More chinese electric cars

Human Horizons HiPhi X Founders Edition 2021 review
Chinese start-up's radical EV was a blank-paper project, resulting in solutions to issues you didn’t know existed

Described as a 'shooting cross', the HiPhi X's cab-forward stance is recognisable from other upcoming luxury EVs, such as the Faraday Future FF91, and the proportions are equally substantial. The X is longer than even the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class, although it can't quite match the German limousine in terms of wheelbase.

Such a restriction will never happen in Europe. In such a case China would react reciprocally and the European (mainly German) auto industry is dead.
Huawei lost a big contract for 4G hardware on the London Underground because of high level fear/risk associated with using a Chinese network vendor.

TikTok faced a ban in the US last year because of fear/risk of spying.

Most EVs are highly digitally connected and have cameras for self driving. Chinese manufacturers won't have an open goal to success in the US or UK. The path of leat resistance for them is to setup EU/USA based subsidiaries that are locally run and without any vehicle/customer data relayed to servers in China.
 
Somehow photo from front end had dissapeared. In order to fix that:

Shorten the wheelbase and transform into a 2 door, replace the alloys with replica era steel rims (the standard factory oval-slotted type with chrome hubcaps or the EMPI-style steel sports rims), drop the two-tone scheme in favor of the era VW Bug uni-color paints...and I'd be all on board with this.

The Chinese graduate over 600k engineers per year, the US 70k, the maths is on their side. India graduates even more engineers, just over 1m, what they do with them all I have no idea!
 
You'd be surprised how many well established engineering and construction firms of the western world outsource engineering manhours to India or Pakistan.
Boeing for example did just that. Life is cheap after all.

I probably should have added a bit more to my comment, the Chinese are building Chinese branded products for Chinese companies, they are world leaders in telecoms, shipbuilding, heavy machinery, railways and strongly challenging in many others, Indian engineers are subcontracting to foreign companies, there aren't many world leading Indian companies building Indian branded products. You just have to visit both countries, the difference is stark.

I've been to India for work, one of the shipbuilding companies I visited all there engineers worked out of a tin shed, they sat 4 to a desk and shared a single computer between them, every 30 minutes they switched places. This is a big company, one of the largest shipbuilders in India.
