But they're not cheap after the tariffs. Yes, cheaper than German luxury cars, but not cheaper than comparable cars.

Yes. They are. Significantly.

Point me to a BYD vehicle that's cheap and its DIRECT competitor that costs significantly more.

They're pretty expensive if you consider the fact that the Germans know how to make a car, and the Chinese only know how to make a powertrain and infotainment. And they still cost about as much as the Germans for similar segment vehicles, so really you're even getting less for your money.

If you're comparing them to those brands then you're obviously just intentionally cherry picking vehicles that are not comparable and you know it.
