I live in Chile 🇨🇱 (South America 🌎), and i can guarantee you that my country has been flooded by Chinese cars in the last year. (Mostly Changan's, followed by BYD and finally Kia)
Plus, our government has made a deal with BYD so that they'll replace all fuel-based public transportation with EVs. 🔌⚡🚌 (Link [in Spanish] down below)
So yeah, there IS a mayor market for China's cheap vehicles (aka developing countries), and i bet that until most vehicles around the planet are EVs, China will be the mayor seller for a few years.
+100 comms... Jesus, those are some large ass threads you're reading.
While i do not (usually) scroll through threads as large as yours, i do own a much cheaper phone (Moto G8 Play), and my experience so far has been great.
Never played Baldur's Gate 😅
But i will give it a listen and maybe include it on a second playlist 😎💿🎵
