    I have had my Chinese tractor since 2013 and love it.
    I imported it direct from China 30 hP 3 cyl deisel 4wd 5 way bucket, backhoe, 6 foot slasher ,extra hydraulics, rollover protection, all for 14k inc taxes and delivery.
    I have had 2 hydraulic hoses burst and one starter motor go faulty that’s all and I have now over 400 hrs on it.
    Its not a lovel but they are are all almost the same..
    I could not have done what I have done on my 3 acre property without it!

    It's surprising that you have not already been saturated with Chinese tractors along with everything else. It won't be long until you cannot buy anything made anywhere other than China. The CCP will make good use of your money.

    Driving a cheap Chinese car now. 45,000 and only issue is its a short range EV I drive at high speed (speed limit) and batteries are not able to do what they allege

    Why not? IF it works for you I mean. Price competition is an economic joy for consumers. The difference between most Euro, American, Japanese and now Chinese cars is narrow or really not a quality issue for some but not all apparently. Its probably made with Iron ore from Western Australia The trade war types are not an benefit for most of us.

    By all accounts the WEF is trying to discourage farming in your part of the world. Perhaps this is an opening shot.

    If it did do the stated range it would probably be the only one in the world to do so
    I would so the only way to get the stated range would be to put the car up on blocks and drive it without the heater on, radio on etc

    I've had my Chinese tractor for 15 years and am more than happy with it. 45hp Perkins (or bloody good copy), 4wd with 4 in 1 bucket and 6' flail on the back. No more than fair wear and tear costs and keep it serviced to the book, more or less.
