this is just classic EU, keeping their crusty fucking socialist factories afloat while most people cant afford an ev, even if they want one.

while i think it's important to not give all the jobs away to china (although a bit too late for that), these govs never think about making something or doing something more competitive

chinas basically subsidizing the whole thing on their end, why doesn't the eu take a hit and print up some more money to make a super affordable ev as well. they're going to print and fuck around anyway
