MKBHD just reviewed a Xiaomi SU7.
Don't hear it from me. Take it from a known Tesla fan.
And in the question 'Are "we" cooked?' who is "we?" More than 99% of US citizens would benefit from cheaper EVs. And the whole planet would be less "cooked" if we accelerate phasing out fossil fuels.

And in terms of "Doesn't have mind blowing features that US cars don't have..." That's true for the Xiaomi.
But BYD has a car that lets you press a button on the screen that will launch an integrated drone while you are driving. The drone will follow your car.
You're basically an aircraft carrier.

Do you need a drone that will follow your car? Do you need 1,500 horsepower? Do you need 25 speakers in your car?
I'm not sure that the answer to any of these questions is yes.
But if you take these features out, you can sell EVs for under $18K. That's the magic price point for mass adoption.
