> China is VWs biggest market

Yes but for how long? China was very successful at baiting Tesla and raising their own EV industry. If anything it's proving that businesses can't rely on Chinese markets even without a trade war.

Tesla is failing because their products are falling behind every day.

Depends on the EU regulations. If they don't want successful EU companies, not for very long.

I think it's hard to say that Tesla products are at fault here when Tesla has been clearly setup to grow Chinese EV industry and now can't compete due to Chinese regulations, subsidies and a massive campaign to promote Chinese cars. Just tune in to tiktok - it's very blatant.

All I'm saying is that perception of Chinese EVs is very inflated compared to objective reality. There are plenty of opportunities left in the automobile market.
