Hi John and Gary,
just to make a point that selling EVs like they do in China for the right price point will not work here in USA. Some past price point examples from the ICE cars like low cost Yugo, Fiat or Chevy Cavalier. Did they sell millions because of the price? Americans are individuals we do not want a car that fits all like the VW bug in Germany the “People’s car”. We all want something different at different prices and are willing to take on large car loans just to get it.
