The 13 year life of Chinese vehicles is a myth. When researching BYD's reliability, I found proofs of BYD taxis in China that have crossed 400,000~700,000 km on original batteries and they still had slightly above 80% SoH.
I am sure if you do some research, you will find similar cases for good Chinese brands like Geely, SAIC, GWM, Cherry, Changan, and many more. These companies are now operating globally and we have enough data to find its reliability.
Even the new companies (founded in the last decade) from China like Xpeng, Nio, Xiaomi have disrupted the automotive market. All I see in the global news is legacy automakers are in trouble wherever Chinese are entering.
Observing the global markets, even the blind can see the future of automotive world belongs to China. This is the major reason Europe and US have applied tariffs to slow them down to save their industry.
