Global automakers like General Motors, Volkswagen, Honda, Toyota, and BMW are renewing and extending their joint ventures in China for 20 years or more, shifting focus to local R&D, EVs, and using China as a hub for global exports amid rising domestic brand competition.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Global automakers have committed to China as a core R&D and manufacturing hub beyond sales. You need to prioritise local partnerships and tailor products to Chinese consumers or risk losing relevance to domestic brands.
