BYD still has some work left to do then since the Volkswagen ID.Polo is 26 390 €. The ID.Polo is also considerably prettier than the Dolphin Surf, so it probably needs a bigger price cut to get customers.
Insane to think those are reasonable prices.
10 years ago, a new Renault Clio had a starting price under 14 000 €.
You just have to wait 2 years to get an ID.Polo :P
oh I didn't know about the ID.Polo, i was looking into the ID.3 neo life
The Dolphin sells for about €6700-€8900 ($7500-$10.000) in China.
They see how the EU allows EU car companies to gouge their citizens and figured "eh, might as well join in on it. Pure profit."
And further down the rung, the electric Twingo, Panda and such go toe for toe with the cheaper Chinese EVs.
