Soaring electric truck sales deal new blow to diesel use in China

The article says that this rise is driven mainly by subsidies. I mean for a country like China which is the top importer of oil, it makes absolute sense to heavily subsidize Electric Vehicles.

China is also rapidly building its nuclear power plants. If the US was actually doing that, giving heavy EV subsidies in the US would have been a lot more easier.
