Looks like the warnings about China's economy tanking were correct.

Tesla sales also falling. And EV sales in general across the board.
not sure why people think the same growth and increasing market share could be sustained year on year. People who wanted a EV would have got one already. The remaining just don’t really care what the drivetrain is, they just want best utility or amenity for the money.

Also, maybe they are running or not running incentives at any given time that may or may not include certain brands & models made by different mfgs?

when there's better cost/performance (charging/range, not speed
) ev's will take off.another possibility is even greater govt 'giveaways' aka incentives, aka, the govt spending/redistributing OUR money while claiming how magnanimous they are.

i think ev sales growth will be challenged UNTIL it's undeniable that they're cheaper to buy and own AND are convenient. obviously for MANY they're not considered convenient enough due to range concerns and recharging speed, although clearly that situation is changing for the better.

Incentives are being shifted to plug-in hybrids even if they have a tiny battery.
Feels to me like China and the U.S. are on a collision course when it comes to EVs only a matter of time before the likes of BYD are building cars in Mexico, and will try and build them in the United States. Of course the U.S. government will threaten import taxes if they do it China will retaliate. That never ends well.

I'm talking about excessive, retaliatory taxes a trade war. Tesla makes cars in China and sells them in other markets clearly China is not overtly trying to keep foreign companies out. Will the U.S. be as accommodating? Remains to be seen.
