Japanese Engineers Tore Down BYD's $8,000 Car in US - What They Found Inside

In twenty twenty-three, a Japanese publisher bought a Chinese electric car, took it apart down to the last bolt, and sold what it found in a three-hundred-and-fifty-page manual for about sixty-three hundred dollars a copy. The buyers were engineers and parts makers in the Japanese auto industry, the people who taught the world how to build cars. A year later, seventy of them studied ninety thousand parts in a gymnasium. In Michigan, Americans took apart BYD’s eight-thousand-dollar hatchback. And Ford’s CEO called what his team found shocking. So what was inside? Everything in this video comes from published sources: Nikkei, the Associated Press, U-B-S, Ford's own CEO, and company price lists. Where something crosses from fact into my interpretation, I will tell you. ---------------------------- Copyright Disclaimer We do not fully own the material compiled in this video.
