I can't wait for BYD and it's technology to come to Canada. - Lemmy.World

I’m tired of the way things are and am actually excited for BYD. They build really great electric vehicles and I saw one video where it charged up just as fact as refueling gasoline would be

I hope they bring their electric buses too.

BYD was building electric buses in Newmarket, Ontario. They were so shit, Toronto stopped using them and they shut down after lawsuits. This is what y’all can’t wait for.
Why BYD’s first manufacturing foothold in Canada was a bust

Replacement parts and language issues were among the challenges for the TTC

I am not able to read the article. It only shows the headline for me.

I found an article with similar title that lists the reasons as:

  • Significant delays in obtaining replacement parts, taking up to 73 days for a single rear axle.
  • Poor quality of repair manuals and a lack of diagnostic tools in English.
  • Insufficient engineering support from BYD during operations.

Does that match the article you shared? Is there more to it?
