'Distorting our market': EU to probe China electric car subsidies

Description

"Global markets are now flooded with cheaper Chinese electric cars" says European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, "and their price is kept artificially low by huge state subsidies". The comments -- made to the European Parliament in Strasbourg -- come as Brussels announces it will investigate Chinese state subsidies for electric vehicles in order to protect the European market from "distortion."
