What makes cars from companies like Dacia or BYD appealing compared to Tesla, especially in Europe?

To a customer used to Skodas, Renaults and VWs, they look very attractive.

BYD are Chinese EVs. What makes them attractive is that they are fully featured cars at very attractive prices. Currently their base line model costs 300 000 SEK and is expected to hit 250 000 SEK by autumn. A Tesla Model Y costs 556 000 SEK in baseline configuration.

Dacias are cheap and made in Romania. For my USian followers, think Yugo.

If James Bond is meant to be the best secret agent in the world, how come all the bad guys in the World seem to know who he is?
