And yet despite having production in the US (no chicken tax), they are way behind GM, Ford, and Ram. They sell hardly any by comparison.

BYD can capture the US EV car market share easily
The car market in the US is dying. That’s why Tesla has such high marketshare in sedans. Everyone else discontinued their sedans, and even Honda and Toyota are selling more SUVs that cars.
As to other vehicles, I doubt BYD can capture marketshare “easily.” Toyota and Nissan thought the same about the truck market, and they each have an underutilized truck assembly plant as a testament to that arrogance. It took Toyota and Honda decades to get where they are today in the US.
And this is exactly why Cash for Clunkers was a failure in every way except for giving a massive handout to the auto industry. Studies showed it had no impact on emissions, or even new sales. All it did was pull ahead existing sales by a few months to a few years.
