I figure to live in and understand it you really have to speak the language at the level of competency you have. It’s only then you can dig out these gems of ‘real life’ - that’s my option’s limited to staying put in the UK or hopping over to France - which had been perennially tempting until Brexit killed that. surprised my surname is so unpopular in China - Dr Lee.
Love this deep dive on the BYD D1 and Mr. Le's insights on China's EV ecosystem! The part about charging infrastructure needing government backing to remove investment risk really resonates--I saw similiar dynamics play out with public transit projects where private capital waited for policy certainty. It's wild how much the taxi/rideshare sector has become a real-world laboratory for testing new vehicle designs that would never emerge from traditional auto manufacturers lol.
This was fun. This would be my perfect urban vehicle in Chicago...small, great utility, great range, cheap...and unobtainable.... :-(
Per the question "Do you want to go back to the US?".... Why would you if your interest lay in advancing new energy tech? Personally, I have no desire to go back for lots of reasons.
I enjoyed this, thank you. "The battery industry is very 卷" will be echoing around my head all day, probably with horrible mental mispronounciation.
