Despite lower price tags, Chinese EVs often have more powerful batteries and more advanced technology. The competition among hundreds of Chinese EV makers has spurred rapid innovation. Even Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who made a surprise visit to Beijing last week, has said that without trade barriers Chinese EV makers would "demolish" their competitors. Chinese EVs tend to be smaller, cheaper and more accessible to the masses — BYD's Seagull, a small all-electric hatchback, starts at less than $10,000. It would take time to set up a sales and distribution network, Fields said, and Chinese EV makers could face a perception issue among American consumers.

Read previewJapanese and Korean carmakers cracked the US market long ago — but don't expect Chinese EV seller BYD to repeat that feat. Advertisement"It'd be very difficult for a Chinese EV maker to enter the US market," Seth Goldstein, an equity strategist at Morningstar, told Business Insider. The bill, a key part of US President Joe Biden's economic agenda, offers tax credits worth up to $7,500 for EV makers, excluding any "Foreign Entity of Concern." BYD isn't the only company turning its back on the US EV market. Given that EV sales growth is stalling in US, it's perhaps little wonder companies like BYD are not too bothered.

BYD, the world's top-selling EV seller, has launched a cheaper version of its Yuan Plus car. Rivals such as Xpeng and Tesla have also initiated price drops and incentives to entice buyersIt comes as EV sales have dropped in China. The price cut, which comes amid an accelerating EV price war and slowing sales in the world's biggest car market, was first reported by Reuters. As well as cornering the affordable EV market, it's also dabbling in the other end of the market with a $233,000 electric supercar. As a result, Shenzhen-based BYD is "not planning to come to the US," BYD Americas CEO Stella Li told Yahoo Finance last week.

[1/3] Executive Vice President of BYD and the President of BYD Americas, Stella Li poses for a picture during an interview with Reuters in Sao Paulo, Brazil November 16, 2022. REUTERS/Alberto Alerigi Jr.SAO PAULO, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Chinese automaker BYD Co Ltd (002594.SZ) will start selling two new electric vehicle models in Brazil this month, betting on favorable political and environmental developments in Latin America's largest vehicle market, the company said. They will be imported until new factories to make them in the northeastern state of Bahia start operations. BYD expects that 10% of all vehicle sales in Brazil will be electric and hybrid models by 2025, compared to the current 2.4%, and the EV market share could jump to 30% by 2030. Li pointed to the tax burden as one of the main factors behind the high prices of electric and hybrid vehicles in Brazil compared to other markets.
