Hence there is little reason for Chinese venders to export; their home market is large enough for them.
If they can compete with foreign auto giants at home, they can compete with them in other countries including the homes of the foreign auto giants.Real_I_Hate_China said:Hence there is little reason for Chinese venders to export; their home market is large enough for them.
Chinese venders are protected by 30%+ auto import duty at home yet Chinese market has become the battleground for foreigners.If they can compete with foreign auto giants at home, they can compete with them in other countries including the homes of the foreign auto giants.
You sure don't know a lot about China's situation.Real_I_Hate_China said:Chinese venders are protected by 30%+ auto import duty at home yet Chinese market has become the battleground for foreigners.
The market you speak of are home ground of foreigners, where they don't pay any import duty and it is the Chinese who has to pay heavy import duty + shipping($1500 per vehicle).
A similar sum to bring in the parts via container.Do you think a Guangzhou built Honda Accord requires $1500 to transport?
10% import duty on parts. This is why a Spark costs more than a QQ, even though actual manufacturing cost of Chery and GM Daewoo is about identical.and import duty? what are you talking about?
Both still cost way more than they do in EU and the US.A China made Audi A6 costs much less expensive than an imported Audi A6.
SInce foreigners have to import 60% of parts to build their cars in China, they are still badly hit by import duty. How do I know? They cost more in China than they do in EU and the US.China pretty much has all the major international auto brands being produced on Chinese soil and do not have to pay any import duty except for those imported parts.
For your information, Guanzhou Honda, 96% of its parts are MADE in CHINA.Real_I_Hate_China said:A similar sum to bring in the parts via container.

For domestic market models only. And even most of those are from Japanese suppliers with factories in China.For your information, Guanzhou Honda, 96% of its parts are MADE in CHINA.
Camry and Accord are built in the US using US assembled parts from Japanese suppliers, yet no one ever argues that American cars could compete with Japanese cars on quality.it doesn't matter if the parts are made by Japanese companies in China, IN CHINA is IN CHINA. you think all ther workers are japanese? you think the factory was entirely built by Japanese? arse. A small number of expats to bring the expertise in (typically 1 per 100 in the company, and even less when you consider sub suppliers, sub contractors etc).
Now I know that you are not for real. You are nothing but a joke character.china should target the best cars in the world, such as trying to make a car that is faster than a FERRARI.
as they say in Korea: east question, west answer.Real_I_Hate_China said:Camry and Accord are built in the US using US assembled parts from Japanese suppliers, yet no one ever argues that American cars could compete with Japanese cars on quality..
