The heavy subsidy by the Chinese government is the reason they would dominate though. The tariffs won’t ever be lifted unless they stop manipulating the prices to be lower than domestic competitors…
They would dominate because they make a good product that isn’t more expensive than it has to be. US car companies have discontinued most affordable options to try and force people to only buy larger, higher end vehicles that most people have no use for. Now they’re mad that international companies are willing to sell the products they refuse to.
Allowing your local industries to be dominate is common sense. As much as china is smart to subsidize theirs so heavily, the united states isn’t wrong to tariff them
The official reason for tariffs is government subsidy AFAIK, but in reality the moment they lower the tariffs, US and EU automobile industry is done.

Yes, usa car companies are bitches. But it is laughable that you think the reason it isn’t more expensive has nothing to do with being subsidized
The reason it is vastly less expensive is due to being subsidized. You don’t seem to understand what is being said and can be backed by facts.

And not the 3.2 billion that the government dumped into them…
I’ve heard they are good cars but the price is manipulated.
so… how much did does the us government give its auto industry?
They gave us auto companies 81 billion between 2008 and 2014, and continue to subsidize the industry to this day.
pot meet kettle
They aren’t manipulating, shits just cheaper to make over there. So they can make more profit and still charge less.
That is verifiably false…

Read your own source maybe?
The source is also a German investigation? So it may not even be entirely factual either dude…
I’d trust Germany over China any day and twice on Sunday…
Okay, and factually their labor and parts are cheap. Your own source even says that this a major factor.
And you do realize every country subsidizes auto makers yeah? How much did the USA and EU countries do in same time frame…?
