Goddamn. Wish we could get BYD in the US, maybe it would finally get our domestic automakers off their fuckin asses and encourage them to make affordable vehicles / literally anything other than full-size SUVs and mall crawlers (luxury pickup trucks)
I thought I had read somewhere that Canada was going to allow like 50k chinese EVs to be sold each year starting this year or something along those lines

…which is exactly why you can’t have 'em!
I’ve seen a dozen or so BYDs on Phoenix streets the past couple years.
It’s probably possible to import from
Canada and/orMexico, though I imagine registering and insuring them is a hassle.Edit: Turns out they’re not available in Canada yet
None in Canada….yet.

Hasn’t happened yet.
Canada buys 2 million cars a year, so 50K is fuck all.
really?!? Pics or it didn’t happen. :-)
People driving up from Mexico.
still need pics… I understand they are not permitted in US.
I mean I’ll import one from Canada if that’s all it takes
You will pay a stupid amount of tariffs to own a car with no parts or service support.
Yeah but there is a chance even with the tariffs its more affordable.
