China's top automaker, BYD, is under investigation by the European Union for violating the EU's electric vehicle (EV) subsidy rules.
BYD received unfair subsidies from China for its electric car plant in Hungary, leading to additional tariffs on China-made EVs exported to Europe.
The European Commission is investigating BYD's EV plant in Hungary, which may result in the automaker selling assets, reducing capacity, repaying subsidies, and paying fines.
The European Union imposed additional tariffs on BYD and other Chinese automakers, while Tesla received a lower duty rate after an investigation.
