    Subsidies or no subsidies the petrol Volkswagen Taos / Tharu XR cost around $11k in China [1] while 2.5x more in the US [2]

    Tesla was once the most subsidised automaker in China [3]

    The US is also trying to block Chinese battery companies from operating locally [4]

    Also companies like BYD prices its cars multiple times what it sold for locally and are making a huge profit margin from cars sold overseas in Europe.[5]
