BREAK/FIX the Motorsports & Vehicle Enthusiast Variety Show

Jon Summers is the Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. On his show he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, motoring travel.

Jon recounts his recent trip to Mexico where he observed the proliferation of Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) and motorcycles. During his visit, he noted the dominance of Chinese brands like BYD, MG, and Vento, and their competitive pricing compared to traditional manufacturers like Nissan and Toyota. He discusses the implications of this market shift, citing specific experiences with BYD's durability and Vento's market presence. Jon also reflects on the broader impact of these emerging brands on established automakers and their potential future in global markets. ==================== 00:00 Introduction to Jon Summers 00:39 Trip to Mexico: Unexpected Automotive Discoveries 00:56 Chinese EVs in Mexico 02:16 BYD: The New Player in Town 03:37 Nissan vs. Chinese Automakers 06:48 MG and Other Chinese Brands 12:21 Motorcycles in Mexico 14:56 Vento: The Surprising Leader 19:17 The Future of the Automotive Industry 25:12 Conclusion and Sponsorship
