I absolutely hate Chinese car manufacturers, but they made it clear that western car makers don't want to create affordable EVs.

Well R&D costs a ton of money

The reason why Chinese ones are so cheap is that the government is subsidizing them

That and the fact that a lot of auto makers in the US only want to make luxury EVs.
