They are a threat to sales. Biden signed a 100% tariff on Chinese EV's. Even at 100% some are still are cheaper than US EV's.

Ok, but Chinese EVs are barely even on the market in the US right now and are not going to influence prices given their limited volume. Prices are going down due to the factors listed on the article, not due to hypothetical competition

They can see it coming and be sure it is. Some people try to get ahead of a problem. Most just sit around in bewilderment until it arrives.

Whatever you're talking about right now, it has nothing to do with actual EV prices in the US today
