In the book Introduction to the World Economy, the author
repeatedly stated that with the development of science and
technology, various industries are deeply bound together, and if
you want to achieve progress in a certain field, you must work
together and develop together as a whole.
This is particularly evident in the automotive industry, which is
closely related to technological progress and is closely linked to
a number of industries. As the emergence of excellent auto parts
suppliers in China, not only become an important engine for the
development of China's auto market, but also become an important
bridge to promote two-way investment and enhance the level of
international cooperation.
Recently, the United States Automotive News announced the 2024
global auto parts supplier list. Reporter statistics found that
among the top 100 companies, Japan occupies 22 seats, the United
States 18 seats, Germany 16 seats, China 15 seats, South Korea 10
seats, France 4 seats, Spain 3 seats, Canada 3 seats, the United
Kingdom 2 seats, Brazil, Austria, Mexico, Sweden, India,
Switzerland, Ireland 1 seat each.
"The list not only reveals the competitive landscape of the
global auto parts industry, but also profoundly reflects the new
trends in the automotive industry under the electrification
transition and geopolitical challenges." Zhang Xiang, a researcher
at the Automotive Industry Innovation Research Center of North
China University of Technology, said that in the context of the
rapid growth of the global electric vehicle market, parts
suppliers have increased their investment in the field of electric
vehicles to seize market share, which gives suppliers focused on
new energy vehicle parts a better opportunity for
development.
In fact, with the rapid development of China's automobile
industry and the continuous progress of new energy vehicle
technology, the number of Chinese parts companies on the "Top 100
list" is increasing. From 2020 to 2024, the number will be 7, 8,
10, 13 and 15, respectively.
"From this change, it can be seen that the business of Chinese
parts enterprises is continuing to expand, which is consistent
with the trend of 'China gradually leading the intelligent
electric transformation of the global automotive industry'." The
addition of 'new faces' such as Guoxuan High-tech and Sanhua
Automobile Zero this year has added new vitality to China's auto
parts industry." Zhang Xiang analysis said.
At the same time that more new players of Chinese components
joined the list, China's power battery giant Ningde Times climbed
again in the ranking, from the fifth place last year to the fourth
place this year, second only to Bosch, ZF and Magna International,
highlighting China's leading position in the field of electric
vehicle batteries.
According to the latest data released by the China Automotive
Power Battery Industry Innovation Alliance, in the first half of
this year, the cumulative sales of domestic power batteries were
318.1GWh, an increase of 26.6%. Ningde Times ranked first with
93.31GWh of loaded vehicles, and its market share reached 46.38%,
an increase of 2.97%.
