It was like that long before the trade war btw.. It's not due to the current tariff wars.
The tariffs become irrelevant, because unless you can manufacture the cars in or near China, they're out priced when they hit the market, it's the 7000 mile transport fee.

Most western companies that make cars.. are now making the cars they sell to China, in China which is now the biggest market, not the USA.
