Your comment makes me wonder if you read the article at all. Several of your concerns were addressed therein.
One a more general note, even accepting your arguments about subsidies and production conditions doesn't overcome the fact that a lot of the vehicles depicted here are just better designed and more interesting-looking than western (and Japanese) offerings.
Yeah people conveniently ignores US directly waterhoses their auto manufactures with subsidies and bail out money ontop of consumer tax credits to drive consumption. More in aggregate than the few years PRC have been focusing on EV. Different is PRC subsidies focused on trying to find actual winners who increases efficieny and brings costs down, instead of senators trying to keep their voter base happy. Or lame excuse that PRC products made with dirty coal vs that sweet clean US LNG (unproven with evidence to contrary). TLDR US decades of unfair US subsidies with USD money printer still can't compete against a few years of PRC subsidies. I wonder if these folks would accept a PRC plant built in US on JV model like they did in PRC, chances are no, because deep down they know PRC is simply just better at volume manufacturing than US.
