It would be better for consumers that Volkswagen & other car companies price their products closer to what it is sold for in China. The ID.3 can be had for USD $9,400 there.

are the people who make the cars in Europe willing to take a pay cut and be on par with Chinas pay levels to get those prices down?

Why do people continue to pedal this bigoted propaganda?

Is the minimum wage lower in China compared to the UK? Yes, across the board. But let's compare Guangzhou to Solihull. Minimum wage lower? Yes. Cost of living lower? Yes. Are you able to afford to live in an apartment and buy groceries based on what you make building cars? Yes.
