So what would I get from China instead of a BMW M4 or Audi S5? That would be on par for craftsmanship, dynamics, safety, reliability, price. I'm quite curious.

For ICE? There is no Chinese competition, but Kia stinger and Lexus RC are direct competition.

In an EV world even the Hyundai Ioniq 5 can smoke the M4 or the S5. Take it for a test drive you will be shocked. For Chinese both BYD and Xiaomi have offerings in the space.

(Btw I own an RS5 and would never trade it for an soul-less ev, but there are very few of us who care)

BYD Han EV, Zeekr 001, NIO ET7, XPeng P7, BYD Seal
Those byds are really bad, just like the Xiaomi ones. They are falling apart and disturbing the public safety; one of the panels almost hit a passenger
