yes, because EVs are cheaper to operate than combustion cars. US auto makers are obsessed with creating EVs the size of tanks, hence the absurd prices. The Chinese auto makers are selling what people want to buy.

It's funny to me that you think car manufacturers are either not doing any market research or are completely ignoring it.

US car manufacturers care only about profits. Is market research the reason why US automakers sell "SUVs" instead of practical station wagons?
