We only have the perspective as observers outside of China, so I would caution how we interpret this article.
However, it may be possible that this COULD be the Corolla for the Chinese market. They do have a lot of EV manufacturers (300+ I believe?).
State-side (or even worldwide)? It takes some more convincing. And the article doesn't explicitly say it would be the next Corolla killer for the US market..
