Paris Motor Show opens during a brewing EV trade war between the EU and China
Associated Press
PARIS (AP) — Auto manufacturers competing to persuade drivers to go electric are rolling out cheaper, more tech-rich models at the Paris Motor Show. They are targeting everyone from luxury clients to students yet to receive their driving licenses. Chinese manufacturers are attending in force. That’s despite European Union threats to punitively tax imports of their electric vehicles. Long-established European manufacturers are fighting back with new efforts to win consumers who have balked at high-priced EVs.
