If Americans had access to Chinese EVs and had more affordable EV options it would be better. Their range is great now days. They can get up to 350 range depending on the car now. Comparible to gas cars. I think local governments should install charging stations as well to recieve some of the profits and to keep it affordable / voted on instead of it all being privatized again as we KNOW ALL COMPANIES EVENTUALLY JACK UP COST no matter what the product. America never learns.
Yeah downtown Lemmy users think everyone should be on a bike. It’s not realistic.
The EV argument against Chinese vehicles is hilarious. Everything is already made in china. And the cars might spy on me? And the Americans won’t? I trust the Americans less than the Chinese at this point, I rather be spied by china
I think everyone should be on a bike, but I don’t blame people if they aren’t, as the infrastructure for it does not exist in a lot of places. As part of thinking that everyone should be on a bike, I also think that the infrastructure for that should be built. It’s a hell of a lot cheaper to build and maintain that car roads.

Yeah, we really need this in the US. Very few people here can use a bike as a primary mode of transportation.

They have them in Europe and Canada just approved Chinese EVs. America is being left behind and it’s gross. Open market my American ass. The lies.
