Personally I don't want an ev that just bursts into flames.
You sound like my semi-racist MIL who thinks anything coming out of a china is inherently a cheap piece of shit and American made is guaranteed better quality and super safe. The quality of these EV's is comparable to anything american made, American car companies just don't want to lower their markups. There's a reason why the big three (Honda, Toyota, Ford) throw over $10 million a year at politicians via lobbying.
No american cars are dog shit too. Chinese evs go up in flames more than they are letting on. Google Chinese insider.
I've been recently watching the Just Rolled In YouTube channel. It seems like there's plenty of people who simply don't care if their car is a deathtrap.
