Has there been any quality analysis on these Chinese vehicles? I'm leary on sticking my family in one if we're going to get stranded or worse, electrocuted.
Depends which brand. The BYD cars get 5 star in Europe and here in New Zealand. They are very safe. But then again most properly made BEVs are far safer than A gas car these days.
That being said there are some Chinese brands in their internal market in which safety is something that happens to someone else from what I have heard.
Got to do your research when buying as you always should.
