“The competitive reality is that the Chinese are the 700-pound gorilla in the EV industry,” Farley said in a recent appearance on The Verge‘s Decoder podcast. “There’s no real competition from Tesla, GM, or Ford with what we’ve seen from China. It is completely dominating the EV landscape globally and more and more outside of China.”
