A few days ago, BYD released data that the annual sales of new energy vehicles in 2023 will be 3.02 million units, ranking first in the world.
Since Volkswagen established a joint venture in China in 1984, for 39 years, the first sales volume in China's auto market has been a joint venture, and now it has finally been snatched back by domestic cars, and I have to say that the times have changed.
What's more, in 2023, China's auto exports have surpassed Japan and become the world's first.
According to the data, from January to November, China's automobile exports were 4.412 million units, a year-on-year increase of 58%. Automobile exports are expected to exceed 5 million units for the full year. From January to November, Japan's automobile exports were 3.99 million units, up 15% year-on-year, and exports are expected to be about 4.3 million units in 2023.
Although the data for December is not yet clear, it is clear that it is a foregone conclusion that China's car exports will surpass Japan's, and China will become the world's largest car exporter.
You know, for a long time, Europe and the United States have believed that China's automobile industry is hundreds of years behind Europe and the United States, and Chinese cars can only be developed in the low-end without technical content.
In fact, it is true, in the era of fuel vehicles, no domestic car dares to go to the high-end, are in the low-end fighting, everyone fights and fights, did not make any money, but is a joint venture or imported brand, in the country to cut leeks, make a lot of money.
However, when the new energy era arrives, the times have changed, new energy vehicles do not need engines, gearboxes, and the three major parts have become three electric systems, intelligent cockpits, and automatic driving.
And these three major pieces are related to the operating system, battery, software, etc., which is China's strength, so the rapid rise of domestic new energy vehicles, Wei Xiaoli, BYD, Wenjie, Zeekr, Leap, etc., have developed rapidly.
At present, like Ideal has defeated Audi and become a domestic luxury car brand with good sales, and BYD has become the world's largest new energy vehicle brand, with products selling well in more than 70 countries and more than 400 cities around the world.
At the same time, China has become a global automobile manufacturing center, and even Tesla has come to China to build factories, so China's automobile exports have rapidly surpassed the United States, South Korea, and Germany, and will become the second in the world in 2022, second only to Japan.
In 2023, China's automobile exports will officially surpass Japan and become the world's first, and China is already a real automobile power in the world.
Of course, we still have to see the fact that although the domestic new energy vehicles are great, but most of them are still dominated by the domestic market, next, the domestic new energy vehicles, or need to develop overseas markets, so that China from a big car country, into an automobile power, the flag of Chinese manufacturing, all over the world.
