China’s EV brands like NIO and BYD are currently beating Tesla, says Shanghai-based business analyst  Shaun Rein at CNBC. While China’s automotive industry is pushing out new models and innovations, Tesla looks old-fashioned with a model that has not changed over the past six, seven years, he adds.

Business analyst Shanghai Rein hits out at the NEV taxes the US has implemented and the EU is planning to start too. China has dealt with domestic pollution as asked by the rest of the world and developed its electric car industry, and now gets hit, he argues. While tensions between China and the EU are growing, they will not be as back at the US-China trade war, he expects, as China still needs investments from Europe.

Tesla is losing its China market in the competition with its Chinese competitor. It might lose the rest of the world unless foreign protectionism saves the American car, says Shanghai-based business analyst Shaun Rein at CNBC. Nobody can beat China when it comes to price wars, he adds, and Chinese manufacturers will dominate the market in five to ten years, he adds.

"Build Your Dreams" in BYD - Helen Wang

Warren Buffett visited this week China's electric car maker BYD in Shenzhen, where he invested 230 million US dollar to buy ten percent of the company. BYD stands for "Build Your Dream", recalls Helen Wang on her weblog, one of many dreams in China.
Helen Wang:

It does not take much research to discover that BYD are the initials of the Chinese charactersBi Ya Di, which does not mean anything but sounds foreign or Western. Many Chinese companies use Western-sounding names to make their companies or product brands sound modern, or to imply their businesses have Western connections.

Despite some nationalistic tendencies among Chinese youths, most of China’s upwardly mobile middle class consumers favor Western brands because of their quality and reputation. A recent article in Harvard Business Review reveals that only 45 percent of Chinese consumers prefer local brands, down from 57 percent three years before.
