Today, with the increasingly fierce competition in the global auto industry, the rapid development of China's auto exports has undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on the global market. According to data released by the General Administration of Customs of China, in 2023, China's car exports reached a staggering 52210,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 574%，And for the first time, it surpassed Japan to become the world's No. 1
This achievement not only consolidates China's position as the world's largest automobile exporter, but also truly demonstrates the comprehensive strength and international competitiveness of China's automobile industry. In particular, it is worth mentioning thatThe "new three" exports, including electric manned vehicles, exceeded the trillion yuan mark for the first timeThis milestone adds strong momentum to China's exports and demonstrates China's leadership in the field of new energy vehicles.
Even more striking is thatBYDAs a representative of Chinese car brands, sales of pure electric passenger cars in the fourth quarter of 2023For the first time, it surpassed Tesla, the world's leading electric car manufacturerto become the world's largest seller of electric vehicles. In 2022, BYD's pure electric model sales will be 9110,000 units, Tesla's 1.31 million units, a difference of about 460,000 units, and the gap narrows to about 240,000 units in 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2023, BYD's pure electric vehicle sales exceeded 520,000 units, surpassing Tesla. This feat is not only a strong proof of BYD's own brand strength and technological innovation capabilities, but also a concentrated demonstration of the overall strength of China's new energy vehicle industry.

China's new energy vehicles have maintained a booming momentum in production and sales, ranking first in the world for nine consecutive yearsThe consolidation of this position is due to the strong policy support of China and the continuous growth of market demand. In 2023, the production and sales of new energy vehicles will be 95870,000 and 94950,000 units, an increase of 358% and 379%, with a market share of 316%, up from 5 in the same period last year9 percentage points. This data is not the same as only inIn 2017, the production and sales of new energy vehicles in China were less than 800,000 unitsThe situation is in stark contrast, which fully reflects the rapid development of China's new energy vehicle industry and the significant improvement in market acceptance.
The containment strategies of the United States and other countries, including technological blockades and restrictions, have not actually hindered the progress of China's auto industry and even the broader Chinese manufacturing industry。On the contrary, this external pressure has become a catalyst for China to accelerate independent innovation and promote industrial upgrading. China has not only achieved a major technological breakthrough in the field of new energy vehicles, but also has shown strong development potential in cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent driving and Internet of Vehicles. Behind these achievements is China's huge market demand, well-established industrial chain system, and continuous policy support and investment-driven.
At this glorious moment, every Chinese has reason to be proud and proud of their country. This achievement of China's automobile industry is not only the best proof of China's intelligent manufacturing ability, but also the highest praise for the hard work, wisdom, fearlessness and innovative spirit of the Chinese people. In the future, China's auto industry will continue to work with outstanding enterprises in the industry to maintain high-quality development, continuously promote technological innovation, strengthen international cooperation, and provide more high-quality choices for global consumers. Facing the future, we have full confidence and determination to write more brilliant chapters on the new journey.
