AFAIK you can’t get BYD Atto3 in USA or any other ordinary BYD car, because USA won’t allow competition

BYD has yet to submit vehicles for FMVS certification. At least as far as passenger vehicles go.

We do have BYD commercial vehicles. Mostly buses, including the largest order for buses- in LA’s transit system… which, to be clear would make it eligible to sell carbon credits from CA’s carbon regulation…

and how many has BYD accrued and sold? they’re available to BYD every bit as much as Tesla.

Musk is a nazis, and he profits every second from Tesla. but that doesn’t make BYD the good guys.

I’d be pissed if you dumped that shit into my home, too. I’d not blame Poseidon on bit.

I think it’s just generational bullshit. we see kids being stupid and forget we were stupid kids.

A bit more than 3 billion, a fair amount of it from state and local sources. Also, much of not exclusive to Tesla. (though in practice much of it was, simply because for the longest time was the only real EV manufacturer.

On the other hand, BYD received a bit less than 4 billion in subsidies that were exclusive to BYD.

The US EV subsidies weren’t about increasing competitiveness on foreign markets, but rather to increase adoption of EV’s domestically. That is untrue of BYD’s subsidies.

just a friendly reminder that BYD is heavily subsidized by the Chinese government specifically to provide this edge in competitiveness.

i dunno… but I think maybe we should do a Boston Tea Party 2: Boston Tesla boogaloo.

Pretty sure every generation was dumber than the previous generations- if you asked said previous generations.

Not just buying.

Even if you had yours from the salute, or whatever, he’s still using your driving data to train their self driving softwares.

They’re still selling your data to whoever, too.
