If the dealership sells a 50k car they can get 6.5k-21k more money than if they sell a 10k car.
They want to sell you the most expensive car they can
So even if they could sell you the “cheap” Chinese EVs they would make less profit
This is just one reason. Sales margin is another. When you’re a Ford dealership and get special treatment from Ford you have higher profit margins. If you just flip a Chinese EV with no special treatment you have lower margins.
If there was a solid 10k car available less people would buy the 50k car (average cost of a new car today)
Inexpensive cars on the US market is not good for dealerships in anyway
dealerships are too scummy and a little racist to POC potential buyers to be allowed to exist anyways, i dont think anyone would lose any sleep if they were to disappear suddenly.
