I was scrolling through X last week, jaw dropped, as I saw the news: BYD, China’s EV juggernaut, slashed prices on 22 models, including a budget-busting 20% cut on their Seagull hatchback, now a steal at $7,750.

This isn’t just a sale—it’s a full-on price war, sparked by BYD and fanned by Tesla’s earlier cuts in 2023. It’s like watching carmakers duke it out in a Black Friday brawl, except the prize is your next ride.
