#2When you do, you see that Tesla in China still scores way worse than Tesla in the US.
So, it’s more about the different countries and what passes for “quality” in those countries.

#4It’s not the same comparison. In the US, it’s complaints per 100 cars. In China, it’s complaints per 10,000 cars. You have to do math to make the conversion.

If the two Teslas are equal in quality, or the Shanghai-made ones would score worse than the Fremont-made cars if rated by US buyers, then the implication is that ~all cars sold in China are qualitatively worse than the worst sold in the US. Which sounds implausible too me, perhaps even a case of RAA.
