Extra brownie points if you have PC Optimum points.
It's double extra brownie points if you're filling up at a Mobil 1 station.

7 cents a litre back if you have a PC financial MasterCard

Not bad for a nammer car brand. Hopefully they'll bring some much needed competition to the EV market in Vancouver

Seriously, never even heard of this brand in the past 3-4 years and boom, they come to market with sales location across Canada ... what happened there? Where is Nio and the other one XPENG?

not sure how they can beat BYD to market (probably cuz the US and Canada go out of their way to actively restrict chinese car imports due to protectionist policies of domestic car manufacturing)

As of 2021, BYD was the fourth largest plug-in electric vehicle (BEV and PHEV) company and fourth largest BEV company in the world, with 9.1% and 7% global market share respectively in 2021.[6] The company has mainly based its sales in Mainland China, but is undertaking rapid expansion into the global market, with sales hitting over 100,000 per month in March 2022, and is expecting to sell between 1.5 million to 2 million plug-in EVs in 2022, around 3 to 4 times the volume compared to 2021.[7] In June 2022, BYD Auto announced that it had sold about 641,000 EVs in the first half of 2022, overtaking Tesla to become the largest EV manufacturer in the world.[8] In 2022, it became the first carmaker in the world to sell a million NEV's, a term used in the Chinese market to describe most electric vehicles.[9]

This BYD Han doesnt even look that bad

I saw a clip somewhere (can't find it now) with a Vinfast with terrible build quality. Trunk gaskets with glue in only some places, trim pieces loose, etc. Caveat Emptor I think.

I find the Chinese-market EVs quite fascinating and some of their designs look better than what the Germans are doing.

I enjoy going through Wheelsboy videos on Youtube when I want to catch up on the latest China-domestic EVs - there seems to be a ton of activity and experimentation between manufacturers and models there. Feels much more exciting than what the legacy brands are pumping out...

The Chinese EV market is cutthroat when it comes to pricing and tech. They do it so cheaply and modern it puts Tesla to shame that's why they had to slash the prices eventually anyways.

I don't believe the Chinese EV cars are going to ever come because they will destroy the monopoly and competition in the NA market. Plus privacy concerns etc (which is probably their front and also one reason) but the main one is competition.

I don't think this is necessarily true.

Volvo offers a vehicle (S90 long wheel base sedan if I recall correctly) which is sold in North America but is manufactured in China. Yes, I acknowledge the fact that Volvo is not a Chinese company but if a manufacturer was so inclined to sell something in North America, they will get the consulting required to meet North American safety standards should they believe a market is warranted.

i mean they can if they wanted to, but they'll never the chinese automakers in. Wayy too cheap and like baoTurbo says, it'll utterly decimate the domestic market.
