El mercado de coches chino cae y sus marcas se lanzan a exportar

China's car market is collapsing, and local brands are rushing to expand overseas, according to recent reports. In Spain alone, dozens of Chinese automakers have made their mark, but the wave is far from over. Potential newcomers include tech giant Xiaomi and high-end brands like Li Auto and Exlantix, who have yet to make the leap.

Recently launched brands such as Denza, introduced this summer in Spain, are also poised to enter the fray. As these newcomers enter the European market, competition will increase for an industry already crowded with established Chinese players. Companies like BYD, SAIC (owner of MG), and Chery are vying for market share, driven by more than just the lucrative European market - they are also attracted by the falling Chinese market.

In the first half of the year, the Chinese market saw a 20.8% drop compared to the 2025 fiscal year due to weak consumer spending.
