alt Hacker NewsChinese EV makers have a few interesting technologies especially wrt. batteries but they're still very far from catching up to the frontier in a general sense. From that narrow POV Musk was absolutely correct.

EV =/= software-defined vehicle, and Chinese EVs are doing well in both areas

What the hell are you talking about? They have batteries that charge 0-80% in 5 minutes even at -30F. More full featured EVs at half the price with similar acceleration rates and higher top speeds. Total ranges are comparable or better. What is this frontier you speak of? I think the only thing US companies are far ahead on is self driving.
What is the "frontier" in EVs that Chinese automakers are yet to achieve? And what automaker is at this so called frontier?
