Question 9

Can Americans buy the Geely Battleship 700 in the USA?

Accepted Answer

No US launch has been announced. A federal connected-vehicle rule already bars Chinese-owned automakers from selling connected vehicles in America, and Congress is weighing a broader ban, so the Geely Battleship 700's US prospects look unlikely.
