Brazil remained the largest destination for Chinese new energy vehicle exports in 2025, supported by strong demand for affordable EVs and expanding charging infrastructure. Belgium continued to serve as a key European gateway, with many vehicles entering broader EU markets through its ports. Mexico strengthened its position as both a major consumer market and a strategic hub linked to North American supply chains.
In Southeast Asia, Thailand and the Philippines benefited from government incentives and growing consumer acceptance of electric mobility. The United Kingdom remained one of the most important developed markets for Chinese EV brands, while Australia continued to see rising demand driven by limited domestic manufacturing and competitive vehicle pricing.
Emerging markets including the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Israel also recorded solid import volumes, highlighting the increasing global diversification of China's new energy vehicle exports. Together, these destinations demonstrate how Chinese automakers are expanding beyond traditional markets and establishing a broader international presence.
