      I think I read that the US is considering tariffs or something to basically raise the cost of these cars for US consumers.

        There is already an effective 27.5% tariffs on cars made in China. They are still considering to raise it higher.

          Well I do t live in the US anymore and there are Chinese cars where I live. Additionally electric cars are just starting to hit the roads here, so hopefully, when my wife and o get a car, we can get an electric one.

      US I assume? We do get their buses and Semis. Have for years. So maybe we’ll get cars too? I won’t hold my breath though. I think we’ll count ourselves lucky if we get Nissans made in China once that plant opens.
