The Belgrade Car Show attracts car enthusiasts, manufacturers, traders and everything new in the automotive world every year. In recent years, Chinese car manufacturers have been attracting increasing attention, slowly but surely conquering the global market.
In this text, we will take a look at what the car scene in China looks like today, which brands are worth following and how you can use the website Yoojia.com to explore the range of cars available in China.
Automotive industry in China – a global leader in the making
China has become a dominant player in the automotive industry. While European and Japanese brands once held primacy in the global market, Chinese manufacturers today offer vehicles that can compete in quality, technology and price. Thanks to strong investments in electric vehicles (EV), China is leading innovation in this sector.
Estimates say there are more than 100 car brands in China – from large state-owned and private groups to smaller companies dealing exclusively with electric vehicles and new technologies. This makes it the largest and one of the most dynamic car markets in the world.
