Consumer [email protected] attitudes about driving experience could also be a hurdle for EV penetration, while government commitment is likely to be the key to success. In our view, China will be the largest EV market due to its large niche segments of the auto market and strong government execution power. BYD could be the most promising EV maker, in our view, due to its distinct positioning in the battery and auto industry. Assume coverage of BYD with a NEUTRAL rating We believe the investment story is more complicated than the development of the industry, as growth of EV sales is non-linear, and is highly dependent on government policies. For China in 2020F, we forecast EV to account for 5% of annual private passenger vehicle sales, 20% of the total taxi fleet, and 50% of the total city bus fleet. Successful penetration into niche markets will likely drive the China EV battery market to 69MWh (RMB137bn, ASP=RMB2,000/kwh) in 2020F, larger than the current size of the global lithium-battery market. We believe electrification of automobiles will provide more opportunities for component makers, including battery makers, than for OEMs. We are downgrading BYD to NEUTRAL, due to potential downside risk from short-term earnings growth, slow auto sales, and rich valuations, in our view. We base our HK$40.0 price target on an SOTP methodology. WATG, Tianneng Power, A123, Ningbo Yunsheng and CSR are possible rising stars for the upcoming EV theme.

  • Chapter 2 China's Cars and Parts
    Chapter 2 China’s cars and parts: development of an industry and strategic focus on Europe Peter Pawlicki and Siqi Luo 1. Introduction Initially, Chinese investments – across all industries in Europe – especially acquisitions of European companies were discussed in a relatively negative way. Politicians, trade unionists and workers, as well as industry representatives feared the sell-off and the subsequent rapid drainage of industrial capabilities – both manufacturing and R&D expertise – and with this a loss of jobs. However, with time, coverage of Chinese investments has changed due to good experiences with the new investors, as well as the sheer number of investments. Europe saw the first major wave of Chinese investments right after the financial crisis in 2008–2009 driven by the low share prices of European companies and general economic decline. However, Chinese investments worldwide as well as in Europe have not declined since, but have been growing and their strategic character strengthening. Chinese investors acquiring European companies are neither new nor exceptional anymore and acquired companies have already gained some experience with Chinese investors. The European automotive industry remains one of the most important investment targets for Chinese companies. As in Europe the automotive industry in China is one of the major pillars of its industry and its recent industrial upgrading dynamics. Many of China’s central industrial policy strategies – Sino-foreign joint ventures and trading market for technologies – have been established with the aim of developing an indigenous car industry with Chinese car OEMs. These instruments have also been transferred to other industries, such as telecommunications equipment.
