[Brokerage Focus] Nomura indicates that competition in the China Autos market continues to intensify, and expects that the tariff increases on domestic Autos by Europe and the United States will lead to a slowdown in export growth.
Nomura's Analyst for China's Autos and parts industry, Chongxi, stated that competition in the Chinese automotive market continues to intensify. However, both wholesale and retail have recorded good growth so far this year despite a high baseline. Among these, the growth of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) is particularly notable. It is expected that car manufacturers will continue to strengthen their research and development of mass-market models, and inventory levels are also improving year-on-year. Chongxi anticipates that market competition will persist and even with a higher baseline this year, the automotive industry will still record low single-digit growth next year. Regarding corporate export sales, he pointed out that Europe and the USA may impose tariffs on cars produced in China.
