      BYD makes cars for longer than Tesla as far as I can read, if they were a total failure it’d be known by now, so if Sixt says the lifetime cost estimates for byd are better than for Tesla maybe just Believe them. Cars can exist and you can gather data on them without the cars being sold in the US.

          They aren’t selling to you, they are rental companies. They are making decisions based on entirely different criteria and priorities than a private owner. But I’m sure your 5 minute googling is better than their combined several decades of experience running their business.
