It isn't just Chinese EVs there are Korean brands on the road e.g. Jaewoo.

I'm in the UK and the only new Fords I see are these huge F250/F350 which make my 4x4 (which is relatively small compared to a modern 4x4) look tiny.

You managed to write the name wrong, Jaecoo not Jaewoo, and it's chinese not korean. On top of that it's a throwaway account.

Pretty sure they confused Daewoo with Jaecoo. But as far as I know Daewoo does not exist anymore.

I confused Jae-woo (a Korean name) with Jaecoo. I think I must have mis-spelled the name when googling them after seeing the Dealership near me. However I do remember Daewoo, I don't think there many left on UK roads.

GM bought Daewoo. The factories still exist but what used to be Daewoo are sold under the Chevrolet brand nowadays.

I mixed these brands up. Thanks for the correction.

They (Jaecoo) opened a dealership 20 minutes from where I am.
