China's electric vehicle (EV) industry is experiencing significant growth, driven by government perks and subsidies. China plans to sell affordable EVs globally, with projections indicating that 10 million EVs will be sold in China this year, six times the number in the United States. Chinese EV manufacturers are expanding their operations internationally, with companies like BYD and Great Wall Motor taking over former Ford and Mercedes-Benz factories in Brazil. Despite the dominance of Chinese EVs, there is debate over whether their success is due to government subsidies or technological innovation and market competition. The International Energy Agency forecasts that 10.1 million EVs will be sold in China, 3.4 million in Europe, and 1.7 million in the US this year. Additionally, China is pushing to legalize self-driving cars with assistance from companies like BYD and NIO.

Interesting article on Chinese automakers global moves. As companies set up operations and supply chains in foreign markets, it should up your priors about the role productivity advantages are playing vs subsidies. https://t.co/dW0CNLogE1
Opinion: #Chinese automakers can adapt to #Brazil’s needs, showing their efficiency and flexibility. #Washington's narrative claiming that Chinese companies gain advantages through government subsidies is far from the truth. https://t.co/ECruCpPt48

Global investment in clean energy has skyrocketed. And, guess what, #China accounts for a majority of the spending — in solar, wind energy, hydropower, batteries, EV etc. China is installing roughly 65% of solar panels and manufacturing 65% of electric cars in the world. https://t.co/PkQSEyUlAW

Chinese EV and battery firms are expanding across Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Morocco, etc. Japanese automakers are especially nervous. In Brazil, BYD took over a former Ford factory and Great Wall Motor took over a former Mercedes-Benz factory. Very symbolic of a broader trend. https://t.co/tf6W3bIgdc

China's perks and subsidies have helped fuel its EV industry's growth while also creating what many see as an unsustainable number of players.
