What makes cars from companies like Dacia or BYD appealing compared to Tesla, especially in Europe?

To a customer used to Skodas, Renaults and VWs, they look very attractive.

BYD are Chinese EVs. What makes them attractive is that they are fully featured cars at very attractive prices. Currently their base line model costs 300 000 SEK and is expected to hit 250 000 SEK by autumn. A Tesla Model Y costs 556 000 SEK in baseline configuration.

Dacias are cheap and made in Romania. For my USian followers, think Yugo.

I listened to Kamala Harris speech she gave in North Carolina. I support 100% of what she said. I am more and more in favor of a Kamala Harris presidency if Biden becomes unable to be our president! Do you find yourself supporting Kamala Harris now?
