China leading global electric vehicle production



The electric vehicle competition is fierce and China is emerging as an early leader, thanks in part to its control of the supply chain of raw materials for batteries. NBC News’ Janis Mackey Frayer takes us to the Shanghai International Auto Show to report on the country’s EV boom.

  1. I BOUGHT A BLENDER IT ONLY WORK FOR TWO WEEKS. NO MORE MADE IN CHINA CRAP FOR ME, CHINESE COMPANY WILL SELLL THOSE JUNNKY CARS THEN CLOSE THEIR DOOR. . ONE DAY YOU WILL HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR CHINESE CRAP CAR. THAT NOBODY CAN FIX IT

  2. Ah yes every one look up China fact chasers and you will know they are being paid by the CCP to do this as propaganda

  3. The fact that NBC is bringing up this report 3 months after the Shanghai auto show shows the US auto industry as a whole will never be able to compete with China's. Even Tesla is relying on Shanghai factory for more than half of its global output. Who else besides Tesla is going to survive the coming China auto onslaught?

  4. Pretty soon EV will become democracy in the state too! Only losers scare of competition!

  5. China's BYD will be investing $30 billion USD to build factories in India to take advantage of India's huge market.

  6. I am not a bit surprise at all!

  7. Calm down Americans, this is Chinese century

  8. Battery is against America's freedom and democracy value, in short, evil.

  9. China produces vehicles and leaves them out in a field to rot. Not green at all.

  10. "I am here to urge all members of Congress, both Republicans and Democrats, to join together in making China a normal trading partner of the United States." "Trade with China serves the economic interests of America." –Republican George W. Bush, May 17th 2000. "Passage of this legislation will mean a stronger American economy, as well as more opportunity for liberty and freedom in China." –Republican George W. Bush, May 25th 2000. China's entrance into the World Trade Organization and the subsequent US trade deficit with China has resulted in the continued loss of millions of US jobs, primarily in manufacturing.

  11. Serpentza: China is Throwing Way Feilds of Electric Cars – Letting them Rot!
    China insights: Warren Buffet cuts stake of China's BYD for the 10th time, why? Bad luck comes for China EV makers.
    China Observer China's EV industry collapse. 90% of EV Manufactures May Face Bankruptcy, 100 Brands May Disappear.

  12. We still have Tesla. Imagine if the chinese could sell EVs in the US? Prices will plummet with so much competition!

  13. LOL, leading manufacture in electric vehicles. must be the reason why thousands of them are built the abandoned in many large parking lots and fields in china. not every brand is reliable either.

  14. Makes sense the push for these things since our politicians are bought and paid for by China

  15. Corporate espionage at its finest

  16. search youtube for chinese electric cars on fire, they aren't a big threat due to their poor quality

  17. Good luck driving a Chinese EV… just look at all those Chinese made E-bike battery catching fire!

  18. The tariffs that Trump touted and still does tout, it just means more tax on US citizens

  19. 😂 America says it’s so free and has such a great economy that they have to put such tariffs on the competitors because they’re actually then anything the US has!

  20. Lol. I can't wait till all these batteries randomly catch fire and explode. Chinese engineering no thanks.

  21. Ban all Electric vehicles and use Gasoline instead?
