#China Grabs The Top Spot In Auto Exports In a watershed moment for the global automotive industry, China is estimated to have displaced Japan as the world’s largest auto exporter. The numbers come from the China Passenger #Car Association (CPCA) and show exports, including buses and trucks, leaping last year by 56% to 5.26 million vehicles, valued at about $102 billion. By comparison, the CPCA estimated Japan’s full-year 2023 #exports at just 4.3 million units. China had already surpassed Germany’s annual vehicle shipments in 2022, and South Korea’s in 2021. The statistics provide new evidence of China’s emergence as a car #industry titan, largely on the back of its electric vehicles’ success. Notably, in the fourth quarter, Tesla lost the crown as the world’s largest EV maker to the Warren Buffett-backed, Shenzhen-based giant BYD , which saw its exports increase fivefold to 242,000 in 2023. The #export boom also unfolds against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine and the subsequent withdrawal of #European and #Japanese manufacturers from Russia; during the first 11 months of 2023, vehicle shipments to #Russia surged 545%, to 840,000 units. Still, Chinese automakers face challenges, both domestically and abroad. “They are well-positioned for growth in the coming years,” says William Riggs, an automotive expert and professor of management at the University of San Francisco, “but while they have advanced their supply of critical resources and demonstrated that they can produce high-quality, competitive products, they may face significant headwinds as they scale more.” A critical challenge will be how Chinese automakers navigate the web of international regulations and how they adapt to geopolitical and trade dynamics. “This may be the force that slows down technological innovation,” says Riggs, “particularly since it is directly connected to the ability to recruit high-quality talent to grow and expand research and development.” China’s car industry will also face fierce competition from legacy automakers in the US and Europe as well as Japan, Riggs adds, as they have more #experience in vehicle production and #supplychain management. “Ultimately, the winners will be the companies that can develop brand trust and sell consumers their product,” he says, “which may be a tall task in places like the US. We must keep in mind one of the most expensive aspects of scaling a business is customer acquisition; it’s the equivalent of trench warfare.” #Insurance https://lnkd.in/djwxkmtd

Geopolitical Tensions and #Tariffs in the Automotive Industry - Who is hit the hardest? The #automotive industry is deeply intertwined with global geopolitics, as reflected in the recent data on where automakers sell their cars. Geopolitical tensions, particularly between the U.S., #China, and the #EU, are reshaping the landscape through tariffs and trade policies. Escalating #tariffs on #EVs and critical automotive components impact supply chains and market access, influencing where automakers can competitively sell their vehicles - but they don’t hit every car maker equally. German OEMs like Volkswagen , BMW Group and Mercedes-Benz AG are significantly exposed, with major sales concentrated in Europe and a very high dependency on China. Their American counterparts remain less affected by a US & China EV tariff battle given their lower exposure. Non-Chinese Asian OEM like Toyota Motor Corporation or Kia Worldwide & Hyundai Motor Group are facing a push out from China due to heavily subsidized local BEV OEM and a refocus on EU & US market, further increasing pressure on EU OEM. For me an interesting question is whether ASEAN and India are going to become a volume replacement for China pushed out OEM.

It was a great pleasure to talk about global market trends and free trade, the flexibility provided by our capital allocation strategy regarding the mix between BEVs and ICEs, the opportunities we see in India and the crucial next two to three years in terms of preparing for an even tougher competition with Joe White at Reuters Automotive Europe 2024 in Munich. Free and fair trade as well as open markets are the basis for prosperity, employment and sustainable growth worldwide. Thus it is very questionable whether the current tariff discussion leads into the right direction. But to be honest: For me, tariffs are a short-term issue. Chinese competitors are planning to produce their vehicles in Europe turning competition local and we need to prepare accordingly: - On the product side we have clear strengths: Our current vehicles are highly attractive and absolutely competitive regarding product substance. And there is a lot more to come in terms of product offering. With the ID.2 we will offer a new family of cars for our customers at around EUR 25,000 from 2026 onwards, and we look into the opportunity for an entry level car below. - However, we have to use the next two to three years to become even more competitive on the cost side. This applies in particular to our German plants, where the majority of our electric cars are built today. The next few years present a significant opportunity to advance our cost competitiveness. By doing so, we'll be better positioned to succeed in a more intense competition. At the same time it provides the chance to improve the affordability of our EVs while securing the margins we need to finance the transformation ahead. #REAutoEU

On the occasion of today's #Hauptversammlung annual general meeting for #shareholders of #Volkswagen, I reshare just my comment on the proof of maximum distance to #ESG goals (misuse of market power, deliberate lowering of systems efficiency of my concept hijacked, slowing down of shift towards battery-powered vehicles, political influence on governmental and educational institutions to mute me) and the intentional risking of a scandal bigger than #Dieselgate by VW board of directors. I got affirmations of dozens of valuable experts that my car concept together with my strategic proposals (unveiled before a business angel recommended by Bavarian university of #Bayreuth) like containerization for automated and digitized co-transport AND grid-like trunk for modular, use-case-specific adaption of vehicles was jointly and co-ordinatedly hijacked, even Herbert Diess expressed his excuses before me! The alliance not unveiled yet with other OEMs and most prominent actors like BlackRock, Springer/KKR aims to hinder market efficiency by establishing a monopoly disguised which will in future result in more unsustainable developments! #peargate #ID2 #Fisker #DeutscheBank #BlackRock #KKR #Springer #CSU #CDU #Merz #Kretschmer #Dresden #Bayreuth #München Janne Werning Ingo Speich Andreas Keller ftd.de Media GmbH AFP The Economist Financial Times WirtschaftsWoche brand eins Renault Group CHERY Siemens Mobility moodley Markus Bodenmeier Martin Varsavsky Emmanuel Macron

‚With the ID2 we will offer a new family of cars…‘ You know that VW and other most important players e.g. Springer, BlackRock backed by CSU/CDU have stolen/hijacked my concept and use their borderless market power and servility of German institutions to annihilate me and the possibility of at least discussing my arguments! TU Dresden, Universität Bayreuth, TU Chemnitz, UnternehmerTUM - everyone I approached there KNOWS it’s my concept! But, you are free to do that, no limits of violating corporate governance, innovators rights, VW just miles above every law, rule or civilized customs! #peargate

After three challenging years, the #automotive industry is still volatile. Overall volumes are recovering slowly, with China, India, and Southeast Asia being the growth drivers. By 2024, Chinese OEMs will produce more than half of the vehicles sold in China, marking a big jump in their home market share. 💡 But how likely is the automotive #supplier industry to recover?

Competition in China's battery electric vehicle market has put Volkswagens market share into a tailspin just as new rivals such as BYD have started gaining sales in Europe -- exposing it to new challenges and geopolitical risks such as tariffs. High-volume automakers such as VW, Stellantis and Renault Group may have time to address costs, as Japanese autos needed years before gaining traction in Europe -- consistent with BI analyst Mike Dean's survey. VW's plans are big, but the deciding factor may be operational execution, something the company isn't particularly known for. https://lnkd.in/eG8vxJA8
