I've never actually seen any Chinese EV cars in the States unless you count like, Volvo. (BYDs and MGs are getting quite popular in Australia though), so this tariff looks to be more political posturing than anything else.

BYD electric busses are made right outside Los Angeles, so they wouldn't be subjected to the tariff at all, but that's a whole other can of worms.
