Yes, absolutely. Chinese EVs are connected, state-linked data platforms. A modern Chinese EV is a rolling computer with cameras, microphones and so on. All modern autonomous vehicles or EVs can do that, but China's 2017 National Intelligence Law compels any Chinese firm, including from overseas operations, to share data with Beijing on demand. There's no judicial review and no challenge mechanism.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has been blunt. PRC firms have limited to no recourse. That's why the U.S. bureau of industry and security calls connected vehicles an “undue and unacceptable risk” and why the Five Eyes have already restricted Huawei, TikTok, Hikvision and DJI on the same logic. Connected vehicles are next on that list.
