Chinese EVs Poised to Hit U.S. Market: Are Tariffs Enough to Keep Them Out?

Doug McIntyre and David Callaway discuss a recent Motor Trend report showing that Chinese EVs could compete strongly in the U.S. market. Brands like BYD are producing EVs that are not only advanced but also much cheaper than American options. Although high tariffs currently protect U.S. manufacturers, there’s speculation that BYD might establish a plant in Mexico, using trade agreements to enter the U.S. market with minimal tariffs. While the outcome may depend on future U.S. administration policies, it underscores the global impact Chinese EVs could have on Western markets.
