BONUS: How China Engineered A Bloodbath Of Deliberate Overcapacity
25 Sep 2025
China's electric vehicle price war represents the calculated culmination of a decade-long state industrial policy that has now reached its inevitable—and perhaps intended—climax. Since 2009, Beijing has channeled over $230 billion into EV incentives, subsidies, and industrial support, creating what appears to be overcapacity but was actually a deliberate strategy to forge global champions through domestic combat. The result is a market hosting over 130 brands competing in what Volkswagen's China chief describes as a sector that has "lost all reason". Today we’ll discuss: Chronic Overcapacity and Unsustainable Competition Deep Financial Stress Across the Industry Global Repercussions and Political Backlash A reminder our bonus shows are exclusively for our Patreon supporters.
