Total car ownership in China sails past the 400 million mark, EV momentum unstoppable

Are you going to also spout dumb nonsense like "Oh, if there are no traffic jams 24/7 in Japan/Switzerland, then they aren't using their car for their primary transportation, which means it's basically a status symbol"? Cars are even more useless in Switzerland/Japan, and vanity is the major reason for owning cars there?

Jesus Christ.

Propaganda bots circling around to the other argument when the other argument is lost, and when they lose, they circle back to the other one.

"In Japan cars are a status symbol?"
Obviously yes.

"In Switzerland cars are a status symbol?"
Population density we have already been over this you are just too incompetent to hold more than 1 thought in your head at a time.

Thanks for outing yourself as a bot though.

Lol yeah, having a car in other countries is a status symbol without practical benefits, only in the US it's not. Other people who don't share the same "airtight logic" must be a bot.

Up your propaganda game.

Especially in narratives like the one you seem to be peddling right now.

It's not even remotely convincing.

Propaganda? I'm not even from China. I'm from Singapore where cars are indeed a status symbol because it's a small country well connected by public transport. But China? You think every corner of the country is connected by public transport? 400mil is huge to you but it's not even 1/3 of their population. It will continue to grow as their middle class grows.

I'm just amused by a narcissistic American who thinks he must be right because he don't understand other countries but thinks he has 'airtight logic'. Reminds me of your previous President.

Seems like most of these cars are simply being purchased as status symbols.

I can't see how most of them could be any use at all in the cities where most of the people of the country live.

The roads in China are not crowded. China's infrastructure is very good. Even in the fourth and fifth tier cities, most of the roads are no less than six lanes.

One thing China did right is building roads and highways before popularizing private cars

Local Mongols " Horse Racing" festival in Inner Mongolia, is this a joke?

China has the world best road and highway infrastructure, the traffic is not as bad as most countries even with 400 private cars.

I thought Jakarta will be on the list.

I can't imagine how people live in those cities.

Kinda a nightmare, hours on the street just to get to work and home.
