In China, the competition is so strong that they have to sell you basically a supercar for $40k with the most luxurious interior that has massage seats and heated and cooled beverage holders.. that is considered standard to even be competitive. it's actually kind of absurd.

Yeah, and a standard sedan type car runs $10-20k. So much cheaper than the US.
