> Ford’s CEO said that if Chinese EVs are allowed into USA it will destroy the US automakers
I'm a strong advocate for giving Chinese EVs an import quota per manufacturer (with a 1.5mm-unit annual cap on total Chinese EV imports, downgradable to 1mm in a recession, representing about 10% of demand).
This gives American consumers–and designers–access to and a taste for what the competition is doing. But it preserves a moat for our own producers.
So no free market. Consumers have to subsidise crap companies.
