According to data released by the Japan Association on January 31, Japan's automobile exports in 2023 will be 4.42 million units. This figure is lower than China's previously announced auto exports, which has attracted the attention of Japan's mainstream **.
According to data from the China National Association, China's vehicle exports in 2023 will be 4.91 million units, a year-on-year increase of 579%。Among them, the export of new energy vehicles is 12030,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 776%。
The Japan Economic News **31** said that with new energy vehicles as the engine, China's automobile exports surpassed Japan for the first time and jumped to the first place in the world. Japan has been the world's largest exporter of cars since 2017, and in 2023 that title was taken away by China for the first time.
