How BYD undercuts Tesla around the world, by the numbers. (restofworld.org)

BYD is more affordable than Tesla in at least 10 places outside the West.

In each of the 10 markets where both Tesla and the Chinese carmaker BYD list prices online, BYD’s lowest-cost option is cheaper than that of Tesla.

While Tesla focuses its sales in North America and Europe, BYD is expanding in Latin America and Southeast Asia.

Yep - cheapest Atto 3 model in the UK is £37,695 on the road price, which is around $77,587 AUD. Even with dealer cuts (30%?) seems super expensive compared to rest of the world. Something is not adding up.

That's insane. I have one on order in Aus and test driving it was great. Apparently it's even cheaper in China so no idea how you're getting screwed over here. I would definitely look at other options at that price.
