More efficient manufacturing, falling battery costs and intense competition are lowering sticker prices for battery-powered models to within striking distance of gasoline cars.

    Good, they should be far cheaper than gasoline cars. America is losing to China when it comes to EVs, and many other things.

      America is losing to China

      China is the largest car market in the world. Can you image how fucked we would all be if Chinese bureaucrats were as fossil fuel pilled as the assholes running DC?

      America isn’t losing to China. America is losing to climate change.

          Yeah I mean china is a shithole country but for some reason there is a narrative on Lemmy that it is this great place while in reality it barely holds together as this silver taped weird capitalistic corrupted monster

          There is a reason Chinese gov is so shy about Taiwan and all the happenings Russia vs eu because they know damn well they are holding stability barely together and one wrong move would plunge it into chaos. They can’t afford ANY conflict. It all barely functions as it is due to aggressive capitalism and corruption

            I know, their personal space station, Tiengong, is still only a third of the size of the one we share with other countries. The poor thing can barely manage a trade surplus of 230 billion with the US. And look who they count on for innovation in green energy… china, of all countries!
