    And why is it so relatively cheap? Where did they cut corners? Are they spying on you like the cheap Chinese TVs? It can’t be just because it’s government subsidized.

      I would prefer no spying. But with the US being a fascist surveillance state run by greedy billionaires, American cars are no better. Either pick one from a functioning liberal country or focus on the tech. China is clearly ahead on tech.

      The motive isn’t to extract as much capital out of the customers as possible.

      They are spying yes,all the others are too which doesnt make it ok but that is why it is subsidised by the state.

      They cut corners on comfort and noise levels from my experience of similar brands
