Enlarge / The Chinese automaker BYD has every other electric vehicle maker worried. (credit: John Keeble/Getty Images) The United States has won an important battle in its war to keep low-cost Chinese electric vehicles from American car buyers. Today, Reuters reports that the Mexican federal government has responded to pressure from the US and will not offer incentives to Chinese automakers, like BYD, that are looking to establish North American manufacturing operations. BYD last met with Mexican officials in January, according to Reuters, where it learned that Chinese automakers would not be offered tax breaks or cheap land to build factories. Until now, Mexico has offered foreign automakers generous subsidies that have made the country a cheap place to build cars.
