I am surprised BYD didn't launch the Han in Europe considering tariffs made their lower priced cars less competitive.
Most "too good to be true" car prices are only available in China where EV competition is stiff. Elsewhere with much less choice of EVs you get charged much more, often more than twice for the same model sold in China.
It works :) Thanks

Eternity has not been working since lemmy 0.19 . I am not on LineageOS
There is already an effective 27.5% tariffs on cars made in China. They are still considering to raise it higher.
Considering I don't have any wired devices capable of above gigabit speeds this may not be a bad option. The openwrt based software looks like a plus as well.
Used ones are Cheap but mostly Gigabit as 2.5 Gigabit routers aren't mainstream enough for the 2nd hand market to be flooded with them.
After some research, it seems there is a huge mark up for consumer grade routers outside of China.
For example a Asus ax6000 router with dual 2.5Gb ports cost only cost only $110 in china while a similar version I can get locally cost $300. Also there seem to be a local forum thread discussing those routers from and perhaps I am beter served finding answers there.
Also I tried pfsense some time ago with only Gigabit NIC and eventually repurposed the machine as a hypervisor. Maybe I can go back to pfsense but considering I need to get a 2.5Gb network card and the power requirements required for a software router to route 2.5G internet I am not too keen.
That may not be an issue for most people if their own devices doesn't support 2.5G Ethernet. Else there is still the simba broadband which is still under trial. Anyway I hope the other ISP adjust their prices downwards to match the ~$20 plans.
If I am not mistaken. EVs from Volvo, polestar & lotus sold in the US are made in China. That makes it eligible for tariffs
My ISP will provide an Optical network terminal with a 2.5G port. I will still need a router. Also I am not from the US.
