I have driven byd and some other Chinese brands and it's a really great experience minus the shitty touch screen UX. That being said I wouldn't trust China to run my car ever. Everything is locked down and it absolutely spies on you. I wouldn't trust my life with that to save a bit of money.

Just buying a 2nd hand ice vehicle is better for you and the environment if you're looking for a affordable option.

I'd be way more concerned about whether it's a deathtrap than whether or not the touchscreen has good UX, lol.

Those are not mutually exclusive. The ux is incredibly dangerous especially here in sunny and wet south east asia where China is exporting a lot of cars now. Many accidents are making the news where the driver didn't see something cause they're fucking with the stupid controls instead of driving.

We don't allow smart phone use while driving but somehow giant tablet in the middle of the car is ok.

Exactly - and the new EU safety standards will be limiting the size of screens in cars because of this.
