Article is full of speculation.
This is really exciting. Chinese tech is infinitely better than American.

In Australia, Chinese EVs cost about 15% to 20% more than in China. For example, the Zeekr 7x is about 15% more expensive in Australia than in China. Australia is getting Chinese EVs for a very good price outside of China.
But Australia has no tariffs on Chinese EVs and our tariff is at 6.5%. Plus, the shipping costs to Australia is different than to Canada. Having said that, the BYD Atto 1 in Australia sells for about 26K AUD for drive away (that is on road costs are factored in already) and that’s about 24K CAD.
49K for the yearly quota is a very small number. Because of this quota, my guess is that it might be just mainly BYD EVs that get shipped to Canada, because services have to be setup, as well as the supply chain for spare parts. So I doubt Zeekr, Xpeng, or Xiaomi would come to Canada for that reason. Not that BYD cars are bad, they are pretty decent, but a lot of Australians also really like the Zeekr 7x. And some XPeng models are also doing decent in Australia.
If this actually happened, in like a decade our auto industry would be basically in a stranglehold by China.
i don’t think people understand what theyre wishing for.
Good answering the questions, assholes.
That’s cool, I was looking at the BYD EVs and they seem pretty decent.
How does it work for the safety certifications? If they weren’t sold here does that mean they need to pass our safety standards first, how long would this take?
Or would they be an “import” for now and the certification is on the buyer? So if you were to buy one it would get sent over but do you take it to a mechanic to get certified like the interprovincial inspection?
What dealers will be selling them?
This is the same as it was in 2022. So it will be like then.
Canadians frothing at the mouth for their slave wage, zero environmental, no human rights, communist dictatorship produced cars.
Tesla also manufactures EVs in China. It may start selling electric cars made in China.
BYD uses GB/T in China, and CCS2 in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
NACS is by far the best in Canada and USA but we also have a few sometimes functional CCS1 locations.
Maybe BYD will invest in NACS for Canada in preparation for the eventual policy change in the larger USA market.
So are we gonna check the EVs for backdoors, kill switches and surveillance tools? Or do we just assume everything is good to go?
Sorry I don’t trust our governments to make decisions that won’t fuck us later on. They have consistently proven themselves to be incompetent
All the spyware inside. Good job. We don’t need China! They are not good. But the liberals are going to destroy the country. Why not, have Chinese junk
Whatever it takes to have EV Chargers on every street corner like Tim Hortons
NOT SOON ENOUGH
MORE THAN YOU WANT TO PAY
EV inventory is already piling up in Canada because everyone that wants an EV already has one.
This is basically a nothing burger…
The used ones will be a steal.
They could start with Geely cars and use existing Volvo dealerships to distribute them, since they practically have the same owners.
Geely’s are great. I’d totally get one if we could get a plant here. We loved our rental Hybrid Geely that we drove in Costa Rica
What is their servicability? Are the batteries .. okay? Where are they being sold. Is there a Warranty.
