A atualização anual da chamada "lista 1260H" alarga o escrutínio dos EUA a gigantes tecnológicos e industriais chineses não estatais que, em princípio, não teriam qualquer ligação ao setor da defesa. A medida surge menos de um mês após a cimeira de Trump em Pequim. A China prometeu retaliar.

A viral video racking up hundreds of thousands of views shows a BYD electric sedan performing a tank turn in an impossibly narrow space between barriers.

It’s a striking demonstration of what independent electric motors and smart torque vectoring can do in the real world — and a feature that US automakers have only promised.

If you’re from Pittsburgh, you may want to sit down for this one: global EV sales leader BYD claims the aluminum frame that underpins its new Yangwang U8L SUV passes a brutal, 12 ton lift test – despite weighing over 100 lbs. less than a comparable steel frame.

BYD says it will assume full financial liability for at-fault accidents that happen while its “God’s Eye” urban driving system is active in China — with no cap on the payout.

It’s a commitment Tesla has never made for “Full Self-Driving,” and it flips the industry’s standard liability model on its head.
