    It is absolutely magnificent to see a electric truck full of sand driving through the street, here is a (sorry, verry bad quality) video of a BYD one I caught: https://youtube.com/shorts/B0akomAQgkM?si=B1JEkKrTk6w7q5Bq

    Well sure when you can skip all the safety standards they are cheap. These trucks would not be considered roadworthy in the USA or Europe.

      What makes you think/say they’ve skipped safety standards?

    Oh, look, it's another article about china dominating in electrification and reaping the rewards of intelligent investment.

      Seems like there is a lot of dislike of this comment but not a lot of discussion about. Is it not true that china is dominating here? Or that this is becoming the norm? Isn't the instant negative reaction to this comment the exact problem? Maybe if we decided to get better instead of get mad we would see articles about the west dominating more often.

      Inb4 Americans come in to patriotsplain to everyone about how this totally won't work because dinosaur juice is clearly better and the ICE is tradition.
