According to a report by BBC Chinese on September 27, Chinese car brands have now made a strong rise in the Middle East market. In just one year, 2024, the export volume reached 1 million units!
This data is very astonishing. In 2019, the number of cars exported to the Middle East was only 150,000. Just six years later, it has increased to 1 million, which is an increase of six times. This amazing growth rate, if continued, will make our cars occupy a significant position in the Middle East market in the future.
The reason for this is that our cars have formed a "dimensional superiority" over other countries' cars in terms of technical functions and assembly quality.
According to the article description, a customer from the Middle East described our cars like this: "People usually think of cars as just a means of transportation, but the Chinese focus on various safety features and entertainment functions," "the design makes the car look very beautiful," and more importantly, "my car has radar in front and back, and all kinds of sensors... you can't find these on Japanese or Korean cars at the same price."
Some people also said, "Chinese cars have high-end configurations comparable to German cars, but at a much more affordable price."
Leather seats, high-end sound systems, large screens, external cameras, panoramic sunroofs, refrigerators, sofas, etc., various configurations have dazzled the eyes of customers in the Middle East market.
Before this, Chinese car brands were not popular in the Middle East market. However, the multi-dimensional "dimensional superiority" of configuration, performance, and price has made Chinese car brands become popular at an unprecedented speed.
At the same time, we have started to build various local factories in the Middle East, making the subsequent supporting facilities of our cars increasingly complete. If the car has problems, maintenance and replacement of parts are now becoming easier and easier. With such a more complete after-sales service, people no longer have any worries about buying Chinese car brands.
That's why now other car brands feel unprecedented pressure. Mercedes, BMW, Volkswagen, Toyota, Hyundai, and other famous car brands previously had considerable shares in the Middle East market, but now they face challenges from Chinese car brands.
The automobile industry is known as the "King of Industries" and "industry within the industry." Because this industry involves a vast and complex supply chain, it has a huge promoting effect on the development of the entire national economy. At the same time, the development of the automobile industry is also very difficult. Those top automobile brands in the world have taken decades or even hundreds of years to gradually develop.
But we never expected that, with the development in recent years, our car brands have become so popular. They are getting more and more love from customers around the world. This proves from the side that our automobile industry has truly developed and has begun to reach the top level globally. Our manufacturing strength has also been raised to an extremely high level!
