minus-square@ShortFuse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink17•edit-21 year agoWell, I feel misled. The graphic shows a Volvo as a Chinese manufactured vehicle. Sales of Chinese made EVs in Australia Tesla - 46,116 BYD - 12,438 MG - 5,928 Volvo - 3,949 They’re counting Tesla as a Chinese EV.
minus-square@ShortFuse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink7•edit-21 year agoIn China. But the majority of Teslas are manufactured are in China, and no one really considers Teslas “Chinese cars” or “Chinese EVs”.
minus-square@ForgotAboutDre@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink12•1 year agoSo manufactured in China like the article says.
minus-square@ShortFuse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•edit-21 year agoDoesn’t stop it from being misleading. It’s called “burying the lede”.
minus-square@Miaou@jlai.lulinkfedilink6•1 year agoIt’s misleading based on your arguably less important criteria, but OK

minus-square@ForgotAboutDre@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•1 year agoIn Australia they’re all manufactured in China. So it’s a Chinese car. Cars in high developed economies like Australia have until recently been mainly manufactured in highly developed economies like EU, Japan, US etc.

minus-square@inclementimmigrant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink8•1 year agoStill, the BYD figure is nothing to be scoffed at.
