I’ve talked this over with several representatives of Chinese carmakers present here in Europe. They have confirmed the cars we get here are not the same as in China, and it’s not only tariffs that are driving up their prices—they typically feature a raft of improvements.

From your link, so yeah both of you is right and wrong at the same time. Also there’s like tons of brand from china and all of them aren’t made in equal quality, so of course some are great, some are actually death trap, and some are lemon thats been left in car graveyard to rot.
