  1. Why on earth are the U.S. car companies trying to build vehicles that no one really wants? If not for government encouragement and imposition, the market would tell them its an economic debacle.

    1. More than 1.3 million EVs and Hybrid EVs were purchased in the first six months of 2024. The numbers are consistently increasing, proving that there is and always will be a growing market. We would be foolish to let China claim it.
