New Zealand Market for August, over 2500 EVs were sold
Tesla sold 745 Model 3 and 581 Model Y
BYD atto 3 had 448 registration
Basically, pretty much all exports from China

There might be more beyond this for cooperation between BYD and other domestic players

Some speculations about BYD possibly taking over defunct plants from other automakers to increase production like the now defunct Zotye Auto

Something interesting I just found out is that China has even stricter emission standards for cars than Europe.

From left to right: China 5, China 6a (current), Euro 6d (current) and China 6b

From what I've heard, China 6b will be implemented in 2023, or maybe delayed a couple years. The biggest problem with it is that the particulate standards are incredibly high and will require cars to install a particulate filter, which will reduce engine power and cause heating issues for turbos.

Personally I think this is too fast. Chinese auto companies are still uncompetitive in terms of engines and this move could kill a lot of companies, even more than the current slaughter of companies like BAIC, FAW, Dongfeng, Brilliance, JAC. Other than BYD and maybe GAC, all the other companies are not transitioning fast enough to EVs. This move could kill them before they make the transition

Yes, there are a lot of complains in Chinese car community that emission standard 6 is too strict.

Because it reduces competition and increases inefficiency?



Why would they stop Li One production? It's a highly successful car in Chinese market. I was hoping that they would export them to foreign markets.
I meant only the foundry part Like TSMC a pure play one
