This is also the first time in history that the export of Chinese vehicles have surpassed 300,000 units in a month. Furthermore, from January to August 2022, China has exported a total of 1.817 million vehicles, which is a year-on-year increase of 52.8%.
According to Cui Dongshu, the Secretary General of the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA), the stellar export performance is due to China’s auto industry remaining resilient to continue to manufacture vehicles reliably while experiencing a global pandemic and supply chain challenges.

Dissecting deep into the data, China exported 83,000 new energy vehicles (NEVs) in August, a month-on-month increase of 53.6% and a year-on-year increase of 82.3%. From January to August 2022, China exported a total of 340,000 NEVs, which is a year-on-year increase of 97.4%.
Countries around the world are actively introducing policies to promote the use of NEVs, providing a golden opportunity for Chinese new energy vehicles to go overseas. It is estimated that the overseas sales of Chinese cars are expected to reach 3 million units in 2025 and 5.5 million units in 2030.
