@@defendingthestrawman7103 it is not really the same: "Gigantic heaps, supposedly filled with unsold brand-new cars, rusting away by the thousands. Especially during the 2007 automotive crisis, several photos of vast car storage areas became a symbol of the industry's decline. The story quickly spread - yet it was nothing more than an urban legend! The fact that new cars are parked in large quantities at ports, test tracks, and other locations is not due to a crisis or overproduction, but solely because new vehicles need to be stored somewhere temporarily before being delivered or shipped."
If you pause the video at 5:12, next to his left shoulder it is easy to see that the bikes are photoshopped.. Either that or they have paper thin wheels with some tread issues.
And to think all they have to do is melt all those frames down and use the steel some other item that they could pretend to sell more of. At least they would be a bit more environmentally conscious with their scams.

The only thing that surprised me about the abandoned cars is that the local police, in need of quick revenue, didn't send people out to ticket every one of them for illegal parking.
Haha! Reminds me of a Sergio Aragones, small print joke in MAD Magazine. There are these trucks that carry the new vehicles from the manufacturing site to the dealers. Well, one of them is parked illegally and the police gives a ticket not only to the truck, but to every brand new car that is on that truck! :-)
funny you say this about the Chinese when these are the things we do here also. before you look there you should see what your country is becoming now.... also think on it, we made china this way.... so much european dominance that these people are paranoid, but they do not know that they are pons, no different than korea, vietnam, philipines, they are doing exactly what we want them and need them to do and their efforts will go to waste, it will be a tragedy, but it will go this course... should of not let the allies win, communism win, and the british point of view become the worlds, because eventually you will see where we are going to end up....that crazy german dude was right, just he was a pon also :0
Every democrat needs to see this to show what scam electric cars are. Our power grid can't even handle brown outs with less than 1% EV cars. Now you want government to control it ? THE most UNRELIABLE company, ever ? Government employees can't be fired, and they don't care about YOU.
And all it would take... is just for their government to step in, and sell these bikes/cars at affordable prices to the public. Not even in the Soviet Russia, has it ever been done this way. This is truly horrendous and despicable. Chinese government should be ashamed for allowing this to happen, when a solution is so plain, obvious and simple.

Is it though? Sounds a lot like western spun propaganda when not everything is compared properly against each other, which works best when mixed in with some actual facts (like the bikes and EVs). Recently; "China biggest carbon emission" when data from what I'd consider a far less biased statistical site shows US (and Canada, and Australia, and several others) ranking far higher if you account for "per capita". And in this one; it's only China doing something bad for mining or utilizing child/slave labor, when western corporations are *MORE* than happy to exploit this for as long as they can despite being fully aware of it. Yes I agree, China bad, China sucks, Communism sucks, blablabla... But so do we, and that is never reflected upon! Africa is headed for humanitarian catastrophes ahead, and it's our fault, *ALL* of us, not limited to China and their exploitative methods.
A real news organisation wouldn't be able to put this video out because he's also wrong. Look further down, most of those cars are not new, they're over 12 years old.
@@Ankit-pb8mg nothing would surprise me anymore, even if you're joking, you could be spot on. I wish people in our Congress weren't so chummy with the CCP
@JonySmith-bb4gx not all the materials are Chinese. Some of it is. And that's for the supply chain to be good. Plus the american company supervises every step of the supply line to ensure that the job is well done and not junk like most of Chinese made stuff. So no, it's an American device.
Thank you for your continued exposure of how corrupt China truly is! It is #2 heading to the bottom quickly. Their collective approach to business has been shown as a massive failure. Keep up the great work.
China's imports and more importantly, exports have taken a massive hit and are still sinking. Their economy is on life support and the CCP will make Japan's "Lost Decade" look like a weekend at the beach. Tofu projects (BRI/mainland) will not save it any longer. Chinese citizens should run as fast as possible for the exits.
One note. It's most likely the batteries are LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) as they are the main battery of CATL and BYD, easy to mass produce and don't use the conflict minerals like NCA or other cobalt based chemistry. What's messed up is those batteries (god I hope they were stripped out before being parked) could be repacked into containers and literally power villages upon villages for more than 20 years. That is the main tragedy!
The lithium is still very precious. So much that recycling lithium batteries will be like a "gold rush". So in the west, old bad lithium batteries are hunted down as a resource, in China the fresh good batteries are thrown out to rot!
I wouldn't worry too much, as soon as people know that it's worth something, they will go and get the batteries or metals from these cars and re sell it. The old people living in my flat always check the garbage and take plastic bottles and cardboard that they resell. Will be the same with these cars I believe, as long as one dude finds out how to make money with it.
@@andreasgiannopoulos1204 There aren't too many chinese vehicles being sold in India though. But yeah, could be true. Brands use shortcuts in these countries to keep costs down.
I first saw photos of the bike graveyards on an exhibition in Moscow in 2018. At first, I couldn't believe this is real, I thought it was Photoshop. Then I saw a video and more and more photos on the exhibition and I realised it's true. It broke my heart. It was beyond my understanding. The next day I couldn't throw away my trash without feeling guilty 😭 that's actually how I got interested in ecology, recycling and etc
Western women will literally be guilt-tripped with the tiniest bit of propaganda into doing anything 🤣🤣🤣 Lost in the sauce. Go find God, get married, have a kid--you need more purpose in your life

Nightmare is an understatement really. It's probably just gonna take ONE car catching fire to set off rest of them. The flames are going to be hot enough to jump that river and that whole town/city is gonna be toast.
Great video. I've been to China a half dozen times on extended business trips where I had time to travel and sightsee, and every time I come back and tell my friends and family and co-workers the stories of the insanities that I've seen there, and people hardly believe me. Superhighways with no cars on them. Massive residential building complexes that would dwarf the burroughs of New York - rotting and unfinished and empty. Huge industrial complexes and warehouses - abandoned. The amount of money spent in China on unused and unfinished rotting infrastructure boggles the mind. You have to go there and see it to believe it. The bicycles and electric cars in this video are like a tiny pebble in a landfill compared to the other abandoned infrastructure. And despite what some in the comments are saying about it being privately owned - it's not true! The money shell game in China starts with the CCP, printing renminbi, loaning it out to party aligned "investors" who use the money to attract more investors, build a bunch of shit like this, skim profits along the way, then abandon it all. There's no system there for dealing with it. There's no timely or authoritative bankruptcy court to sell off the assets and recoup money for investors. The cars aren't sitting on land owned by a holding company that owns the land and vehicles, or that leases the land to store them. The assets literally belong to no one. The state is too corrupt and dysfunctional to acquire the assets and sell them off as we would do in the USA. The shell game is like sending crypto to a burn address: print money, loan it, acquire investors, spend the money on infrastructure (while skimming profits), then the infrastructure becomes 0x0000 and rots.
Some of the cars in that field of Kandis (the ones with the shield logo) are quite old. The k10c is based off of the smart car knockoff made by the Huoyon Electrombile Corp, which started production around 2006-2008. They were built using chasis made for kids toys not able to go over 10mph and used fiberglass bodies built by scaling up an imported model of a first generation smart car. Basically, if you got in any kind of accident you were screwed. They actually sold some here under the Kandi, Flybo, and Wildfire brands, but thank God they were speed limited to 25mph. Because of their age and cheap production they used lead acid batteries, which while more recyclable and less combustible than Li-ion, which is used in New EVs, it is my understanding that lead acid is more detrimental to the environment if not dealt with properly. Also, you recall how I said they sold some here? That ultimately never panned out because the cars were total crap, and now there are some lots here in America full of abandoned Chinese EVs.
EVs are a Ponzi scam in themselves. there's no doubt about it. They'll never replace the thermic and hybrid cars like the ones we use today. At best it's a dead end technology and the western governments are pushing them down our throats to comply with the WEF agenda (since they were trained by the WEF themselves) to eventually sell off their country to the next economic power that be.
No one makes a living ripping these batteries out and reselling them? Like that's so much money in parts... tires wheels, seats, literally everything. So wasteful
I lived in Shanghai in 2016 when the shared bicycle craze took off. As someone who is experienced in manufacturing and inventory control, I could see that this scheme would never work. Without even considering the absurdly low prices, the problem of inventory management and maintenance is massive. At IBM in San Jose, we would lose valuable stuff on our own campus! How much easier to lose bicycles across all of Shanghai or other Chinese cities. Within 5 seconds I could see that this scheme was doomed to failure and waste. Why couldn't the Chinese government see the most obvious thing?
@@fs5775 Per Thomas Sowell, it's called "vision". Unconstrained vision refers to Pan-Marxist's unrealistic solutions. Obviously CCP has never left the Pan-Marxist's campus. Constrained vision refers to practical solutions.
absolutely surreal. the discarded bikes and cars also don't show the massive amount of resources, energy and time that went into producing those goods in the first place. the true environmental cost to create and then discard is staggering. it's beyond infuriating. it's really really sad.
Would be a great idea if there were infinite resources and we shot the trash at the sun and were all 100 percent good jobs without the child labor and stuff like that

how incredibly wasteful. Some will say "who cares if they go to waste? they are vehicles with poor build quality anyway" but just the amount of resources spent, and pollution generated manufacturing those vehicles. Not for people to use but to line their pockets with investment money. Polluting the planet for money, It's evil.
This is why "going green" and stopping "climate change" is just delusions of grandeur. Because no matter how "green" and "eco friendly" western countries get you have China and India sabotaging it all by being the biggest polluters on the damn planet.
I had a friend (he has since passed away), that was a CEO of an environmental company. The Chinese industries would order pallets of smoke stack scrubbing equipment. He told me after visiting several coal plants that all they do is put the scrubbers out in a nearby field to rot.

This is reminiscent, to me, of the acres and acres of used wind turbine blades in Iowa. Their useful lifetime is over. They've been replaced by new blades. But landfills won't take them. And they are not recyclable. The part of the "green" energy paradigm that most choose to ignore.
But didn't you watch the video? In the West, everyone knows about these shortcomings and as a result, heads frequently roll. Right there in Iowa, I am sure.
It's always more complicated than people think. I can imagine most landfills are simply not equipped and don't have enough room to take them, more like can't than won't.

It’s not even remotely close to being the same thing. One is a fascist genocidal nation state with a population of over 1.5 billion people destroying our planet faster than at any other point in world history, and the other is a civil dispute between two companies wherein neither side wants to eat more costs than it has to. I mean, I get why the mountains of abandoned new cars reminded you of that anecdote, but if that’s your only takeaway, then you’ve clearly missed his point 🤷🏽♀️
Because at the heart of it all is unbridled greed and fraud. They know if they put the stock for sale or use it will just lessen the price/create abundance in the market. So they just sit on it. It's like this "chip shortage" thats been going on for 3 years. There isn't, someone somewhere has a WARHOUSES full of them. It's all artificial, all of it, the inflation, the shortages, the lies. These cars in video likely have some design flaw that's too costly to fix and eating the loss of just disassembling them is a NO GO. So they just disable them. I hope someone goes there and just starts stealing it all. You could make a killing in one night and be unironically robin hood.

This video is BS. Take a closer look, he is showing gasoline cars. And majority of the cars are not BYD. Totally fabricated reporting. Question is what else is fabricated on this channel.
China's record EV sales also comprised huge numbers of inexpensive tiny low speed vehicles. Some cities have now banned this type of slow and unsafe car.
Baizuo who don't understand the real situation in China just like to smear and spread rumors subjectively, just like this self-media youtuber.

Your so-called low-speed unsafe EVs are not considered road vehicles in Chinese regulations.Understand?PS, I am a new energy vehicle engineer working for a Chinese company, Hanks.
Their own people don’t want the crappy bikes , or the ride share program would have been a success. As for knowing the truth about the situation in China we can only speculate, the state media and local governments control what the people know and have no tolerance for speaking lie’s against the government.
@@donarmstrong2182 The craziest part about the ghost cities is that the government displaced the population of these regions, they took their lands, and destroyed their homes, then built a useless city that is uninhabited and desolated
This also happens with food. When there is to much production of e.g. tomatos or cucumbers, they are trashed rather than put on the market to keep the prices up. Also due to subsidising food prices.
Yeah the difference is that when you let food rot in a field it is good for the soil. Food waste can be used to grow more food. It's not the same as letting batteries, steel, vinyl, and rubber rot in a field. We could do better about making sure food ends up in the hands of people who could eat it but what you speak about isn't nearly as aggregious as throwing away a bunch of brand new cars just to claim they have been sold.
@@1155727 In the European Union, in many countries, most product unsold goes to "food banks." In some of the countries, it is literally illegal to throw away many foods.
I live in China. I am amazed by the number of new electric car brands that show up in malls. Never heard of their names, but they take some space in expensive malls, and you know that these cars will never ever sell. Thank you for this video, it explains a lot why this is happening.
Those millions of cars are probably produced by one manufacturer and then marketed under a different label ....it doesn't matter if it sells or not they just have to sell even 100 and they would have recouped their cost and investment of just buying the vehicles and slapping their names on it...

FUD and garbage. Tesla requires proof of humane mining. You don't mine cobalt. You mine copper )and at most 10% of cobalt with that). There are no "cobalt mines" (FUD with pictures of children mining "COBALT" where they really dig COLTAN 400$ dollars per kg! Merkins are too stupid to know the difference). Cobalt WAS and is still mainly used in making UNLEAD FUEL and cutting tools (they absolutely don't give a f. about minerals orginins).

WE CAN> PEOPLE LIKE YOU JUST REFUSE TO DO IT. Stop buying their shit. Start with the big items. Make it known that we are getting off the China teet and then before you know it, like Bud Lite, we are winning and bring manufacturing back to all our home countries.
This has been my biggest beef with environmentalist activism. They constantly make demands for their home countries in the West to make sacrifices for their cause, with their primary target being regular people just trying to make their regular commutes. Even if such mass scale changes were made in the west, the net effect and benefit would be miniscule. But when it comes to nations like China, where this sort of pollution is off the charts? Their silence is deafening.
You should check out the garbage dump in India where all the surplus goods get sent. There are mountains and mountains of returned Amazon items, mountains of clothes that don't sell, mountains of everything. It is completely astonishing and surreal. It really shows that poverty in the form of lack of clothes, appliances, things you need to live in the modern world, is completely manufactured (pun intended). Poverty is simply about controlling the masses.
The difference is that Amazon actually sells the pallets of returned goods. (Because some money is better than no money.) How many times have you gone to the store and saw things on a "clearance" rack for 50% off? It's not like there wouldn't be a market for these bikes and cars. They should let TEMU sell this stuff on the internet and take a cut of that.

I'd say the biggest risk of having that many electric cars abandoned and parked together is that an eventual short circuit will cause a fire and the entire lot of them will burn
@@MontanaMedic13 I would not even attempt that.. Its Chinese built batteries made for Chinese companies so western quality standards are not even remotely there, so its highly likely that those go up in flames. Not that western companies are doing much better, but least there is some ways to get them be responsible if car goes up in flames. Good luck doing that with Chinese company. Taking these apart to sell the metals.. that has potential, just needs to be really careful and drain the system of power before taking it apart. Its really too bad you cant trust these things to serve your purposes cause i would love making my own vehicles from parts like these, but sadly laws around here make it really god damn difficult and expensive. EV was boasted as new environmentally friendly way of travel, but its not and governments are already throwing taxes on them now that there are more than few them around. Only ones that benefitted were the elite who got government subsidies to buy them in the first place and they would sell them in couple years for massive profit.
@@rudolffabrie3233 A country needs manufacturing. It needs to make things so it can learn and effectively solve its own problems. The US should have never allowed companies to offload manufacturing to foreign countries. Second, the Chinese are not and never will be the Japanese or Koreans period. Both instill quality and consistency. The US does the same because of regulations. China just doesn’t care. Third, it’s insulting that any company actually go so far to use Chinese ingredients in medicine and food. They have no rules or regulations. - This why some medicine has QC issues and makes people sick. - This is exactly why and how COVID-19 spread. Not to mention - every single thing China makes breaks. From imported Sofa’s to Water Guns - it fails or breaks costing US consumers billions. Amish furniture doesn’t fail. I wonder why? Even now, they have not changed anything related to how they export products and items made there. To do business in China, you need to give up all your IP so they can copy it. It’s wrong. China pursues defacto theft.
@@tdsdave Well the cobalt is at least, never said it was economical in the short run, long term however it's a waste to leave rare earth materials sitting in a bunch of cars.
The governments of some states due his with tanks. We have a desert full of tanks the army has said it doesn't want and will never use but the factories employ people so the politicians won't let the factories stop and call anyone who questions it weak and unamerican. Guess which political party does this?
Ah, it seems the Chinese haven't quite grasped the art of deceiving investors the way we Westerners have. Instead of taking the easy route of forging sales numbers and shamelessly lying about their products being the next big thing, they actually go the extra mile and build entire cities filled with ghostly apparitions and graveyards for cars and bicycles. Kudos to them for their dedication to the craft! Meanwhile, we Americans have been excelling in the realm of creating fictitious investment opportunities like FTX, Theranos, and the infamous Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities. It's been a long-standing tradition in the West ever since Charles Ponzi realized he could easily fool people into parting with their hard-earned money. Oh, the wonders of Western innovation! Cheers from Park City Utah! lol
I'm still ticked off about the skyscraper living areas. When they started building them it made concrete prices skyrocket because they were using up a great deal of raw materials world wide. It was a hard time for the construction industry.
i remember that. 20+ years ago thereabouts? when all of those freighter ships got stranded in the chinese harbors because they weren't getting paid or refueled. then there was this little company, called Knightsbridge Tanker that was one of the few little freighter companies that didn't get all their ships stuck in Chinese ports. Their stock went crazy.

If people even try to tel me (as someone who sorts my trash, recycling since I was a child) that I’m not doing enough for the environment, I will show them this video and ask them how much more do I have to do living a modest and respectful life to offset a country that does this? The fact of the matter is, we can’t. It’s going to go to a place of no return because we aren’t holding them responsible. Add on all the unsustainable mining for their cheap “crystals” that sell on tiktok, bikes left in mountains, and pollution emissions from their factories… it’s going to get to a point of no return before we know it.
You should research the recycling scam - hardly any of the so called recycling can be recycled there is a documentary on it & the wee green arrow logo for recycling is a scam as well ✋
That is simpletons way to blame whole another country for some poor businessmans choices) (and im not even sure where are investors for these types of campaings are coming from, could possibly be some of your neighbours or friends). One cannot maintain capitalism and fulfill urban urges without destroying environment. You just dont see whole picture, just try to understand the roots that led to this situation)) You couldnt even write or see this stuff without youtube, chinese/taiwanese cheap labored smartphones etc (everything works on overdemand and overdelivery).
And yet they contribute to world sadness by being gullible idiots voting for politicians responsible for it not bothering to pay attention beyond what their TV or TikTok tells them.
Was literally just asking myself why I try to learn about the world, when it only makes me more black pilled and hopeless. I guess at this point it's like the murder shows i watch: morbid curiosity.🖤
I remember working in a car hire firm in the channel island of Jersey in the '70s. The hire cars were often sold at a loss by car companies to increase the apparent sales of a particular model. After a short life as a hire car, they went onto the second hand market.
They often lose money on their entry level gas sipper cars because they need a fleet average miles per gallon for government standards. Yet not many people buy them. Some years back Ford flooded the market with cheap tauruses at a loss. They were good cars for the money. You can get an economy car brand new for $12,000 or $14,000 if you look where a regular model only slightly bigger is $30,000.
Thank you for showing this. Nevertheless, have a look at the GM EV1 story. The electric vehicles were taken from the people who had rented and they were brought to a desert and destroyed.
teink1 • Correct. This is the real face of what communism means. Work for almost free for the communist state, and the result of this cheap work is thrown in the garbage, because is everybody's and nobody's property.
These assets are privately owned and companies the US does the same a lot. Often they destroy completely new and good products so they prices stay high. Not to mention we all throw perfectly good stuff away because it is "outdated".
They already told you but the reality is that this happens when there is no accountability, for both, government and corporations. It's not too different from what tobacco, asbestos, food, sugar, pharma, finance, etc corps do in our Western countries that allowed it to happen by its citizens. In short this is a Ponzi based ecocide.

I would not be surprised if those "cars" actually have no batteries or other crucial parts, needed for them to be drivable. Much like those whole neighborhoods with huge condominiums that were never intended to be lived in, so they lacked piping, electric cables, heating, etc. They were intended and build as "an investment assets".
So are you saying they were pushed, towed or lifted into place by forklift. And how did they load them onto the transporters to get them to the fields. I'd be interested to know if they don't actually function.
@@jasonmilton omg, right? i am outraged! i thought the chairman was a fighter for clean green energy and a philanthropist and environmentalist and lover of nature and savior of the earth and its little animals and creatures, unlike all of the sick evil bad people here in the west that just want to destroy the world for profit! i can't believe this! i even heard whispers and rumors a few years back about them eating dogs, but i think that one must be fake because i had a coworker that went there on vacation, and he said that they didn't do that. he said the meat tasted funny, but they assured him that it was indeed just chicken. just chicken fried in a special kind of really really dark oil. apparently some kind organic locally-sourced variety. that's a good thing, right? gotta support the local economy and local oil producers and everything! so i guess it's not all bad.. but i still can't get over these electric vehicle just being left to rot! imagine the amount of innocent little critters that were living in those fields and that had their lives destroyed by evil people parking their heavy metal boxes right on top of their little homes!
These cute little cars with their panda faces aren’t rotting, they’re just parked while the owners are enjoying a stroll in the nice Hangzhou parks nearby. There are a lot of peeps in China ;-) Thank you for sharing this with the world, Serpent ZA! Great stuff! I worked at Geely for a year back in the days and despite the mess the scale of it is truly mind-boggling. Never going back.
This happens across the world. Our local council bought dozens of electric vehicles solely because of tax incentives, when those incentives are no longer in place they will go back to the ( more reliable and convenient) diesel vehicles. It's always about the money, it's been about money from the beginning, not 'saving the planet'.
@@andrewwebb624 Yeah sure, people around the world are only using gas and diesel because someone pays them to use it, right? Do you even know what the word subsidies means?
@@psevenson Do you know what subsidies means? In Australia the fossil fuel industry gets $15 billion a year in subsidies. Farmers, mining and transport get a 40% subsidy on their fuel.
@@BatMan-oe2gh That's not subsidising, it's called tax reduction. You know that fossil fuels are heavily taxed, right? Even if the consumer get tax reduction, the producer of the fuel doesn't get any subsidise: they still have to bear their own cost for producing and delivering the fuel. Now compare this with for example the electric wind power industry that doesn't have to bear its own cost and gets direct subsidising to produce the electricity. That's the difference.
That's really painful to see. If it wasn't for logistics, some other countries across Africa and Asia could have used those (if they won't randomly burst into flames. Another doom scenario, imagine that whole field becoming a toxic inferno).
Great idea. Let’s send them to poor countries that don’t have basic electricity for their constituents. Every African living in a mud hut can have a useless car. Brilliant.
And would destroy any existing car dealerships / cycle shops, businesses, and their livelihoods in those countries, if they just dumped it all in there.
I’ve seen all the “cool” Chinese electric cars and battery inventions and whatsoever in last years IAA. My friends (Engineers working with cars in different fields) and I (Computer Scientist with a lot of courses in Electrical Engineering) were surprised to see the cheap (and sometimes really bad) quality of these cars. Ever since we didn’t understand how the numbers match the product so I was just waiting to see this ever since. Yes, as Germans we also complain about the quality of Teslas, but that’s more in reference to the bad assembly, not the inbuilt tech itself. And Tesla would never bring a car to the IAA that looks like a 3 year old made the cube fit the triangle cutout. But these Chinese cars…they tried to trick everyone with futuristic stages and food samples. These cars were just really bad in comparison …😅 Little edit: I didn't mention the German part in terms of: OMG, GERMAN CARS ONLY; EVERYTHING ELSE IS CHEAP BS!! What I wanted to say is we criticise cars also a lot on how neatly they look, not only tech. I mean..tesla has some good tech but they are referred to as "cheap plactic toys". I just wanted to say that we criticise teslas for their bad assembly but teslas are on god level compared to these chinese cars. I'm not a fanatic fangirl of german car brands, we produce a lot of shit sometimes (as mentioned in a comment the timing chain issue in some VW motors and ... software...). Otoh, they are usually good for speeding and we don't have a speed limit in my area..so... people will buy a car they can speed with. And we have to have regular maintanace anyways due to safety ionspections and guidlines so that's normal for us and idk..these cars just are reliable for us (apart from well known issues in some models but ppl just don't get them). US cars don't last very long the way people drive here, I just hear a lot of complaints and "never again" comments. (Not saying US cars are bad, we just have different expectations or something like it). Edit 2: Also not saying Teslas are crappy cars. Yes, there are some videos aout there of intresting assembly decisions but I think teslas are really good cars, I am a big fan of what they do (engineering wise). If I could drive an electric car where I live (infrastructure problems and germany has stupid rules...the charging station system has too many companies with different payment methods and connectors and whatsoever, it's idiotic atm and this needs to change) I'd probably get a Tesla if i wanted a full electric or a japanese hybrid.
Germans should be the last people to talk about quality. You guys have BMW and Audi that cannot even reach 100k miles without spending upto 20% of the car value in repairs by then 😂. Never ever buying a BMW or Audi again. If you want to talk quality, compare to Japanese not German please. Germans have performance and engineering NOT quality
@@Dulc3B00kbyBrant0n That's not what he said. He said they try to trick people, while Tesla can have panel gabs, or did I should say. They never cheap out where it matters or try to trick people.
I expect the PRC 🇨🇳 CPCommunists to dump them upon their poorest, closest allies in exchange for a few pennies and scraps as bribes to their CPCommunist-controlled leaders but only once it becomes well-known internationally that the PRC 🇨🇳 is full of pollution from 'Chinese-designed and manufactured' 🏭 'electrical vehicles'.
@@stlouisix3 I just know how the mindset there is to do everything cheap. To me, it seems to make more sense to just register the shell of the car but use the battery cells in other cars or cheap tools or whatever. I highly doubt they just left the batteries there to rot.
This supports what I have thought for several years. It also confirms my own experiences with Chyna. Most of North America bought into such nonsense and sent their own jobs overseas b/c they provided cheaper products and they lie.Thanks for post.
What did they buy into? Manufacturing is cheaper in China because labour is cheaper in China. The other option would have been to go bankrupt or be outcompeted. Nobody prefers Chinese made items.
I mean… for most common goods, it’s cheaper to mass produce in China because they have the people to work the assembly and the manufacturing plant is there.
Ok, so the companies received funding from the Chinese government and here they have already built thousands of bicycles and thousands of cars, so why didn't they sell them?
That’s my question too. Even if they sell all of the products off to a third party so they can refurbish / market / sell them, it’ll be a great source of extra income outside of the investment money. It just makes no logical sense.
I was astounded when I caught a bullet train out of Beijing, we passed a massive massive dump of those Share bikes! I reckon the dump was about the size of a few Olympic stadiums!

A developing nation is trying to get a kitchen table before the food to eat on . Most Chinese are poor and wonder where their next meal is coming from. Survival is a priority before EV.
I just can’t believe the fire hazard that is just bound to happen, let alone like you mentioned all the human rights atrocity, work, and environmental damage that was done to make these, just for these to sit in a field.
I think the reason a lot of people don't believe this story is because the cars are parked neatly, but just wait until they run out of room and start stacking them up on top of each other, just like they did with the bicycles.
No, the reason they don’t believe it is because we see about 10,000 cars but they sell 5 million BEVs in China every year. If they want to push their sales numbers we would need videos of millions of BEVs and not 10,000.
As someone that used to work for GM and Nissan, we do the same thing in the US. China unfortunately, isn't doing anything abnormal to other nations. Only difference is that in America, they don't have to register them to say they sold them. They do it in America for stockholder reasons.
Lol I hope you’re being facetious because the only time I’ve ever seen so many vehicles in one spot was at a junkyard or auction site. Never have I ever seen a field of brand new vehicles just rotting, pretty sure someone here would’ve stolen them somehow someway. 🤣
@@sookendestroy1I saw that in Germany but these were yet not sold cars at the beginning of covid era. They did not rod but standing a long time because no one did buy new cars.
I hope those cars have had the batteries removed. The toxic release from hundreds of deteriorating batteries would be devastating for the water in that area.
They do. How do they move em on to transport otherwise? To or from. Whenever they have these situations, they don’t waste money being “eco friendly”. Would cost hundreds of thousands to remove batteries just for the materials.
Really fed up with these TH-cam anchors talking nonsense, but anyone who understands Chinese knows that the guy in that video at the beginning was talking about 600 cars in stock and a mix of used and new cars, and the guy who recorded the video is also a used car resale dealer, and he was talking about a lot of stock in that video as an act of advertisement, in order to make the price of those cars he bought more tempting. And the car in the video behind are on the license plate of the shared electric car, is to facilitate people to travel not to no car to drive, that is, you meet this kind of car in any place as long as you scan the QR code payment can be directly drive away to use. And these commercial promotional behavior and convenience for people to be maliciously interpreted as such in TH-cam, really makes people fall down.
That's how over production works. It's been existent in the West for decades, whether it is cheese, wine or cars. China is learning quickly from the West!
China had a lot of EV manufacturer start-ups. The field of competitors is shrinking as manufacturers like BYD come to the front of the pack and many of the weaker companies are dropping out of the race.
Wow, this is insanely horrific for earth and everyone, the miners, the toxic waste of ALL the components. I'm sharing and tweeting this. Thank you for raising our awareness.
There are NOT TOXIC WASTE/MINERALS IN EV CARS! (Except in standard 12V LEAD-acid battery that most of them has to power normal lights, doors, ect. (New cars like teslas dont have them - they use LPF batteries and main one for legacy 12V). STOP spreading fossil industry FUD & lies!
Those cycles looked like the smiles of ten thousand kids, stranded and strangled for the sake of greed. I literally felt like a smaller version of myself, when the colorful cycles were out of reach for me, and that remains so for most of us kids in the global south. Seriously, when the cars stand there wasted, the cries of a million child labourers from our lands go in vain. I felt that in my heart. Send the damn cars somewhere they could be used, or salvage them for their parts. If you let them decompose, It won't be long before the Chinese need for spices in their food ends, the heat will all be there in the chemicals.

Appreciate your videos. I have always maintained that China was burning the candle at both ends and profiting from others countries disadvantages. Therefore they are now reaping what they have sown as the saying goes. Our company has also bought steel products from China and it put it mildly it is crap in the first degree.Keep up the good work.
For every effort we make to reduce emissions in America, China shits out 100x into the trash. So why are we torturing our own people when it's a global issue?
@riharikaa809 The PRC is only into things that will benefit THEM and their communist government. Anything of GOOD quality is only for their military OR the top ranked leaders. The PRC will literally scour the earth for ANYTHING that they can steal (ideas or technology) or buy and reverse engineer. For a very long time ( probably still continuing) the PRC totally DENIED patents on things from many countries. Did NOT matter what the items were.
My girlfriend's parents in China seem to feel the same way S they are actively trying to join us in the States. Their work ethic and demeanor is very, very advantageous for them here where in China it is seen as a matter of course.

In China, Green plates mean it's EV, regular gas cars have blue plates, and if you think you're seeing gas caps, you're wrong as many Chinese manufacturers use their ICE platforms to make EVs, for those of you who don't understand how Chinese EV Manufacturing works or are skeptical, here's a list of the vehicles shown in this video:
ELECTRIC VEHICLES ;
=================
1) 0:02 - EV [Car: NETA V EV] -> bottom left of video, no front grill, looks like they have license plates (i.e. issued to buyers)
2) 0:12 - EV [Car: BYD E3 EV (Build Your Dream written on back)] -> green license plate (also look up a picture on BYD e2 wiki and you'll see BYD e3 pictures, BYD e3 picture shows GAS DOORS like a gas car, but it's an EV)
3) 3:08 - EV (most likely) -> no front grille (EV's don't need air to cool radiator), all license plated
4) 3:32/6:52 (Cao'an Hangzhou) - EV [Car: BJEV EC3 EV / BJEV EC180 EV] -> they also have green license plates
5) 5:19 (Xialaosha Hangzhou) - EV [Car: Kandi K11 Panda] -> has ad showing green related stuff on doors (it also has a gas cap like door on the left side even though it's an EV)
6) 5:34 (Dongjiangzui Hangzhou) - EV [Car: Kandi K11 / Kandi K10] -> has ad showing green related stuff on doors
7) 5:34/8:16 zoom up (Dongjiangzui Hangzhou) - EV [Car: K10C = Kandi K10] -> wiki excerpt of Kandi K10: "The electrical system of the K10 consists of a 20 kWh battery", NOTE: has a gas cap looking door on the right side in the zoom up picture
8) 5:52 (Xinlaosha Hangzhou) - EV [Car: Kandi K10/K11] -> all license plated
9) 6:44 (Cao'an Hangzhou) - EV [Car: BJEV EU5 EV] -> green license plate
10) 6:48 (Cao'an Hangzhou) - EV [Car: BJEV EC 180] -> note: video shows that this EV also has a gas tank door, but it's an EV
11) 6:50 - EV -> front grill not seen (gas car needs air to cool radiator)， sticker on side of door says "electric car", another car in background has green license plate
12) 3:23 - green license plate - green plates given to new technology cars (could be hybrid)
GAS CAR

The story quickly spread - yet it was nothing more than an urban legend! The fact that new cars are parked in large quantities at ports, test tracks, and other locations is not due to a crisis or overproduction, but solely because new vehicles need to be stored somewhere temporarily before being delivered or shipped."

China is progressing so rapidly! They went from throwing away new bicycles to throwing away new cars in record time.
Whereas we're just throwing away our entire countries.

The only thing that surprised me about the abandoned cars is that the local police, in need of quick revenue, didn't send people out to ticket every one of them for illegal parking.
Haha! Reminds me of a Sergio Aragones, small print joke in MAD Magazine. There are these trucks that carry the new vehicles from the manufacturing site to the dealers. Well, one of them is parked illegally and the police gives a ticket not only to the truck, but to every brand new car that is on that truck! :-)

This is one of the most important videos on the internet today. Unbelievable waste, greed and avarice.
You know you can make 10,000 cars in 4-5 weeks right? And in China it is probably faster. It's really not that big of a lot.
Every democrat needs to see this to show what scam electric cars are. Our power grid can't even handle brown outs with less than 1% EV cars. Now you want government to control it ? THE most UNRELIABLE company, ever ? Government employees can't be fired, and they don't care about YOU.
Firstly this is a fake video from Winston Sterzil. Anyone who can read Chinese can tell you, this guy is talking about 600 cars not 10000.
And all it would take... is just for their government to step in, and sell these bikes/cars at affordable prices to the public. Not even in the Soviet Russia, has it ever been done this way. This is truly horrendous and despicable. Chinese government should be ashamed for allowing this to happen, when a solution is so plain, obvious and simple.

Is it though? Sounds a lot like western spun propaganda when not everything is compared properly against each other, which works best when mixed in with some actual facts (like the bikes and EVs). Recently; "China biggest carbon emission" when data from what I'd consider a far less biased statistical site shows US (and Canada, and Australia, and several others) ranking far higher if you account for "per capita". And in this one; it's only China doing something bad for mining or utilizing child/slave labor, when western corporations are *MORE* than happy to exploit this for as long as they can despite being fully aware of it. Yes I agree, China bad, China sucks, Communism sucks, blablabla... But so do we, and that is never reflected upon! Africa is headed for humanitarian catastrophes ahead, and it's our fault, *ALL* of us, not limited to China and their exploitative methods.

One note. It's most likely the batteries are LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) as they are the main battery of CATL and BYD, easy to mass produce and don't use the conflict minerals like NCA or other cobalt based chemistry. What's messed up is those batteries (god I hope they were stripped out before being parked) could be repacked into containers and literally power villages upon villages for more than 20 years. That is the main tragedy!
Was going to say this
Shhh, stop talking facts. TH-cam doesn't like this. 👍
The lithium is still very precious. So much that recycling lithium batteries will be like a "gold rush".
So in the west, old bad lithium batteries are hunted down as a resource, in China the fresh good batteries are thrown out to rot!
I wouldn't worry too much, as soon as people know that it's worth something, they will go and get the batteries or metals from these cars and re sell it.
The old people living in my flat always check the garbage and take plastic bottles and cardboard that they resell. Will be the same with these cars I believe, as long as one dude finds out how to make money with it.

Great video. I've been to China a half dozen times on extended business trips where I had time to travel and sightsee, and every time I come back and tell my friends and family and co-workers the stories of the insanities that I've seen there, and people hardly believe me. Superhighways with no cars on them. Massive residential building complexes that would dwarf the burroughs of New York - rotting and unfinished and empty. Huge industrial complexes and warehouses - abandoned. The amount of money spent in China on unused and unfinished rotting infrastructure boggles the mind. You have to go there and see it to believe it. The bicycles and electric cars in this video are like a tiny pebble in a landfill compared to the other abandoned infrastructure. And despite what some in the comments are saying about it being privately owned - it's not true! The money shell game in China starts with the CCP, printing renminbi, loaning it out to party aligned "investors" who use the money to attract more investors, build a bunch of shit like this, skim profits along the way, then abandon it all. There's no system there for dealing with it. There's no timely or authoritative bankruptcy court to sell off the assets and recoup money for investors. The cars aren't sitting on land owned by a holding company that owns the land and vehicles, or that leases the land to store them. The assets literally belong to no one. The state is too corrupt and dysfunctional to acquire the assets and sell them off as we would do in the USA. The shell game is like sending crypto to a burn address: print money, loan it, acquire investors, spend the money on infrastructure (while skimming profits), then the infrastructure becomes 0x0000 and rots.

Some of the cars in that field of Kandis (the ones with the shield logo) are quite old. The k10c is based off of the smart car knockoff made by the Huoyon Electrombile Corp, which started production around 2006-2008. They were built using chasis made for kids toys not able to go over 10mph and used fiberglass bodies built by scaling up an imported model of a first generation smart car. Basically, if you got in any kind of accident you were screwed. They actually sold some here under the Kandi, Flybo, and Wildfire brands, but thank God they were speed limited to 25mph. Because of their age and cheap production they used lead acid batteries, which while more recyclable and less combustible than Li-ion, which is used in New EVs, it is my understanding that lead acid is more detrimental to the environment if not dealt with properly.
Also, you recall how I said they sold some here? That ultimately never panned out because the cars were total crap, and now there are some lots here in America full of abandoned Chinese EVs.
EVs are a Ponzi scam in themselves. there's no doubt about it. They'll never replace the thermic and hybrid cars like the ones we use today. At best it's a dead end technology and the western governments are pushing them down our throats to comply with the WEF agenda (since they were trained by the WEF themselves) to eventually sell off their country to the next economic power that be.
And Chinese EV‘s were supposed to be competitive against EV’s in other countries. Thanks for the post. Made In China, indeed.

How much easier to lose bicycles across all of Shanghai or other Chinese cities. Within 5 seconds I could see that this scheme was doomed to failure and waste. Why couldn't the Chinese government see the most obvious thing?

Not for people to use but to line their pockets with investment money. Polluting the planet for money, It's evil.
This is why "going green" and stopping "climate change" is just delusions of grandeur. Because no matter how "green" and "eco friendly" western countries get you have China and India sabotaging it all by being the biggest polluters on the damn planet.

No one ignores this.

It’s not even remotely close to being the same thing. One is a fascist genocidal nation state with a population of over 1.5 billion people destroying our planet faster than at any other point in world history, and the other is a civil dispute between two companies wherein neither side wants to eat more costs than it has to.

There are mountains and mountains of returned Amazon items, mountains of clothes that don't sell, mountains of everything. It is completely astonishing and surreal. It really shows that poverty in the form of lack of clothes, appliances, things you need to live in the modern world, is completely manufactured (pun intended). Poverty is simply about controlling the masses.
The difference is that Amazon actually sells the pallets of returned goods. (Because some money is better than no money.) How many times have you gone to the store and saw things on a "clearance" rack for 50% off? It's not like there wouldn't be a market for these bikes and cars. They should let TEMU sell this stuff on the internet and take a cut of that.
Well, when you keep arresting the drivers for independent thought you're gonna have to park their cars somewhere.
That's it exactly. Something is snowballing. It will take hold eventually- everyone has their threshold of tolerance.

yup, was thinking the same. They gave us huge fireworks warehouse explosions now it's electric vehicles next.
@@MontanaMedic13 I would not even attempt that.. Its Chinese built batteries made for Chinese companies so western quality standards are not even remotely there, so its highly likely that those go up in flames. Not that western companies are doing much better, but least there is some ways to get them be responsible if car goes up in flames. Good luck doing that with Chinese company. Taking these apart to sell the metals.. that has potential, just needs to be really careful and drain the system of power before taking it apart. Its really too bad you cant trust these things to serve your purposes cause i would love making my own vehicles from parts like these, but sadly laws around here make it really god damn difficult and expensive. EV was boasted as new environmentally friendly way of travel, but its not and governments are already throwing taxes on them now that there are more than few them around. Only ones that benefitted were the elite who got government subsidies to buy them in the first place and they would sell them in couple years for massive profit.

i remember that. 20+ years ago thereabouts? when all of those freighter ships got stranded in the chinese harbors because they weren't getting paid or refueled. then there was this little company, called Knightsbridge Tanker that was one of the few little freighter companies that didn't get all their ships stuck in Chinese ports. Their stock went crazy.

You just used a lot of words to say 'Ignorance is bliss'
Such an insane waste of resources
I remember working in a car hire firm in the channel island of Jersey in the '70s. The hire cars were often sold at a loss by car companies to increase the apparent sales of a particular model. After a short life as a hire car, they went onto the second hand market.
They often lose money on their entry level gas sipper cars because they need a fleet average miles per gallon for government standards. Yet not many people buy them. Some years back Ford flooded the market with cheap tauruses at a loss. They were good cars for the money. You can get an economy car brand new for $12,000 or $14,000 if you look where a regular model only slightly bigger is $30,000.
That practice still goes on,
Thank you for showing this.
Nevertheless, have a look at the GM EV1 story. The electric vehicles were taken from the people who had rented and they were brought to a desert and destroyed.

These assets are privately owned and companies the US does the same a lot. Often they destroy completely new and good products so they prices stay high. Not to mention we all throw perfectly good stuff away because it is "outdated".
This was personal ownership. Didn't you pay attention?
They already told you but the reality is that this happens when there is no accountability, for both, government and corporations. It's not too different from what tobacco, asbestos, food, sugar, pharma, finance, etc corps do in our Western countries that allowed it to happen by its citizens. In short this is a Ponzi based ecocide.

I would not be surprised if those "cars" actually have no batteries or other crucial parts, needed for them to be drivable. Much like those whole neighborhoods with huge condominiums that were never intended to be lived in, so they lacked piping, electric cables, heating, etc. They were intended and build as "an investment assets".
So are you saying they were pushed, towed or lifted into place by forklift. And how did they load them onto the transporters to get them to the fields. I'd be interested to know if they don't actually function.

i can't believe this! i even heard whispers and rumors a few years back about them eating dogs, but i think that one must be fake because i had a coworker that went there on vacation, and he said that they didn't do that. he said the meat tasted funny, but they assured him that it was indeed just chicken. just chicken fried in a special kind of really really dark oil. apparently some kind organic locally-sourced variety. that's a good thing, right? gotta support the local economy and local oil producers and everything!
so i guess it's not all bad.. but i still can't get over these electric vehicle just being left to rot! imagine the amount of innocent little critters that were living in those fields and that had their lives destroyed by evil people parking their heavy metal boxes right on top of their little homes!

Thank you for sharing this with the world, Serpent ZA! Great stuff! I worked at Geely for a year back in the days and despite the mess the scale of it is truly mind-boggling. Never going back.
This happens across the world.
Our local council bought dozens of electric vehicles solely because of tax incentives, when those incentives are no longer in place they will go back to the ( more reliable and convenient) diesel vehicles.
It's always about the money, it's been about money from the beginning, not 'saving the planet'.
You do know that gas and diesel hasn't been profitable for like 4o years and it's only usable because of subsidies, right?
@@andrewwebb624 Yeah sure, people around the world are only using gas and diesel because someone pays them to use it, right? Do you even know what the word subsidies means?
@@andrewwebb624 What!? Realy, what?
@@psevenson Do you know what subsidies means? In Australia the fossil fuel industry gets $15 billion a year in subsidies. Farmers, mining and transport get a 40% subsidy on their fuel.
@@BatMan-oe2gh That's not subsidising, it's called tax reduction. You know that fossil fuels are heavily taxed, right? Even if the consumer get tax reduction, the producer of the fuel doesn't get any subsidise: they still have to bear their own cost for producing and delivering the fuel. Now compare this with for example the electric wind power industry that doesn't have to bear its own cost and gets direct subsidising to produce the electricity. That's the difference.
That's really painful to see. If it wasn't for logistics, some other countries across Africa and Asia could have used those (if they won't randomly burst into flames. Another doom scenario, imagine that whole field becoming a toxic inferno).
No they can’t
They don’t have the infrastructure to charge these and African roads would destroy these cars in weeks
Africa is not feasible, poor infrastructure and looking will destroy these cars in weeks.
Great idea. Let’s send them to poor countries that don’t have basic electricity for their constituents. Every African living in a mud hut can have a useless car. Brilliant.
I'd imagine they are stripped of core components that are reused to make the 'new cars sold'
And would destroy any existing car dealerships / cycle shops, businesses, and their livelihoods in those countries, if they just dumped it all in there.
I’ve seen all the “cool” Chinese electric cars and battery inventions and whatsoever in last years IAA. My friends (Engineers working with cars in different fields) and I (Computer Scientist with a lot of courses in Electrical Engineering) were surprised to see the cheap (and sometimes really bad) quality of these cars. Ever since we didn’t understand how the numbers match the product so I was just waiting to see this ever since.
Yes, as Germans we also complain about the quality of Teslas, but that’s more in reference to the bad assembly, not the inbuilt tech itself. And Tesla would never bring a car to the IAA that looks like a 3 year old made the cube fit the triangle cutout. But these Chinese cars…they tried to trick everyone with futuristic stages and food samples. These cars were just really bad in comparison …😅
Little edit: I didn't mention the German part in terms of: OMG, GERMAN CARS ONLY; EVERYTHING ELSE IS CHEAP BS!!
What I wanted to say is we criticise cars also a lot on how neatly they look, not only tech. I mean..tesla has some good tech but they are referred to as "cheap plactic toys". I just wanted to say that we criticise teslas for their bad assembly but teslas are on god level compared to these chinese cars.
I'm not a fanatic fangirl of german car brands, we produce a lot of shit sometimes (as mentioned in a comment the timing chain issue in some VW motors and ... software...). Otoh, they are usually good for speeding and we don't have a speed limit in my area..so... people will buy a car they can speed with. And we have to have regular maintanace anyways due to safety ionspections and guidlines so that's normal for us and idk..these cars just are reliable for us (apart from well known issues in some models but ppl just don't get them). US cars don't last very long the way people drive here, I just hear a lot of complaints and "never again" comments. (Not saying US cars are bad, we just have different expectations or something like it).
Edit 2: Also not saying Teslas are crappy cars. Yes, there are some videos aout there of intresting assembly decisions but I think teslas are really good cars, I am a big fan of what they do (engineering wise). If I could drive an electric car where I live (infrastructure problems and germany has stupid rules...the charging station system has too many companies with different payment methods and connectors and whatsoever, it's idiotic atm and this needs to change) I'd probably get a Tesla if i wanted a full electric or a japanese hybrid.
Communist China pulls this kind of nonsense with just about everything they do!
Germans should be the last people to talk about quality. You guys have BMW and Audi that cannot even reach 100k miles without spending upto 20% of the car value in repairs by then 😂.
Never ever buying a BMW or Audi again. If you want to talk quality, compare to Japanese not German please. Germans have performance and engineering NOT quality

This supports what I have thought for several years. It also confirms my own experiences with Chyna. Most of North America bought into such nonsense and sent their own jobs overseas b/c they provided cheaper products and they lie.Thanks for post.
What did they buy into? Manufacturing is cheaper in China because labour is cheaper in China. The other option would have been to go bankrupt or be outcompeted. Nobody prefers Chinese made items.
There used to be an old saying that 'the worst things happen at sea' this needs to be amended to 'the worst things happen in China'
I mean… for most common goods, it’s cheaper to mass produce in China because they have the people to work the assembly and the manufacturing plant is there.
Ironic that manufacturers are leaving china for cheaper neighboring countries since china is turning into america 2.0
Is it really cheaper if it doesn’t last?
Ok, so the companies received funding from the Chinese government and here they have already built thousands of bicycles and thousands of cars, so why didn't they sell them?
That’s my question too. Even if they sell all of the products off to a third party so they can refurbish / market / sell them, it’ll be a great source of extra income outside of the investment money.
It just makes no logical sense.
Batteries may have been removed after dumping the cars. Its possible to use them separately elsewhere.
