Businesses and governments all over the world are searching for technological innovations that reduce costs and increase usage of “environmentally friendly” vehicles. China became the largest car producer in 2009 and it is strongly investing in the manufacturing of electric vehicles. This paper examines the incentives provided by Chinese governments (national and local) and the strategies pursued by BYD, the largest Chinese EVs manufacturer. Specifically, our paper helps to show how government support in the form of subsidies combined with effective strategies implemented by BYD helps to explain why this emerging industry has expanded successfully in China. Our study is based on primary data, including interviews with company headquarters and Brazilian subsidiary managers, and secondary data. © 2016 Departamento de Administrac¸ão, Faculdade de Economia, Administrac¸ão e Contabilidade da Universidade de São Paulo - FEA/USP.

  • China Automotive Industry Study Report for the Swedish Energy Agency August 2019
    BUSINESS SWEDEN CHINA AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY STUDY REPORT FOR THE SWEDISH ENERGY AGENCY AUGUST 2019 www.eqtpartners.com An assignment from the Swedish Energy Agency Göran Stegrin, email [email protected] Disclaimer: This report reflects the view of the consultant (Business Sweden) and is not an official standpoint by the agency. BUSINESS SWEDEN | CHINA AUTOMOTIVE IND USTRY STUDY | 2 SUMMARY Economic slowdown and an ongoing trade war with the United States have impacted the Chinese automotive market. In 2018, new vehicle sales declined for the first time in 20 years. Sales totaled 28,08 million units, reflecting a -2.8% y/y. Electric vehicles remain a promising segment, as the government still provides substantial subsidies to manufacturers, while customers are offered incentives and favorable discounts for purchasing. In order to guide the industry, the Chinses government is gradually reducing subsidies. Stricter rules are also set to raise the subsidy threshold, which will force both OEMs and suppliers along the value chain to increasingly convert themselves into hi-tech companies with core competencies. The evolution is driven by solutions addressing the three main issues created by the last decade’s market boom: energy consumption, pollution and traffic congestion. The Chinese government has shifted its attention from total volume to engine mix and is progressively creating incentives to small and low emission vehicles, while supporting investment in new energy vehicles, mainly electric. In this direction, technologies surrounding new energy vehicles such as power cell materials, fuel cell and driving motor will receive strong support and offer more opportunities. In the light weight area, structure optimization is still the primary ways for OEMs the achieve the weight reduction goal.

  • BYD: China’S Electric Car Pioneer
    GaveKalDragonomics Special Report BYD: China’s electric car pioneer September 2009 in cooperation with GaveKal Dragonomics is pleased to present its subscribers with a detailed investigative report on one of China’s most interesting private companies, battery- and car-maker BYD. The firm is one of the world’s biggest manufacturers of cell phone batteries, and recently diversified into automobiles; its low-priced F3 sedan is China’s best-selling model this year. BYD leaped into the world’s headlines in 2008 when a Warren Buffet-controlled company paid US$232 million for a 10% stake. Media attention has focused on BYD’s stated aim of becoming a leader in electric car production. Close scrutiny suggests that Buffett’s real interest in the company has more to do with its potential to supply large-scale batteries for storage of electricity produced by renewable sources like wind farms. BYD thus stands at the intersection of two of the most crucial questions facing investors today: • Can China produce innovative and globally competitive private companies? • Will the global energy industry find a replacement for oil as a transportation fuel? This report was prepared exclusively for GaveKal Dragonomics subscribers by Fathom China, a Beijing-based consultancy specializing in detailed company background research. About Fathom China Fathom China Ltd. is an independent research company that conducts focused due-diligence investigations on firms and executives in China. Our team of researchers include highly trained former journalists, academics and consultants. Solving Chinese business puzzles is our specialty. Fathom China was formed by Matthew Forney, who served in Beijing for six years as bureau chief of Time magazine and for three years as an investigative reporter for The Wall Street Journal.

Policy imperatives and government support could ensure three-fold volume growth by 2020, which would make China half of this developing global market. New entrants are proliferating, with few clear winners as yet, but we conclude that Yutong and BYD have the scale of NEV sales today to support Buy ratings. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong Deutsche Bank does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports.

[email protected] Abstract Whereas in Europe, national activities to drive e-mobility forward still have to be coordinated at EU level, Chinese leaders have adopted a plan aimed at turning the country into one of the leading producers of hybrid and all-electric vehicles within three years, and making it the world leader in electric cars and busses. This paper presents the case of the Chinese company BYD („Build Your Dreams“), that began selling a plug-in electric car in China, at least a year ahead of similar efforts in the U.S. and Japan. In a Case Study setting, it addresses BYD’s strategic approach of consequently exploiting locational advantages, the importance of a favorable national home base, and the strategic implications for both western and Chinese companies aiming at positioning themselves in the market for e-mobility. Keywords: Porter’s diamond; BYD; e-mobility; National competitive advantage; China; Automobile industry 1. Introduction China is now the biggest automotive market in the world. Within only 10 years, all relevant car producers have established joint venture companies with mostly state-owned Chinese companies.
