Chinese EVS is probably why the world is driving more EV.(despite Tesla being a option a shit option)
I live in a Country where most EVS are made by Chinese companies lol.
Not just Chinese. There are very good Korean and Japanese options and European carmakers are catching up as well. Teslas are just dog shit cars with shitty build quality
At least in Canada I cannot find a Japanese Battery EV, seems like they're (almost) all Hybrids. I think Japan spent so many years trying to push Hydrogen, and they sabotaged their battery chances as a result.

Oh boy I hope its electric buses with monstrous saws that form their path through congestion by cutting personal vehicles in half.

BRT on a separate lane. Also nice I guess :-)
I wonder how a city decides between BRT and trams, if they are going to build specific lanes anyway. Guess BRT is cheaper to build?

Cheaper to build, and probably also significantly cheaper to change or expand routes if needs change in the future, I would think.

Cheaper to build but more expensive in the long run.

The Korean options seem good, though!

True, they were far behind but Toyota has / will release 5 new EVs this year, Lexus another 3 and Suzuki has a few as well.

Oh, I didn't know they had some coming down the pipe. That's great!

Yeah, and of course there’s a heap of European options but I don’t really know about the availability in Canada for those
