The Kandi launch

If you (not myself) Have decide to get a Kandi let us know what you think about after 3 plus years of driving. Most China knockoff low budget, cheap material, cheap appeal, and unproven quality are based on the following premise of China dogma and doctrine.

Premise
China steals technologies using tongs, consulates, China national students in USA college ,universities and unwise business partnerships. Although the China calls this "cultural" exchange China nationals in the USA steal, spy, copy, and transfer what open societies do not protect. Once China has theft technology they build and then add minor improvements of "said" technology where possible. No major innovation has originated from memory from China . History perspective China year 1921 foundation day of CCP before that you had China technology of gunpowder, papermaking, and compass .Although some say China has modern innovation and technology .The reality is most of current day China is a mish mash of shared or intellectual property theft technologies.

Kandhi EV
The vehicle similar to a Fiat Smart and GM variants. The promo youtube post is brief on specifications and promo people say drink the Kool-aid.

Per Kandi website
K27 model
K23 model
Suggested prices $17,499 and $27,499 and federal tax credit of $7,500 can be applied.All orders are online only
Range 85-111 miles depending of driving behavior
top speed 70mph
7.5 hour charge time
China Kandi in China domestic market are urban primary driving vehicle and there is urban rental fleet in China.

Low quality, range concern, workmanship, online purchase only and no service centers .

Tesla , Nissan Leaf, and Fiat 500E would be comparison on value alone.

Will not purchase online a China CCP communist Kandi and export USA dollars

Boycott Kandi

Kandi EV Financial and Wiki

FYI
Please note most China companies and Kandi that trade on wall street and other public index do not provide transparent and audit financials unlike USA companies
The company financial books is not a open, historical, and transparent reflection whereas almost all USA domestic companies follow accounting standards.

See my above comment.

So how are you acquiring things that are demonstrated NOT built in china without an extensive and exhausting search for other country suppliers? I appreciate your position on the Kandi, but realisation that they are pervasive in everything you touch is appropriate. Probably half the silicon in your phone / computational equipment is chinese made.

The China CCP is pervasive(agreed) . Jimmy Carter open trade to China Clinton, Obama , and Angela Merkel made sure China CCP got most favored nation trade status in the WTO(Pathetic organization). China CCP has no shared values and the internal corruption both local and national is understood value. Wall street NBA, Apple, Google, Twitter, Youtube, Instagram, Amazon Disney have been pawns in China CCP subjugation of their business. Disney filmed(Mulan) in China Xingang province near a forced labor prison. When we celebrate Halloween , Thanksgiving, and Christmas all those products (Made in China) come from a 7-day forced quota forced labor facility.

So the backstory to how Nixon and Kissinger got in so well with the Chinese is interesting. I read a book called 'Red Star Rogue' by Kenneth Sewell, that poses an interesting theory. A lot is out there about Project Azorian, and the Soviet sub K-129. What isn't as well known is where exactly that sub sank, and how exactly it sank, and especially the reason the sub was where it was. See the Soviets were actually having a pretty good border conflict with China in the mid 60s. Sewell has evidence that shows the K-129 was taken over by a Soviet special ops group and had a mission to disguise the K-129 as a Chinese Golf submarine and actually launch a 3 megaton ICBM on Hawaii. Causing the US to enter into a war with China. What's 1/2 million people vaporized in the name of the Brezhnev doctrine. So the k-129 was a Golf 2 and had the ability to, and always did operate in a specific zone 500-700 miles from Hawaii. But the Chinese Golf 1 subs only had a ballistic missile range of 200 miles. So the k-129 was actually found in waters less than 200 miles from Oahu. There was also evidence it exploded on the surface, something a Golf 1 had to do to launch. The the damage that caused the sinking pointed to a internal explosion of an ICBMs rocket fuel. Sewell thinks either they messed up the failsafe codes, and that's what the failsafe does, is detonate the fuel, or the real soviet captain still on board was able to activate the failsafe to save hundreds of thousands of innocent lives at the sacrifice of himself and his crew. Now he also believes that the majority of the sub including the bodies of all the crew were recovered by Project Azorian, and that with the identity of the "extra" crew known, put together with the other clues, made it possible for Kissinger to present to Mao just how much Russia was their enemy too.

Keeping on topic the K-129 was a battery electric vehicle just with a big diesel generator onboard to recharge.
