Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'd still buy a Toyota/Lexus over a similarly priced BYD just because of the reliability track record of Toyota

Similarly priced? Nah mate

You gotta pay x2 for a Toyota with half of BYD features

What features would those be and how is it that Chinese manufacturers can sell them at 1/4th the price of anyone else?

Rhymes with smunderpaid twerkers and flavory.

And massive subsidies for Chinese national brands.

I'm really curious about the features though because I've seen numerous comments here and other places about how Chinese EVs are so "advanced" and full of features but nobody ever seems to be able to name even one specific advancement or feature when asked.
