Comments from a FAW Audi executive have pushed a familiar question back into China's auto debate: should consumer-grade chips be used in vehicles, or should carmakers hold the line on automotive-grade standards?
China's auto industry has become the world's largest new-energy vehicle battleground, but the industry's sprint is leaving many workers under pressure.
China's June vehicle sales reveal an uncomfortable truth. Even as regulators and industry groups warn against destructive price competition, the results of the latest price-war round are visible in automakers' monthly numbers.
The phrase sounds contradictory: a zero-mileage used car. Yet the practice has become familiar enough in parts of China's auto market to draw attention from regulators, manufacturers and dealers.
China's car market is entering a harsher phase. In 2025, more new-energy start-ups are likely to face operating crises, while large automotive groups will continue merging internal brands to reduce waste and sharpen focus.
