Thanks Matt, this has been really enlightening, the fact that the subsidy was phased out as the price went down was a perfect outcome, that was really clever fiscal management on behalf of the government. Ps, I'm in australia and VERY INTERESTED in buying a Baojun Cloud.
That is true. It’s interesting to see how their strategy has worked quite well for getting people to go out and switch to EVs. I think many people around the world are like you and would love to be able to grab one of those inexpensive Chinese EVs. Is that Baojun coming down under anytime soon?
Very insightful. I'm envious but the Chinese deserve everything they get. They worked hard for all these decades to get this point. The average westerner has little to no idea just how much ahead China is in the EV space alone. Thanks for the vid.
hi there, i was curious , we in indonesia , byd and aion start to sell over , which brand you think are better in terms of technology , aftersales over there in china with this 2 brand
Many of these Chinese EV companies have bad translations or just very funny sounding names. Even BYD is a strange name - Build Your Dreams. I can’t think of other car companies that have a name that is a phrase. In Chinese I’m not sure if 比亚迪 even has a real direct translation from Chinese or they just used the BYD in Build Your Dreams and gave it Chinese characters to match the sounds, but it is weird in my opinion from an English speaking person’s perspective. It is a marketing ploy, but it sort of falls flat in my opinion. I much prefer when companies just use their native names - I think Xiaopeng is a good name because it is a real Chinese name and doesn’t feel pretentious at all. People look at Xiaopeng and they know it is a Chinese brand with a real Chinese name and feeling.
@@xiaoandmatt BYD is actually a rude word...that's funny, cause when Wang found it, it was just a factory which products batteries and pcb, so the name doesn't matter. And, he tried many names, and all of them are registed, so he was very angry and just cursed the situation..and he successfully registed. However, when they decide to make cars...it's too late XD. Build your dream is just a name they found not so rude.

@@lonewolf200985 Probably BYD.
Honestly, Xuanyi is a bad translation. It has another name "sylphy" whitch is usually called in other countries.
