Dumping, in economics, is a form of predatory pricing, especially in the context of international trade. It occurs when manufacturers export a product to another country at a price below the normal price with an injuring effect. The objective of dumping is to increase market share in a foreign market by driving out competition and thereby create a monopoly situation where the exporter will be able to unilaterally DICTATE PRICE and quality of the product.

Um actually that's the coolest part about high hp EVs compared to gas cars. There's no need for special tires or prepped surfaces. Their traction control is just that good. One guy did a comparison and found that it was actually slower on radials because of the increased rolling resistance and weight compared to factory wheels and tires.

100hz tcs with an EV's torque, on AWD is cool but acting like it cant be done on a non-ev is retarded.
Also accel perf, from low spec tires, being the only metric to shine up is retarded. What about crash avoidance, panic braking, maneuvering, sports driving.

Vast majority of people put mediocre all seasons on whatever they own, I see stangs and challies and shit running stuff with the grip level of a Michelin Defender 2 all the time. I see EV owners prioritize long life, eco metrics tires above performance function.

Bringing up how TCS can make accel numbers look better is, again, retarded.

MacPherson struts have become the biggest midwit buzzword I've ever seen in the automotive world. You can make a car with them handle well enough to win races and a multilink car handle like shit. There's also no such thing as "maccas on all 4," they're explicitly a front-end suspension design.

Suspension isn't as simple as "it has this type so it's good." It's all down to geometry and tuning. There are cars with live axles in the rear that will run circles around anything you've ever driven on a road course. (I.e. every NASCAR road course car ever, along with plenty of vintage Trans Am, IMSA, etc. cars.) A setup that seems better in a vacuum can be worse in practice because it takes up space that you need for other components or because it's less durable/reliable.

Sorry for the rant, but as somebody who actually spent years working in a shop that specialized in race and performance suspensions and has won championships with MacPherson cars, among others, this shit really irritates me. Chink EVs are still shit but it's because they're pigfat, cheaply made, and their engineers don't know a thing about performance suspension/chassis design or setup because they have no motorsports heritage.
>>
>>28644886
People movers that can do a low 9 second quarter mile. Turns out not a lot of people really give much consideration to "how well does this car hold up in a 24 hour long endurance race performed by professional racers" when buying a new car. "how comfy is it to sit in" and "how fun is it when i push the go-go pedal" are a bit higher priorities.

A lot of people don't settle for "well enough", they need the best. besides coping for shit design with sticky tires is pathetic. McDonald's struts are the hallmark of a rental, usually accompanied by a plastic engine and an automatic trans.

here is the track times for SCCA solo at nationals. Tesla plaid doesnt even compete in Super Street. it competes in a class down A Street, and it took 21st behind a flock of corvettes and porsches and other real sports cars. 54th overall. nobody cares about your drag strip times because gas cars are still faster.
the reason why electric cars will never win is because they are too heavy.

you buy what wins, you dont buy what loses. despite what people say, EV's are too heavy and when they are really pushed to the limit of their capabilities they cannot take first in their class. you would be better off getting a porsche or a corvette. or even competeing in a lower class with muscle cars, BRZ's, Miatas or even shittier cars.
ultimately if racing is about taking first place. the tesla cannot do it. enough said. if i go racing i would reference the chart to see what wins in what class, thats not a tesla.
>>
tesla's make too much horsepower to be put in a lower class with muscle cars. but they are too heavy to be agile enough to get better track times. you have to have a lot of power to get momentum going. its ultimately the crux of all EV cars because the battery is so heavy they have to use extra metal to reinforce it. so its very unlikely that they will ever find a way to make it quicker and lighter because these 2 things are at ends when it comes to electric cars.
>>
more power = bigger battery. bigger battery = heavier car. heavier car = more metal. more metal means even heavier car. heavier car = L.

tesla's will never be real sports cars. real sports cars are low weight, high horsepower. power to weight is a key in racing. for this reason its very unlikely that electric cars will ever beat gas cars when the best is pitted up against the best.
mother of god, i hate EV fags. its a juiced up grocery getter. too fast to compete in lower classes, too heavy to win in its own.

It's going to be interesting in 10-20 years to see how ICE boomers cope when batteries are significantly lighter and better across the board. The only think ICE vehicles have going for them is that charging times are straight misery and batteries weigh a fuckton. Also for some reason every EV producer makes their cars look like turbo-NPC trash.

It's going to be really hard to argue about "soul" and shit when you get an all-electric coupe that can do 0-60 in 1.75s, lap the Nürburgring in 5-something, and charge 500 miles in 5 minutes.

The simple truth is this: It feels cool to zoom down a street with a roaring exhaust, or to downshift and blast backfires at some Karen-ass meddlesome HOA board member. EVs don't offer the fuck you factor, but they offer everything else.

it's always easy to make a cheaper alternative when you essentially copy all the development without any of the r&d costs.

Also, hp in electric cars doesn't mean much since the electric motor can hit any target number in it's operational range with the only limiting factor being battery capacity/range.

That's retarded, do you think tires magically gain more grip because of traction control? The maximum acceleration of a car is hard capped to the friction coefficient between the tires and the road surface, which will, inevitably, depend on the particular tires and the road surface you're on. All traction control does is limit the output to the wheels so that they don't exceed the friction coefficient and start spinning, but it doesn't magically make friction not matter anymore. Getting proper racing tires and being on a racing tarmac will make a difference regardless of whatever bullshit EV shills tell you.

Yeah I can say the same thing, they'll make ICE engines that go 0-60 in 1.4 seconds and lap the n ring in 4 minutes

Keep in mind EVs were mainly pushed by government subsidies which are now ending

EVs rot in dealer lots, no one buys them

Industries tried EVs to replace semis and forklifts etc, turns out they are way less efficient than ICE so they stopped the programs

The charging thing is real though. It already exists. Look up megawatt charging. 10-50%, or 250 miles, in 5 minutes. Although I don't personally think it's worth the effort. Diminishing returns and all that. A 800V car does the same thing in 10 minutes without all the extra faff.

American corporations don't participate in "actual" capitalism. They own politicians who push for legislation to benefit their business over International competition. Just look at GM and their ties to the US Congress.

This concept that only China plays foul in an industry absolutely wrecked with subsidies and government loans is misguided. However China's subsidies have ended up benefitting the actual Chinese consumer rather than their CEOs.
