I remember Daewoo. The situation with Chinese EV's is polar opposites. Daewoo bought the presses for old GM models and produced cars that had less technology and were less refined than what was currently on the market. Chinese EV's are 1 or 2 generations ahead of other cars (1 generation from the west and 2 generations from America). They have sleek designs, are packed with technology and have a massive degree of vertical integration. This translates to customer satisfaction. Customers love their Chinese EV's, they did not love their Daewoo's. Being new to the market it is taking time to build supply chains for spare parts, but it's getting there. Pointing to declining market share is disingenuous. The share of Chinese EV's is expected to continue growing significantly in 2026 in the UK. I have some experience of them. In my household we currently have 3 EV's with another on order. Historically, I have or have had 2 German EV's (Porsche & Mercedes) and 5 Chinese EV's (BYD, MG, AION). In my experience the Chinese EV's are superior in integration, value for money and reliability.
