Most of the Teslas sold around the world, not the US, are made in China.

As it looks now (in Europe); the stigma associated with China is very strong and the brands that succeed likely will be western (at least in name) but made in China.

Such as volvo. The "ownership" is kind of a weird thing ... for my interests I think it's where was it mostly designed and tested.

GM is involved with Wuling for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAIC-GM-Wuling but I think we call this Chinese, right? Transnational industrial capitalism is weird like that.

Not if they increase tariffs beyond the measly 10%. Which they should.
