    Why Chinese automakers may be closer to the U.S. market than people realize
    2026/05/21

    In the first episode of RPM with Jim O’Brien, Jim sits down with Reese Counts from Edmunds.com to discuss one of the most important automotive stories developing right now — the arrival of Chinese automakers and the Geely Galaxy M9.

    After Edmunds became one of the first major U.S. automotive outlets to test the Chinese-built SUV, Reese explains why the Geely surprised nearly everyone on the team with its quality, technology, pricing and 800-mile hybrid range.

    The conversation explores:

    • China’s growing automotive footprint
    • The future of plug-in hybrids and EREVs
    • Volvo and Polestar’s connection to Geely
    • BYD’s global expansion
    • Detroit’s stake in the evolving market
    • Tariffs, politics and security concerns
    • Whether American automakers are prepared for what’s next

    RPM with Jim O’Brien delivers real-world automotive conversations from a Detroit perspective — covering cars, motorsports, technology and the rapidly changing future of transportation.
