Would the Chinese EVs even meet our safety standards?

Almost certainly, because our safety standards are garbage, because we force ourselves to be in lockstep with NHTSA as to not make trade and travel difficult with the US

That's my concern as well. Seeing what happened with the cheap hoverboards and ebikes makes me wary of being too lenient on these.

You should also worry about if Chinese EVs meet reasonable labor standards. Which they don't.

They meet EU standards.
