An important factor contributing to the unexpected success of these Chinese brands, is that the European Union’s tariffs targeted Chinese EV’s, but left hybrid vehicles alone. So this was the pivot from Chinese carmakers. It was not from the EU to other countries, but from electric-only to hybrid vehicles. Two thirds of the cars sold by Chinese companies in Europe were hybrids, and even fuel-burning engines. Those sales were up 50% year over year, and more are coming.
LOL yeah.
But seriously though, ads are deigned so that companies find more customers. Who cares what the customers want, need or buy. As long as the company gets the money, it’s ad money well spent.
