Happy to return to @theverge.com with a 2-part look at Chinese automaker Geely + what it faces before it can sell cars in the U.S.
I hadn't driven any Chinese car since 2020, which might as well have been the 1990s given that industry's speed. Part I is my drive reports of 3 brands w/3 powertrains.
why tho?

In this story, I attempt to find out. Also, I talk to several car reviewers who say that Chinese companies are paying some influencers under the table for positive coverage.

The result is a deluge of video content praising the country's auto industry and lamenting the fact that we can't buy these cars here. But what is DCar? And why are they promoting Chinese EVs to US creators so aggressively?

Over the past year or so, a Chinese company called DCar Studio has been reaching out to US-based car reviewers and influencers to set them with Chinese EVs. www.theverge.com/transportati...

What would be the New Yorkiest response to this bullshit?
17.10.2025 16:30 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I don't disagree with you! I just feel its more impactful to organize large groups of people around boycotts and political action than shame individual people about their consumer decisions.
