In a recent interview with Jim Farley that was referenced in this thread:
https://www.f150lightningforum.com/...g-on-chinese-car-companies.21993/#post-430512

He stated he had been driving a Chinese car he had flown over to Michigan for 6 months and didn't want to give it back. Business Insider states this car was:

List price in China for $30,600 US. Has charge time of 15 minutes for 350-510 km depending on model, adjustable air suspension, emphasis on safety with steel & aluminum body, made by a phone company so software is great.

Apparently this is the Apple Car that was never built. Xiaomi is a leading phone provider in China; and Farley called this car the "industry juggernaut".

Sure, and with legacy costs and US labor costs, that 30k turns into 45+ here. There is a reason there is a high tariff on Chinese EVs
