You would have to pay the 100% tarriff on a Chinese EV because you'd be "importing" it. You likely wouldn't be able to register it in any state without proving the import duty had been paid.
And assuming you flew under the radar and somehow registered it without paying, the Feds would get access to the registration records and the CBP would eventually come after you.
100% tariff on my bill of sale of $5.00 is $5.00.
totally legit and totally the way every rich asshole does business.
