I've seen a dozen or so BYDs on Phoenix streets the past couple years.
It's probably possible to import from ~~Canada and/or~~ Mexico, though I imagine registering and insuring them is a hassle.
Edit: Turns out they're not available in Canada yet
None in Canada….yet.
I thought I had read somewhere that Canada was going to allow like 50k chinese EVs to be sold each year starting this year or something along those lines
Hasn't happened yet.
Canada buys 2 million cars a year, so 50K is fuck all.
really?!? Pics or it didn't happen. :-)
People driving up from Mexico.
still need pics... I understand they are not permitted in US.
