Does anyone know how large the Japan + Korea CBU car export market is? If China manages to get even 30% of this market that's at least a couple more giant car plants.
I wonder when we'll see large dedicated export plants like the Hyundai one in Ulsan, with >1 million capacity and having their own port facilities for roro ships

Look who is sitting in the BYD Seal.
Denza sedan under testing. This is one area where bba still dominates. Et7 hasn't made enough of a dent
what is actually going on in China is foreign automakers aren't able to sell out their ICE cars so have to export them abroad
All new NIO E6 to be unveiled on 15th
If you think about it in a round about way the massive success of EV in China resulted in export of pollution.

Pie chart of Australian EV market by sales across the first eight months of 2023:
All Teslas sold in Australia come from the Shanghai factory, so at a production level China totally dominates the supply of EVs to Australia at 84% of the total. I'm surprised to learn that Volvo is the #3 EV brand here, though one would expect that the impending arrival of MG4 will see MG move ahead of the more premium-focused Volvo. The only note of concern here from a China perspective is the poor performance of GWM, which offers the Good Cat here as simply the "Ora". GWM has done some advertising here, but everything I have seen and heard has been about the Jolion small ICE SUV, H6 medium ICE SUV, or the ICE "Ute" -- nothing about the Ora. Perhaps there are supply or dealership integration issues that mean they haven't wanted to advertise the Ora yet, but certainly I think they would sell more here if folks knew it existed.
