Are the raw materials that much cheaper in China? I hope there is more than $4k worth of materials in any vehicle I drive or how long can it last?

Raw steel cost should be less then a pound per kg

I would be highly surprised if the raw ingredients for any car would be more then 4k, but that's also not a very useful metric.. i guess a cpu Would be a few cents
