Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

It would be better for consumers that Volkswagen & other car companies price their products closer to what it is sold for in China. The ID.3 can be had for USD $9,400 there.
I wonder how much it'd cost to buy a car there and drive it home by ferry to Europe.
You'd still have to pay for customs, insurance and a license plate, at least in my country. Customs is 10% of the car's worth plus transport cost, so it would still be cheaper but not by much anymore
Who's going to volunteer for the slave labor and heavy subsidies it takes to reach that price though?
