    They’re probably trying to make a push into the US market. I agree the number of posts about them over the last week or two has been ridiculous but they’re probably spamming and astroturfing the shit out of reddit which the bot is picking up on.

      I’d be surprised if they really try to push the BYD brand in the US. I think Geely is probably taking the right approach in using brands with varying degrees of establishment (Volvo, Lotus, Polestar).

        They are currently dumping their cars in the UK market and I think Parliament is considering increasing their tariffs. If they try and enter the US, best believe they will tax the shit out of them.
