVs dropped their prices by more than 20% here in Brazil when BYD started selling the Dolphin) and cause the EV market to grow faster (because, you know, lower prices). Chinese car makers can grow their global reach, at the expense of traditional car makers, even if they are locked out of the EU and the US. Also, EV sales in China are still growing strongly. Plugin vehicles are as of last November (the last month for which data is available) 42% of all new car sales, of which 27% are pure EVs and 15% are plugin hybrids. In fact, more than half of all EVs sold in the world are sold inside China - which allows the largest Chinese car makers to reach economies of scale in EVs, just from sales in their home market, that outside China only Tesla can match.

Sure, but “production starting 2025” in the Muskian calendar translates to sometime around 2040 or so.

BYD EVs have better dollar-for-dollar value, better designs, comparable performance with better ride quality. I've tried Model 3 and Model Y, both rides are harsh asF, and interiors are very plasticky. Most people are buying Tesla because of Elon Musk (a sort of personification of Tony Stark), and the name "Tesla"; not really because they're great EVs. Plus their "minimalist" design is really just Woke Miennial nonsense that most people aren't fans of.

Although I welcome more competition in the EV market, I will never in my life buy a Chinese car. I have driven in one for 2 years, and it was the most shit car I have ever driven in my life.

you just need to ask your dealer to import something more expensive from China. BYD U8 can even drive on the river. no matter which Ev you buy. its battery is still from China. even it is Tesla. you have no choice to avoid China. sorry dude. just like drones. you could only choose among 'which' part of China.

American Autos are always subsidized by the US gov. Boeing and Airbus got so much government subsidies as well. So it's no big deal that BYD or any rising Chinese industries get subsidized as well.

It’s all well to emphasise “…subsidised by the state…”, but what country does not subsidise Tesla? My friend just bought a Tesla, tax free, so explain to me how that differs, given the value of each Tesla Is more, so the avoided tax is huge.
@darrens3 5 ай бұрын
Every single country subsidises their domestic car markets. Be it factory subsidies, logistics, loans etc. anyone that tells you otherwise is not being honest. It's the only way to get large scale uptake and offset massive startup costs and eliminate risk.

Other than the price factor, BYD is available in many many more countries worldwide than Tesla. End of the day, BYD doesn't have to make better cars than Tesla to dominate, they just have to make better cars that all the legacy automakers

You mean cheaper not better because BYD can only sell cars in 3rd world countries, nobody in advanced economies is buying those cars

Wrong. the BYD "Blade" battery can be shot by a nail straight through the battery without setting off a chain reaction fire. Tesla's earlier batteries are the ones catching fire

BYD's 'EV' sales figures are PHEV + EV. Tesla does not operate with petrol hybrids. BYD's EV only vehicle sales are still far less than Tesla's. Even after 10 years and heavy subsidies, this is the situation.

i think why byd becomes a hot headline is exactly because their pure EV sales has surpassed Tesla in the last quarter. you should read the news carefully. if phev is counted, BYD passed tesla at a much earlier date.
