They have added tariffs so the pricea of Chinese EVs cannot be ridiculously low.

But they are still competitive to the local competition and so will sell.

As a new entrant, they will be seeking to establish their brands on the roads so may have loss leaders too.

Portugal is also a weird market because cars in general are much pricier than in other EU countries.

This is the first year I've seen BYD cars in Spain.

It was only EVs…

There are BYDs everywhere in Scandinavia, doesn't look like Chinese EVs have been tariffed out of the market at all.

Well for a start Norway is not in the EU and therefore does not have tariffs on Chinese EVs, so would not expect any impact in that part of Scandinavia at least.

Also the tariffs are higher on pure EVs. Plugin hybrids have a lower tariff. As a result, BYD plugin hybrid sales are growing faster than pure electrics in the EU:
