    The Volvo EX30 is based on a Geely platform, made in China, and does well in the EU (won several Car of the Year awards).

    MG (SAIC/Roewe) also has no trouble selling in the EU.

    Chinese manufacturers can make regulatory-conforming cars when the market demands it of them. If the market wants cheap and doesn’t demand safety, they can do that too.

      Then the cheap EV’s doesn’t matter if they are not legal.

      And the Volvo was not based on Geely. It was the other way around. They bought Volvo for this purpose exactly.

      But I hope they will make better EV’s for the world. EV’s are generally just better cars, and it’s a clear road to less noise and toxic pollution.
