What's up with Kandi?

In August 2020, Kandi promised it world be bringing affordable, comfortable EVs with 100+ mile ranges to the US market. For just $100 you could put down a deposit on what looked to be a great entry level EV. 9 months on, and the cars are still nowhere to be found, and the company has suddenly started selling NEVs.
