    You are correct, but that has happened with American brands (even cars) before

    At half the price of other EVs, I bet an entire new class of service stores, half mechanic shop, half third party parts, half mods, would spring into existence if these cars are allowed in the market

    Instead, we protect the horrible local brands

      Our tariffs aren’t there to protect local brands they protect every foreign brand in the US too which make up 2/3 of the market.
