Well here I am currently watching the 2023 Guangzhou Autoshow on youtube and I am amazed at the quality of the evs at the show. I am also in awe how fast China is electrifying their auto fleet.
BYD surpassed Ford in total sales earlier this year and they only sold 500,000 car in 2019. BYD also said this: demolish the old legends
BYD, Xpeng, Nio, MG, Geely, GAC are all expanding rapidly into South America, Europe and South East Asia.
These companies are topping the sales charts in the South East Asian markets.

I’m kind of concerned for our current auto brands dragging their feet.
Dominate by 2030? No chance. Considering 2024 models are already out, it’d be at least 2025 at the earliest before some of these would be hitting the US - and in Mexico, where Chinese vehicles seem to be taking off, they still only represent something like 8% of the market after 3-4 years.
