In China, the best selling car is actually not a Tesla. Itâs this: the Chevy Sonic-sized Geely Xingyuan (EX2), which starts just under $10,000. I drove it around for a few mins, and it wasnât hard to understand just why Geely sold nearly 500,000 units last year.

The Geely EX2, or Xingyuan, outsells everything Tesla and BYD make. In five minutes with it, you understand why.
