RE: New XPeng G6 2025 Review | The Best Electric SUV Coupe?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
XPeng and BYD and MG, etc. - they're all competing with each other in the UK now, and they can offer so much more for so much less that this will have the Legacy brands scrabbling to keep up. Mind you, it helps when they already have things like their own EV battery manufacturing plant like MG (SAIC) and BYD - and others. Did you know that BYD started out as a battery manufacturer in the mid '90's and made them for Nokia mobile phones?
What kind of EV are you thinking of, @steevc?

Now it's mostly just the two of us we could go for something smaller. The Mini is cute and may be enough. It seems most EVs have 200 mile range these days and we don't do many long drives. We will probably lease as things are changing rapidly.
BTW I read this article (needs you to register, but I read on dead tree). It tells how the Chinese invested in battery technology as they could not compete with conventional cars and now BYD is far bigger than Tesla. Seems Musk was caught out by their success.
