BYD can skyrocket better than spaceX

So: Tesla sold 60 000 less cars, BYD 52 000 more. That's almost equal. But Europeans also bought 25% more EVs in that time.

I think Tesla and BYD buyers have relatively small overlap. Tesla has been branding as a rather luxurious car. The edge of Chinese EVs is that they are affordable. So the Tesla buyers probably switched to some other known brands, e.g., Mercedes EVs (noticed shift in Stockholm Taxi). And then the BYD users are mainly new to EVs, or wouldn't buy one more if not for the cheap option. But this is just my speculation.

I saw a BYD the other day and it looked rad. Spyware aside, I'd totally get one.

While I love Tesla sales cratering, I hope Europe is placing anti-dumping duties on BYD and Chinese EVs since they are flooding global markets with cheap EVs due to intentional overcapacity.
