I see a lot of Mach-Es around.

Another stupid looking crossover/small SUV with a horse on the grill does not equal sport sedan

It's a baby step away from stupidly oversized pickups. Gotta start somewhere.

You sell A LOT more small SUVs.

No, but at least it's not an insanely over sized pickup.

Is Xiaomi financing cars manufacturing with money made through cell phones sells up till March this year? Or they financing it with pre-orders and/or gov grants and/or private investment?

[–] Badland9085@lemm.ee 7 points 4 days ago

Idk about pre-orders but I’d imagine it’s a combo of many things, from Xiaomi already having the finances, to tax breaks and subsidies from the CCP, and subsidies on the domestic consumer side to encourage adoption to further stabilize the industry, which further encourages investments.
