China Car Exports Forecast to Slow From ‘Supercharged’ Pace
Growth in Chinese car exports will probably slow down to 10% in 2027 after this year’s surge as international markets take steps to protect their local industries, according to the country’s Passenger Car Association.
The Chinese automotive industry is facing difficulties both domestically and internationally. Amidst tightening tariffs in various countries, export growth is projected to slow to 10% by 2027. Domestic sales also fell 27.3% year-on-year in October, intensifying competition among manufacturers for survival.
After a jump of almost 75% in 2026, Chinese car exports could rise as early as 2027, according to the CCPA. Between customs duties, VAT and reorientation towards the Middle East, the boom is already changing its face.
According to the latest forecast from the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA), under the dual pressure of trade tariffs from Europe and the United States and declining domestic sales, China's automobile exports are expected to slow down significantly in 2027 after experiencing a "super-fast" surge in 2026.
