Polestar is blocked from selling its electric vehicles in the US because it lacks permission under the Connected Vehicles Rule, which restricts cars with technology controlled by Chinese companies. Despite this, Polestar's US sales have been nearly nonexistent, so the ban has little practical effect. The rule and high tariffs also affect other Chinese EV makers like BYD. While US automakers GM and Ford initially feared Chinese EV competition, both have largely exited the EV market. Tesla benefits most from the ban, as it faces less competition in its key US market, though it has faced challenges like the end of federal EV tax credits and political controversies. Overall, Tesla stands to lose the most if Chinese EVs enter the US market freely.
