People's sorrows and joys are not shared.
This statement also applies to the automotive industry this year.
Chip price hikes, memory price hikes, precious metal price hikes...The three heavy mountains press the car manufacturers until they can't catch their breath.
The profit margin of complete vehicle manufacturing has dropped toa historical low of 1.5%,even lower than bank fixed deposits.
In contrast, neighbors CATL are experiencing an unprecedented performance explosion.
In the first half of this year, CATLreported revenue of 276.9 billion yuan,a year-on-year increase of 54.8%.What makes people even more envious isa net profit of over 43 billion yuananda profit margin of 15.6%.

After comparison, an old topic is brought up again:
Are car manufacturers working for battery factories? Why does CATL make money?
Actually, the answer lies in a very Chinese business logic - "Win hearts and minds through virtue". This is not empty emotion, but hard core strength in every link of the industry chain.
Today, we will discuss CATL using the semi-annual financial report.
01. Supply Chain System Must Withstand Pressure
In 2022, new energy vehicle sales exploded, but lithium mining couldn't keep up, leading to severe shortage. Battery-grade lithium carbonate reached a historical high of 550,000 yuan/ton;procurement prices shot up like rockets.
At that time, some owners complained:"If the car breaks, changing a battery might be more expensive than the residual value!"

This year, the rapidly rising AI industry not only boosted chips and memory, but also made energy storage batteries, which provide stable power, become a rigid standard for computing power systems.
Consequently, car manufacturers in the manufacturing sector had to fight directly with high-profit tech companies,using high prices to snatch battery capacity.
Combined with the levy of battery consumption tax on Sept 1 this year, battery factories producing in advance, and continuous growth in NEV production and sales, battery-grade lithium carbonate once soared from a low of 58,000 yuan/ton last year to nearly 200,000 yuan/ton,more than 3 times the price!

The new round of battery price hikes,made CATL the target of public criticism once again.
But CATL really shouldn't carry this burden.
According to financial report data, in the first half of this year, CATL battery unit price was about 0.56 yuan/Wh,basically flat with last year.However, the gross profit margin of power battery businesswas 20.6%,down 1.7 percentage points year-on-year, a new low since 2024.
This means,CATL did not raise prices opportunistically, instead yielding part of the profit,actively "blocking bullets" for car manufacturers.

The reason CATL can withstand pressure is partly because since 2021, it has participated in the operation of raw materials like lithium, nickel, cobalt, phosphorus and related industries through self-construction, equity participation, joint ventures, acquisitions, and other methods,
Apart from a few domestic mines and salt lakes, CATL has also made industrial layouts in North America, Congo, Indonesia, Bolivia and other countries and regions,and useslong-term supply agreementsto hedge against the impact of raw material fluctuations on costs.
Taking the cooperation between CATL and Australia's Pilbara Minerals and Indonesian nickel giant ANTAM,supply prices and real-time market prices are decoupled,determined half a year or even a year in advance.

On the other hand, the effectiveness of this strategy of backward pressure on upstream is inseparable from a key factor:
Shipment volume.
In the first half of this year, CATL's total battery capacity was 498GWh,capacity utilization rate 94.86%,leading other battery manufacturers by a landslide.
Global market share of 40.2%, up 2.2 percentage points compared to last year,ranking first globally for 9 consecutive years.
For upstream, this means stable high-value orders and large-scale shipments;
For thecapital-intensivebattery industry, this means fixed costs of production, equipment, and labor can be fully amortized, and no impairment for idle production lines needs to be accrued.
For the same battery selling price of 0.56 yuan/Wh,CATL's cost might be only 0.44 yuan;for battery manufacturers with 60% capacity utilization, the cost might be 0.52 yuan.

Thisflexible profit margin,not only became the confidence for CATL to withstand pressure, but also "saved the day" for car manufacturers who urgently need supply chain support and cost control.
In the first half of this year, CATL's domestic market share has approached the high of 50%.
For every 2 cars sold, 1 uses CATL!

Taking the initiative to withstand upstream cost pressure during industry cyclical fluctuations and not transferring risks to downstream car manufacturers,this responsibility to bear pressure is the first layer of confidence for "winning hearts and minds through virtue"."Winning hearts and minds through virtue" is not enough.
So, why do car manufacturers choose CATL? Is it really just because prices and capacity are stable?
02. Battery Safety Relies on Strength
Only 7 months into this year, there have already been 3 recall-related events triggered by batch quality issues in power batteries.
In users' eyes, the primary responsible party is not the battery manufacturer, but thecar manufacturer they directly interact with.
For car manufacturers, this will quickly causea crisis of trust.The blow to sales and even the brand is devastating.
To reduce power battery failures, we cannot rely solely onvehicle-end softwaremonitoring, temperature control, and early warning, nor can we rely on post-event tracing and accountability, but need battery manufacturers inR&D and production phases,to build a solid foundation.
In plain terms, price stability is just the basic foundation.When car manufacturers choose battery suppliers,the real weakness lies in quality and safety.

In the electrochemical system, micrometer-level defects, one-in-a-million impurities, millivolt-level voltage fluctuations... These process deviations imperceptible to ordinary people can ultimately lead to internal resistance differentiation, temperature rise differences, and self-discharge imbalance constantly accumulating, eventually triggering the butterfly effect, causing irreversible huge losses.
What truly determines the safety and reliability of new energy vehicles over a lifecycle of hundreds of thousands of kilometers is not paper parameters like energy density and charging speed, butthe production consistency of hundreds of cells within the battery pack.
AndSafety brought by quality is exactly where CATL's greatest value lies.

Before leaving the factory, CATL's cells have a very strict hard indicator, known in the industry asPPB— for every 1 billion cells produced, less than 1 is allowed to have defects, 3 orders of magnitude lower than the industry average.
Even large-scale energy storage stations composed of millions of series-parallel connected cells will not trigger system-level safety accidents due to battery quality issues.
But putting effort only at the production end is not enough.
What many people don't know is that CATL has an independent department dedicated to battery safety, led personally by Zeng Yuqun, with over 500 R&D staff, internally called"the Adversarial Team".

Looking at the literal meaning, many would think this is a technical task force of CATL targeting competitor companies.
But in reality,what they fight is not others, but themselves:
"Will CATL's new technology or new products have problems under certain conditions? How big is the problem? Will it affect user life safety? Will it cause a trust crisis for car manufacturers?"
Using this kind of self-doubt, self-evidence, and self-analysis to ensure that even after the battery goes on the market, it can withstand extreme working conditions.
Here, there is also a little-known detail.
Even for niche models likePolestar 2,after a scrape, bottoming out, or replacing the entire battery pack, CATL will still take the damaged battery pack back fordisassembly and research.

On one hand, it is to self-check design defects and be responsible for other users of the same car model;on the other hand, it is to provide practical cases for subsequent R&D in the field ofbattery safety.
Thisattitude of wanting to do a little more on top of the safety bottom lineis something other battery manufacturers do not possess and is a unique competitiveness of CATL.
For this reason, the popular high-end large 6-seaters domestically, NIO ES8, AITO M9, Zeekr 9X, Li Auto L9, are all CATL series;
Including a list of global luxury brands such as Porsche, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Lotus, Volvo, are also using CATL.
Good cars use CATL, which has become an industry consensus.

But in the commercial world of batteries,quality and safety should not be divided by price segments; it should be a basic guarantee.
So even on pure electric cars worth tens of thousands of yuan, CATL's presence can be seen in large quantities.
Even Geely Xingyuan worth tens of thousands of yuan, adoptsCATL cells across the entire series.Relying on advantages in design, space, intelligence, and safety, it delivered over 800,000 units in 664 days since launch, and won the single-car sales champion for the past two years.
This once again verifies that only by earnestly making cars and ensuring safety and quality can one gain the joint recognition of the industry and users.
Carving safety into every detail of the production process, backing up user travel safety and car manufacturer brand reputation, this persistence in integrity is the second layer core of "winning hearts and minds through virtue".
03. The Automotive Industry Lacks Steadfastness
In an era where price cuts are almost instinctive,the steadfastness to resist the temptation of "bleeding involution" has instead become a scarce ability. Holding 372 billion yuan in cash and not starting a price war is much harder than starting one."Winning hearts and minds through virtue" is not enough.
In the past two years, the two terms frequently mentioned in the industry are "Anti-Involution" and "High-Quality Development".
Perhaps these two words are too formal, let's change the wording—"
There is no true "good goods at a low price" in the automotive industry; ultimately, it must return to the business logic of "you get what you pay for".

Unrestrained price wars will only fill the entire market with low-quality products, engulfing everyone involved, pushing the fast-moving train of new energy towards the abyss.
At this time, responsible leading enterprises need to stand up more,provide value through technology and service,rather than taking the whole industry to compete on price to the death.
In the first half of this year, CATLR&D investmentwas 11.4 billion yuan,a year-on-year increase of 12.7%;R&D personnel exceeded 20,000.

What does this concept mean?
CATL's R&D spending over half a year is not only more than the profits of some battery manufacturers, but also exceeds the full-year R&D investment of "Wei Xiao Li" (NIO, XPeng, Li Auto) from last year,on the same level as car manufacturers selling millions annually like SAIC and Geely.
Even looking globally, the automotive groups that can stabilize CATL are no more than a dozen.

It is worth noting that car manufacturers need to self-develop and pre-research new technologies, covering multiple fields such as three-electric systems, engines/transmissions, chassis, electronic/electrical architecture, cockpits, bodies, and assisted driving;batteries are just one of them.
From this perspective, CATL is more like "concentrating resources to do big things",helping car manufacturers take over the heavy responsibility of battery R&D with the strongest professionalism and most complex system,avoiding car manufacturers' repeated investments and resource waste at the frontend.

In this process, CATL also naturally becamea price anchor for high quality.
First, the big brother stands at the front with a 20% high gross margin, only then do the second-tier battery manufacturers behind have room to survive with 15-18% gross margins.
If CATL were to take out over 300 billion yuan in cash reserves to fight a price war, all industry profits would be wiped out instantly.
In the short term, indeed car manufacturer procurement prices were lower and users bought cars cheaper; everyone got a benefit, but it was actually exchanged by breaking industry bottom lines and abandoning safety redundancy.
Long-term low profit margins will further discourage the enthusiasm for R&D.As innovative small and medium enterprises go bankrupt one after another,the industry will become a pool of stagnant water,welcoming an absolute monopoly lacking competition.

Nowadays, the reason why the complete vehicle manufacturing industry in China and Europe has been rolled into a situation with no winners is precisely becauseno car manufacturer has the absolute charismato lead everyone to resist the industry's spontaneous bottomless competition;
It is precisely because competition is too fierce that no car manufacturer can maintain its market share while stabilizing prices.
This led everyone to struggle with costs, efficiency, services, and industry chain relationships in the mud, trying to survive in the cracks.The most important design, tuning, quality control, and brand concepts intended to be expressed, instead became secondary.

This situation against the wind requires one or a few star enterprises to rush to the front, not to snatch the cake, butto make the cake bigger.
Holding hundreds of billions in cash but not initiating vicious price wars, using continuous technology investments to support the entire industry upward; this steadfastness in leading the way is the third layer of "winning hearts and minds through virtue".
04. Final Words
In the current Chinese automotive market,we never lack players who can fight price wars, nor lack "king of cost-performance" with stacked configurations.
What is truly scarce is exactly this steadfastness — some are willing to withstand the temptation of short-term profits, sticking to the basic foundation of safety and quality; some are willing to be the industry's value anchor, leading upstream and downstream to make the cake bigger, rather than fighting until everyone loses in the stock market.
In the final analysis, "winning hearts and minds through virtue" in the new energy industry has never been a floating slogan.
It is the responsibility to stabilize prices when raw materials soar, the persistence to fight for safety among billions of cells, and more so, the generosity of staying at the top while leaving enough room for the industry to survive.

A company's true influence has never come from the monopoly status gained by squeezing peers, but from its own shoulders,shouldering risks, holding the bottom line, and leading the entire industry to higher ground.
I sincerely hope that more such enterprises will emerge in the Chinese automotive industry; I also hope that meaningless involution and price wars will come to an end sooner.

【Auto Market Expert】BYD sold 419,211 units in July, a year-on-year increase of 21.76%. Cumulative sales from January to July reached 2,227,722 units.
Total volume hit a new high again. Structural changes are more noteworthy than total volume: Overseas markets are becoming the largest growth engine, while the domestic market is shifting from rapid expansion to refined cultivation.

Dynasty + Ocean: 350,178 units. Absolute mainstay, accounting for over 80%. Qin, Song, Dolphin, Seagull have secured a solid share in the 100,000-200,000 RMB range. With a massive base, the growth rate naturally slowed—this is a stage any major product goes through after maturation. More importantly, the foundation remains solid, and competitive barriers stay firm.
Fang Cheng Bao: 41,213 units, a year-on-year increase of 190.6%, and a month-on-month increase of 15.7%. Fastest growth rate within BYD. Leopard 5 and Leopard 8 Super Fast Charging versions established themselves in the 300,000-500,000 RMB range, indicating that premiumization is not about stacking specs to compete on price, but about product strength. What does monthly sales of 40,000+ mean in the market above 300,000? NIO's main brand monthly sales are about 10,000, Li Auto about 30,000—Fang Cheng Bao achieved the combined volume of both with just one brand.
Denza: 19,196 units, a year-on-year increase of 68.8%. D9 firmly holds the top spot in MPV sales, Z9GT contributes steadily in the coupe market. Z9S started pre-sales today; after adding the sedan line, the product matrix is more complete.
Yangwang: 485 units. Nearly 500 units sold monthly at the million-level price point, comparable to Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series. Yangwang is not about volume; it is a technology flagship, endorsing brand upward movement.
Overseas: 180,000 units, growth rate 124%Overseas sales in July reached 179,841 units, a year-on-year increase of 124.3%. Cumulative overseas sales from January to July were 969,208 units; the full year is likely to exceed 1.5 million units.
It's not just numbers rising; the model is upgrading too. The Thailand factory with an annual capacity of 150,000 units is already in production, the Brazil factory is under construction, and the Uzbekistan factory is operational—from exporting complete vehicles to local manufacturing, this step determines whether overseas growth can continue. In overseas markets, BYD is not just selling cars; it is building factories, channels, and brand awareness.
Global car sales in July were about 7 million units, with BYD accounting for around 6%. There is huge room for improvement overseas—not a one or two-year matter, but a ten to twenty-year growth track.

July domestic sales were about 240,000 units. Behind this number is the new normal for the domestic new energy vehicle market—penetration rate has exceeded 60%, the high-growth dividend period is transitioning to a stock competition period.
For BYD, this is not a challenge, but an industry rule. The market share in the 100,000-200,000 RMB range is already high, and marginal expansion space naturally narrows. The domestic strategy is also adjusting: not pursuing further significant share increases, but securing the foundation through new products (Qin MAX, Seal 08) and new technologies (Second-generation Blade Battery, Super Fast Charging), while allocating more resources to overseas markets and premiumization.
Simply put: domestically shifting from grabbing territory to holding ground, overseas shifting from testing waters to aggressive offense.

Three stages are becoming clearer.
Stage 1 "Domestic Competition King" (2021-2023): Blade Battery and DM-i swept the 100,000-200,000 RMB market. Stage 2 "Brand Upward" (2024-2025): Denza, Fang Cheng Bao, Yangwang targeting the premium sector, basically completed. Stage 3 "Global Expansion" (2026-Present): Overseas share rises rapidly, moving from "Chinese BYD" to "World BYD".
Fang Cheng Bao monthly sales broke 40,000, overseas monthly sales approached 180,000—these numbers were unthinkable a year ago. Stage 2 is concluding, Stage 3 is accelerating.
Next highlight: When will overseas monthly sales exceed domestic? With the current growth rate difference, this might be seen in the fourth quarter of this year.

When we see overseas pickup modifications or designs, we always sigh, why haven't domestic pickup companies officially launched these cars? Actually, domestic car companies also have a deep understanding of pickup modifications, but constrained by various regulations, many very interesting models cannot be mass-produced, which is indeed a pity. However, I believe that with the progress and iteration of regulations, these types of vehicles will eventually gain recognition from the management and be legally allowed on the road. So today let's take a look at what very interesting but not mass-produced pickup products there are domestically.

3 Types of 6-Wheel Pickups:
BJ80 6x6 Pickup Version, Wuling Hongguang MINI EV 6-Wheel Pickup, Great Wall Cannon CYBERP!CKUP Chaojing Co-Creation Edition
In the past when domestic pickups were not blooming everywhere, when we saw high-definition large pictures of those overseas high-performance cars, Mercedes-Benz 6x6 often appeared. This pickup almost became the ultimate dream model for many people, little did we know that multiple 6x6 pickup products had also appeared in our country.
The earliest one is the BJ80 6x6 pickup from Beijing Automotive Group at that time. At the 2018 Beijing Auto Show, BAIC launched this tall and mighty pickup built on the BJ80. It added a rear axle on the original car basis, and the rear part was changed to an open cargo box style, becoming a 6-wheel pickup. The power part adopts a plug-in hybrid system. The last axle is driven by a motor, but there is also a drive shaft from the middle axle to the last axle. Moreover, all wheels of this car used portal axles to increase ground clearance. The rear two axles use a helical spring multi-link structure. The car attracted many people's attention at the auto show scene at that time, but based on the market situation at the time, it was destined to be just for display purposes and cannot be mass-produced.




At the 2020 Chengdu Auto Show, another 6x6 pickup product appeared, and this car was even less likely to be mass-produced than the previously introduced BJ80 6x6. It is the Wuling Hongguang MINI EV Special Edition. This is because Wuling Hongguang MINI EV was sold extremely hotly that year, it is an absolute internet-famous product. So Wuling took advantage of the heat and jointly launched this 6-wheel heavily modified pickup with a modifier, used for promotion and attraction at the auto show.



This small 6-wheel pickup added a cargo box design on the original car basis, and to carry this cargo box, an axle was added directly to the rear, forming the form of a 6-wheel pickup. From the chassis form, this car still retains the original drive form, "middle axle" motor drive. With such a small volume and load capacity, it is absolutely impossible to mass-produce.

The most hopeful mass production one is the Great Wall Cannon 6x6 model CYBERP!CKUP co-created with Chaojing launched by Great Wall Cannon at the 2023 Shanghai Auto Show. This car is said to come from the first Chinese 6X6 super off-road platform built by Great Wall, which will break the situation of foreign enterprises dominating 6x6. This car is equipped with a 3.0T V6+9HAT hybrid system, outputting 260kW/500N・m, pure electric range 110km (CLTC), comprehensive fuel consumption 8.5L/100km. In terms of off-road configuration, standard equipment includes 5 electronic differential locks, all-terrain adaptive system can realize 8 road conditions, and equipped with 33-inch Cooper AT3 tires. Because it is a hybrid model, considering battery safety, the battery group is 750mm off the ground to prevent collision, and the vehicle can also achieve 3.3kW external discharge to meet camping power consumption.



Whether looking from the publicity direction, or from the so transparent release of specific vehicle parameters, Great Wall obviously intended to mass-produce it; but to this day there is no specific mass production news, which is bound to make people regret.
Great Wall Cannon Hypercar Pickup
As the leader of domestic pickups, Great Wall Pickup is absolutely all-around in "showcasing creativity". Previously we introduced 6-wheel pickups, and at the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show, a Great Wall Cannon Hypercar Pickup was also launched. So Great Wall Pickup has not only products in the "off-road performance direction", but also works in the "track performance direction".

This Hypercar Pickup also had a naming activity at that time, expected to be listed in the "Bullet" series. The car has an ultra-wide widebody kit, and the body height is reduced, presenting a low-slung style overall. This modification style has relatively faithful fans in Thailand, and its appearance in China is the top pickup modification. The engine hood middle part rises, with air intake holes. The front bar, wheel arches, side skirts, and rear are equipped with widebody kits, making the horizontal visual of the whole car look very wide. Front and rear wheels also adopted the multi-spoke style commonly used in performance cars, matched with 285/40R22 tires, and the front wheels have a slight outward angle, improving the cornering stability of the whole vehicle.


The rear cargo box of the vehicle has a sports roll cage, and there is also a spoiler commonly used in performance cars on the top and above the tailgate, plus a huge diffuser in the middle of the rear bar, giving the whole car better aerodynamic structure and also more aesthetically pleasing. The bottom of the cargo box has a huge dual-side dual-out exhaust, looking full of performance. If this car can be mass-produced, it will definitely be a very personalized product in the performance car field, and will definitely expand influence, bringing pickups into the market of track performance cars.


Jiangxi Isuzu Fulfiller (D-MAX Modified Crawler Vehicle)
In addition to domestic brands, joint-venture pickups have also launched some interesting products in China. D-MAX has always been a favorite of many off-road players. Even if the manufacturer does not launch modified cars, there are also many experts in the civilian sector modifying D-MAX that look very good. But the manufacturer still wants to build a brand image in terms of off-road, so D-MAX modified cars can often be seen at auto shows.

At the 2020 Chengdu Auto Show, Jiangxi Isuzu displayed a D-MAX track vehicle, named Fulfiller. The upper part of the whole vehicle basically has no big change, the shape still retains the factory design. A luggage rack was added to the roof, a gantry was added to the rear, and there is a snorkel on the right, very much off-road style. The place that makes it more "wild" is mainly the lower part.


The tire part was directly changed to tracks, increasing the contact area with the road surface, making the vehicle less prone to getting stuck. The track wheels are directly connected on the factory flange, with a huge gear shape driving the tracks to roll. The fixing device of the tracks is connected to the suspension. Such a design should have greater usage value in mud and snow, and the visual impact is also comparable to 6-wheel pickups. If this pickup can really be mass-produced, then this car should be often seen galloping in the winter of the northern grasslands.

Summary:
It is not that domestic enterprises do not have innovation and creativity awareness, from the above models, it can be seen that pickups still have huge potential in modification, and modifications in all directions can extend imaginative schemes. But due to restrictions in various aspects, it led to these cars not being able to go from the showroom to mass production, which is also a very regrettable thing. Do you think these pickups are interesting? Welcome to discuss with us in the comments section.

Robotaxi 的全球化竞赛,正进入真正意义上的「深水区」。
全球化能力,本质取决于 Robotaxi 是否具备跨交通体系的迁移能力。
尤其是左舵市场打磨成熟的技术栈,能否在右舵市场完成规则重构与场景适配?这是所有玩家的一道必答题。
这一次,中国无人驾驶玩家先迈出了关键一步。
在香港,萝卜快跑完成全球首个右舵左行环境下的「全无人」Robotaxi 测试,首次实现右舵市场去安全员化,这是「0 到 1」的破冰。
另一项里程碑式突破,在伦敦。
全球前两大的出行巨头 Lyft 与 Uber,同时宣布与萝卜快跑合作,在伦敦启动公开道路测试。
伦敦以极端天气、狭窄巷道和复杂环岛著称,代表右舵市场的最高难度关卡,同样,它也代表着右舵市场的「兵家必争之地」。
如今,伦敦街头同时出现两个名字:萝卜快跑与 Waymo。
在自动驾驶最严苛的实战考场,中美头部 Robotaxi 玩家第一次真正站在同一把标尺下正面对决。
与此同时,右舵「无人化」的突破,叠加伦敦战场的同台对垒,也意味着,中国无人驾驶正在把「技术验证」的全球化竞争,拉入「跨体系实战」的全新维度。
01、右舵市场,注定是一场硬仗
过去十年,自动驾驶经历了从技术路线之争到量产落地竞赛的演进,跑在最前面的始终是中美两国的 Robotaxi 玩家。
全球最大的两个左舵市场,天然构成了无人驾驶最肥沃的实验场。
美国提供了开阔的郊区道路、相对统一的交通规则,以及率先松绑的监管环境。
中国则贡献了全球最复杂的城市混合交通流,如密集的人口、大量的两轮车、随机性极强的行人行为。
所以,左舵市场形成了一个先发优势的正循环,高质量路测数据带来更快的算法迭代,以及更成熟的商业化落地。
而右舵市场,如英国、日本、澳大利亚等国家,以及中国香港等地区,在过去很长一段时间里,并没有足够体量的本土自动驾驶企业出现,自然缺乏左舵市场这般产业密度和推进节奏。
直到全球化成为头部玩家的核心命题后,右舵市场就从被忽略的角落,转变成了必须拿下的战略要地。
然而,从左舵市场向右舵市场的延伸,远非简单的镜像复制。
核心难题在于,打破左舵技术栈的「思维惯性」,使之与右舵交通规则完成系统级对齐。
主流自动驾驶系统的感知模型、高精地图坐标系、定位系统,都是以左舵驾驶习惯为底层假设进行开发的,右舵市场本质上可以通用,但是一旦到预测、决策与规划逻辑环节,就不是一个「开关切换」就能解决的问题了。
最直观的例子就是环岛。
左舵市场的环岛是逆时针绕行,车辆需要让行左侧来车;右舵市场则是顺时针绕行,让行方向完全相反,右侧来车拥有优先权。
这就使得,让行逻辑必须要重写,系统需要重新学习右舵环境下车辆驶入环岛的让行时间窗口,这不仅涉及对向车流的轨迹预测,还要考虑驾驶习惯的地域差异。
比如香港的螺旋式环岛,就要求车辆在进入前就选对车道,入口处就决定了出口方向,没有中途调整的空间。
这也意味着,从左舵向右舵的跨越,必然伴随一段技术脱敏期。

而萝卜快跑选择香港为右舵市场第一站,目的就是先在这把技术验证跑透,再向更难的市场发起冲击。
严格意义上,右舵市场的真正战场是伦敦。
这座城市作为近代左行交通规则的策源地,催生了成熟的右舵汽车体系,也成为全球右舵交通范式的起点。
伦敦辐射右舵市场,代表着整个右舵 Robotaxi 的战略起点。
战略价值高的背面是攻克难度大,这座城市恰恰是右舵市场中最难啃的「硬骨头」。
伦敦本身的城市交通环境对于无人驾驶并不友好,受中世纪路网规划制约,道路空间局促、街巷纵横交错,机动车、非机动车、行人混行交织;叠加持续较高的交通流量,车道宽度起伏多变,大量不规则合流、分岔路段,形成高密度复杂动态场景。
但另一种意义上,右舵市场的技术复杂性与城市环境严苛度,也让伦敦天然构筑起极高的准入壁垒,这是高手才能进入的战场。
2、伦敦擂台:萝卜快跑与 Waymo 的「高手局」
伦敦这场高手局,真正意义上同台对垒的,只有萝卜快跑和 Waymo。

尽管本地玩家 Wayve 在此扎根已久,商业化落地始终步履蹒跚,量产经验依然是零。
Waymo 去年底进场,推进节奏还算稳定。目前仍处于部署测试车阶段,并配备人类安全驾驶员,仅限员工乘坐。运营计划统一等待交通部最终批准。
而萝卜快跑虽然稍晚入场,但出场方式并不低调。它是全球头部出行平台押注的「技术合伙人」。
没错,全球排名前二的主流出行平台,Uber 与 Lyft,都选择与中国 Robotaxi 玩家合作,这在行业里并不多见。
两大平台同时锚定一家中国玩家,背后是对其技术栈成熟度与商业化落地能力的双重认可。
但带来的收益显而易见,对比 Waymo 需要依靠自有 APP 重新推广,萝卜快跑可以借助 Uber 和 Lyft 成熟的运营网络与用户基础,大幅缩短市场导入周期,越过出行平台最烧钱的「冷启动」阶段,将精力集中在运营优化和体验打磨上。
实际上,除了运营体系的构建,萝卜快跑在伦敦的落子路径,与 Waymo 本就有着截然不同的逻辑。
如果说 Waymo 进入伦敦的路径是典型的「常规打法」。先做数据采集,了解路况;再派安全员上车进行小规模测试,验证系统在陌生环境中的表现;确认安全基线后,才有可能逐步推进到全无人。
萝卜快跑则是高阶打法,没有选择在伦敦从零开始「补课」,而是先在香港这座同样右舵、同样高难度的城市,先完成「模拟考」,再开始伦敦这场「大考」。

香港与伦敦之间不只是「都靠左行驶」的浅层共性,两座城市同样道路狭窄、人口密集、拥有特殊环岛,同样是国际化的高监管门槛市场。在香港取得的运营许可和实际路测数据,天然具备向伦敦迁移的可信度与合规说服力。
而过去一年多时间,萝卜快跑的「模拟考」成绩不错,在香港完成了五次扩区,并实现了有安全员到全无人的进阶突破。
重点是,这是全球范围内首次在右舵市场实现公开道路全无人落地,比 Waymo 更早。
由此,技术验证的提前完成、右舵全无人的先发优势,再加上两大出行平台的流量入口,这些筹码叠加在一起,已经让萝卜快跑在这场擂台赛中占据了不容忽视的起跑位置。
03、进击「右舵市场」,抢滩高价值版图
萝卜快跑、Waymo 对垒伦敦的根本目的,都是借伦敦这一「桥头堡」辐射整个右舵市场。
右舵市场不仅代表着左舵市场的空缺面,更大价值在于其结构性版图。
一方面,70 余个国家和地区采用右舵驾驶,覆盖约 20 亿人口,全球右舵车年销量维持在 1700 万至 1800 万辆区间,占全球汽车市场约四分之一的份额。
另一方面,右舵市场囊括英国、日本、澳大利亚、新加坡等发达经济体,这些出行市场城市密度高、出行距离短、打车客单价高,形成了优于左舵市场的 Robotaxi 商业模型基础。
以伦敦为例,算一笔账。
德意志银行报告数据显示,全球各城市 5 公里出租车行程平均费用排行中,伦敦以约合人民币 160 元位列全球第五,旧金山排名第 24。
折算到单公里价格,伦敦是旧金山的 1.6 倍;
对比中国网约车市场 1.5 至 2.5 元/公里的费用区间,伦敦的单公里出行成本与中国存在十余倍的差距。
客单价的量级差异,直接决定了盈亏平衡周期的长短。
右舵发达市场所具备的高客单价、高密度、高需求与成熟监管,恰恰是 Robotaxi 从「技术可行」走向「商业可持续」的关键拼图。
与左舵市场以规模换利润的逻辑不同,这里天然拥有更短的盈亏周期和更厚的利润缓冲带。
这也解释了为什么萝卜快跑在完成左舵市场的规模化验证后,必须要向右舵市场这一高价值版图进击。
从中可以窥见三层意义:
第一,萝卜快跑树立了一个中国无人驾驶打开全球化局面的范本。
先在香港完成右舵体系的「制度磨合」与「技术验证」,再以伦敦为跳板进入欧洲核心出行市场。
这条渐进式路线绕开了直接进入英国市场的高墙,用分步验证的方式降低了全球化扩张的成本与风险。
第二,左右舵市场组合的全球化版图逐步完整。
左舵市场基于「一城一策」策略稳步推进的同时,右舵市场同步打开。
一旦在香港和伦敦跑通商业闭环,这套模型即可向澳大利亚、新加坡、日本等右舵市场批量复制。
第三,中国无人驾驶正在改写全球 Robotaxi 竞赛格局。
过去全球 Robotaxi 的竞赛,本质上是左舵市场内部的排位赛。中国玩家、美国玩家在各跑各的赛道,各讲各的故事。
而当萝卜快跑带着香港全无人经验驶入伦敦,与 Waymo 站在同一条街道上时,这场竞赛从此不再有「主场」与「客场」之分,只有同一套标准下的真实运营表现。
中国无人驾驶的全球化,不再是「走出去」的叙事,而是直接进入全球最难考场、与最强对手同台竞技的能力证明。
现在,左舵的技术积累与右舵的商业价值在伦敦交汇后,这场关于未来出行主导权的较量,才算正式开始。

Every best-selling model hides a "winning strategy" behind it.

Relying on a versatile product matrix featuring three powertrains in one vehicle, the Great Wall Ora 5 has gained recognition from numerous consumers in domestic and international markets.

2021年全年,中國汽車出口345億美元。五年後的今天,僅2026年上半年,這個數字就達到了918億美元,逼近千億美元大關。
從345億到半年918億,中國汽車只用五年時間便走完了許多國家數十年的路程。
汽車改寫中國出口基因
海關總署數據顯示,2026年1至6月,中國商品貿易出口總額為21258億美元,同比增長17%。其中汽車整車出口918億美元,同比大幅增長54%;6月單月出口182億美元,同比增幅升至70%。

在量的維度上,中國汽車的成就依舊亮眼:中汽協統計顯示,上半年汽車出口509.6萬輛,同比增長65.3%,半年度出口量歷史上首次突破500萬輛大關。6月單月出口103.7萬輛,同比增長75.1%,單月出口量首次突破百萬輛。
整體出口增速17%,汽車出口增速54%——接近三倍的"剪刀差"背後,是中國出口引擎正在發生的深刻切換。乘聯會副秘書長崔東樹將這種變化概括為:"汽車出口近幾年表現極其優秀,從2021年的345億美元上升到2024年的1174億美元,形成了爆發增長態勢。"2025年全年達到1424億美元。而2026年僅上半年已達918億美元,全年突破1500億美元幾無懸念。

真正改寫出口格局的,不只是汽車一個品類。海關數據顯示,上半年鋰電池出口487億美元,同比增長43%;太陽能電池出口329億美元,同比增長24%。"新三樣"合計出口同比增加51.6%至1183.5億美元。三者之中,電動汽車增速最高,上半年累計出口521億美元,同比增加75.1%。中國汽車"依托新能源先發優勢和智能化創新實力,不僅實現了出口規模的躍升,更與人工智能深度融合,成為推動全球汽車研發與設計創新的重要力量。
從服裝、家電到汽車、鋰電池、太陽能電池,中國出口的"主力陣容"正在被重新定義。而汽車,無疑是這支新陣容裡的絕對核心。
誰在驅動這場"狂飆"?
量額齊增的數字只是第一層敘事。真正值得追問的是:這股增長勢能從何而來?
答案就藏在新能源汽車的爆發之中。
中汽協數據顯示,上半年新能源汽車出口235.5萬輛,同比增長1.2倍,佔整體汽車出口的比例超過46%。6月單月,新能源汽車出口52.3萬輛,同比增長1.6倍。中汽協副秘書長陳士華在月度信息發布會上表示,上半年汽車出口"超預期增長,形成穩定支撐"。
具體來看,乘用車板塊6月出口145億美元,同比增幅84%,較2021年同期增長658%。而其中,新能源汽車正是拉動乘用車出口狂奔的那駕"主力戰車"。上半年新能源汽車出口235.5萬輛,同比增長1.2倍,佔整體汽車出口的比例超過46%。中國新能源產業鏈從礦產加工、電池製造到整車集成,形成了全球最完整、最具成本競爭力的閉環。如果說過往中國汽車出口靠的是性價比,如今拼的是技術代差。
不少專業人士如此判斷:中國汽車出海正迎來從"規模擴張"向"價值出海"的關鍵跨越,從過去講求性價比的方向,轉向技術代差的趨勢。中國新能源車三電系統、智能化供應鏈在海外具備了更強的產品競爭力。

出口市場的分化格局進一步印證了這一趨勢。2026年1至5月,巴西以37.2萬輛乘用車出口量、同比增長178.7%的成績,超越俄羅斯成為中國第一大出口市場;俄羅斯以35.1萬輛、同比增長139.8%緊隨其後。
兩國合計佔中國乘用車出口前十總量的四成以上。英國、比利時、義大利、澳洲等市場同樣保持快速增長。蓋世汽車研究院分析指出,歐洲市場"全面開花,若計入俄羅斯,歐洲在中國乘用車出口佔比已超半數"。
新能源方面,2026年1至5月,中國新能源乘用車出口的前五大目的地中,巴西以28.3萬輛位居榜首,比利時、英國分列二三位。義大利和德國新能源出口同比分別暴增365.3%和211.2%——中國新能源車已成功打入傳統工業強國的腹地。
與此同時,中國汽車出口的全球版圖也正在發生重構。拉美市場呈現兩極分化——巴西因7月關稅上調預期引發提前採購潮,推動銷量激增;而墨西哥受年初關稅上漲及北美貿易政策收緊影響,出口同比下滑40%。阿聯酋等中東市場也進入調整期,同比下降32.6%。這種分化從一定程度上說明,中國汽車出口已從"一窩蜂"式的粗放擴張,進入了精細化運營的新階段。

企業層面的變化同樣值得關注。乘聯會數據顯示,上半年出口前十車企中,奇瑞汽車以93.15萬輛居首,同比增長70.9%;比亞迪76.93萬輛緊隨其後,同比增長73.6%。兩家合計佔前十總量的近四成。吉利汽車上半年出口47.25萬輛,同比增長158.3%;上汽車乘40.42萬輛;長城汽車25.6萬輛;特斯拉中國22.9萬輛。
更值得審視的是出口佔比這一指標。奇瑞出口佔其總銷量74.3%——意味著這家企業七成以上的車賣到了海外;比亞迪海外銷量佔比超四成;長城汽車出口佔比也達五成。上半年汽車出口佔國內銷量比例已升至37%,而去年同期僅為19%。"出海"已從個別企業的"選修課"變為全行業的"必修課",海外市場正從"錦上添花"走向"半壁江山"。
盛景之下的暗湧與出路
高增長的數字確實令人振奮,但數據之下所藏著的不容迴避的結構性矛盾也值得關注。
其中,最突出的是整車與零部件之間的"冰火兩重天"。上半年整車出口918億美元,同比增長54%;零部件出口513億美元,同比僅增長7%。"剪刀差"顯而易見。
中國機電產品進出口商會汽車分會秘書長陳菁晶接受媒體採訪時指出,汽車零部件出口聚集地"基本都是傳統汽車製造強國,以美國、歐盟為代表,目前對中國出口產品的限制措施持續落地"。這與整車出口"基本不去美國"形成鮮明對照。
陳菁晶進一步警告,中國汽車出海"已告別單純貿易驅動階段,未來必須轉向本地化、體系化深耕"。她特別指出,國內出海企業普遍存在"重銷售、輕售後"的短板,"短期沖量只會透支品牌,售後、備件、用戶復購、本地口碑,才是長期深耕海外市場的核心生命線"。崔東樹的判斷則更為直接,表示"要跟隨自主整車企業發展"。
整車出口的高增長固然可喜,但若零部件長期"掉隊",中國汽車出海的"自主可控"將面臨空心化風險。
另外,貿易壁壘的持續升級是另一重現實壓力。歐盟自2024年10月起對華純電動汽車徵收為期五年的最終反補貼稅,在10%基礎關稅之上疊加7.8%至35.3%不等的額外稅負。比亞迪、吉利和上汽分別被加徵17%、18.8%和35.3%的稅率。2026年6月,歐盟委員會計劃將反補貼稅範圍擴大至插電式混合動力汽車。新華財經報道指出,新規可能參照純電標準,最高綜合稅率同樣可超過45%。
非關稅壁壘同樣也在升級,歐盟計劃於2026年9月推出"供應鏈多元化工具"和《公共採購法案》,擬要求敏感行業企業在關鍵領域建立多元化供應渠道,對單一供應商採購比例設置30%至40%的上限。
與此同時,巴西自7月1日起已對進口電動車關稅統一上調至35%。泰國實施"產能對賭"機制,要求車企以出口額換取本地化生產指標。關稅與非關稅壁壘正合攏強化。
面對日益高築的"牆",中國車企的答案不是"繞",而是"紮"——從"貿易出海"走向"產業出海"。
例如,國內一家新能源整車企業在巴西的工廠便就是最典型的樣本。該工廠已於7月迎來第10萬輛新能源汽車下線。據悉,工廠一期規劃年產能15-20萬輛,遠期目標擴至50萬輛以上,並計劃2027年初將本土化採購率提升至50%。

在歐洲,奇瑞的佈局同樣具有標誌性意義。2026年6月,奇瑞與西班牙埃夫羅汽車集團在巴塞羅那自由貿易區合資運營的工廠啟用全新M1生產線。該生產線全長696米,設有97個工作站,單車生產週期約75分鐘。埃夫羅汽車集團總裁拉斐爾·魯伊斯表示,公司選擇中企作為技術合作夥伴,意在"將汽車領域的新技術和產業經驗引入西班牙,並轉化為本地工業能力和就業機會"。
從產品出口到產能、品牌、供應鏈的全鏈條本地化,正成為中國汽車出海從"上半場"走向"下半場"的必經之路,這一趨勢被業界概括為"生態出海"。在新能源與智能化技術優勢的帶動下,中國汽車出口的形態正在發生變化:整車企業率先佈局海外產能,供應鏈企業緊隨其後,零部件的海外倉和售後服務網絡也在同步完善。
產品出口只是第一步,產能、品牌、供應鏈的全面本地化,才是決定中國汽車能否在海外真正立足的關鍵。
基於上半年509.6萬輛的出口規模,全年突破1000萬輛幾乎沒有懸念。據國際專業機構預測,2026年中國汽車出口量將同比增長41%,達到1000萬輛,成為世界上第一個出口千萬輛汽車的國家,相當於日本汽車出口量的約2.5倍。
結語
回望2021年,中國汽車出口尚不足350億美元,在國際貿易版圖中不過是一個不起眼的注腳。五年後的今天,僅半年時間便逼近千億美元量級——918億美元。在這背後,是中國製造業數十年積累的系統性爆發,是全球產業格局重新洗牌的歷史性窗口。
但數字的光環之下,結構性的隱憂同樣清晰可見。零部件與整車的"斷檔"、貿易壁壘的全面合攏、本地化能力的真實考驗——每一道都是繞不開的門檻。從"貿易出海"到"產業出海",從"規模擴張"到"價值深耕",這條路剛剛鋪開,但遠未到平坦處。
918億美元,既是一張成績單,更是一張入場券。中國汽車要真正從"大"走向"強",決定性的一章,還在後面。

總嘅嚟講,Perodua Aruz 同 Subaru Crosstrek 都係馬來西亞市場幾唔錯嘅車款。揀邊一輛,關鍵都要睇你嘅個人需求同預算。建議大家做好功課,多比較幾間車行嘅報價,再去試駕做最後決定。買車係件大事,花少少時間做功課絕對唔會錯。

近期,極氪 009 右軚版正式同步登陸泰國、馬來西亞、新加坡三大東南亞核心市場。以我睇法,今次出海含金量好高,佢唔係靠低價走量嘅普通車型輸出,而係中國品牌直接推出頂配旗艦 MPV,喺 60 萬–100 萬嘅豪華圈層,正面硬撼統治東南亞幾十年嘅豐田阿爾法。亦係極氪 009 嘅持續熱銷,真正將日系高端 MPV 嘅「神壇濾鏡」徹底打碎。

好長一段時間裡,東南亞高端商務 MPV 市場完全係阿爾法嘅自留地。哪怕車型老舊、配置緊縮、仲要加價,當地政企接待、高端商務出行依舊首選日系雙車。但近兩年市場徹底變天,其中貢獻最大、含金量最高嘅就係極氪 009。憑藉實打實嘅產品硬實力,極氪 009 喺 2026 年 1 至 5 月,連續拿下泰國、馬來西亞豪華純電 MPV 銷量冠軍,亦係目前唯一能喺海外高端豪華市場,穩定同阿爾法分庭抗禮嘅國產旗艦 MPV。
硬核產品力碾壓,極氪 009 拉開時代代差
日系 MPV 之所以快速失勢,核心就係產品太滯後,而極氪 009 帶來嘅係全方位、冇短板嘅降維體驗。阿爾法至今仲係老舊燃油架構,底盤普通、懸掛偏硬、高速噪音大,空氣懸掛、後輪轉向、高壓快充呢啲高端標準一概冇。二排按摩、車載冰箱、私隱玻璃呢啲基礎豪華配備,全部要額外花錢選配,整體體驗完全配唔到佢嘅豪華定價。

極氪 009 右軚海外版則完全係另一套高端邏輯,泰國起售價 66.4 萬、頂配接近 99 萬,同阿爾法頂配價格高度重疊,全程唔靠低價內捲,純靠產品力對標。佢係東南亞市場數唔多嘅全系標準 900V 高壓平台 + 雙腔空氣懸掛+CCD 電磁減震嘅旗艦 MPV,支持 10 分鐘快充補能 500 公里,喺高速、長途出行場景下,補能效率完勝燃油車加油速度。同時標準智能魔毯底盤、底盤高度可調,唔論係高速巡航定係顛簸路段,濾震、穩定性、靜謐性,都同傳統燃油 MPV 高級整整一個層級。

針對東南亞高溫、多雨、擁堵、老市區道路狹窄嘅特殊路況,極氪 009 做咗大量專屬本地化適應。強化電池高溫熱管理系統,唔驚熱帶常年高溫暴曬;全域強力空調快速降溫,滿載多人出行亦唔會悶熱;專屬底盤防腐工藝,適應多雨潮濕氣候。同時依靠靈活嘅車身調校,窄路掉頭、地庫停車比笨重嘅阿爾法靈活太多。內飾層面,全車多層隔音玻璃、Nappa 真皮航空座椅、通風加熱按摩、車載冷暖冰箱、後排大屏幕全部標準,唔使額外加價,豪華質感直接拉滿。比較睇落,極氪 009 先至係真正貼合現代高端出行嘅旗艦產品。
政策同消費迭代,令極氪 009 嘅優勢徹底放大
以我睇法,極氪 009 能快速站穩海外高端市場,係產品優勢疊加市場紅利嘅雙重結果。泰國 EV3.5 新能源政策,對進口純電車減免大額關稅、消費稅,疊加購車補貼、高速通行減免福利,大幅降低咗高端純電 MPV 嘅用車門檻。反觀大排量阿爾法,稅費高、油耗高、維保貴,行業測算全生命週期用車成本,比極氪 009 高出 30% 左右,長期使用性價比差距巨大。目前泰國新能源滲透率已達 45.6%,當地消費者早已接受電車,唔再盲目迷信燃油豪車標。

更重要係消費人群徹底換代。過去東南亞高端 MPV 買家係老一輩傳統商人,只認豐田品牌溢價。而而家主力係年輕企業家、新生代中產,佢哋揀車務實理性,更重視舒適、智能、成本同體驗。極氪 009 平順靜謐、零頓挫嘅純電行車質感,智能座艙、智能輔助駕駛嘅全面加持,加上極低嘅日常養車成本,精準拿捏新生代高端用戶嘅核心需求,自然快速搶占高端商務市場。
專屬高端出海服務,撐起極氪 009 嘅豪華定位
高端車比拼嘅從來唔止產品,仲有服務,呢亦係極氪 009 碾壓日系嘅關鍵。豐田喺東南亞深耕幾十年,依舊係傳統第三方經銷商模式,賣車零散、售後標準混亂,冇專屬高端服務體系,完全撐唔起豪華車定位。
極氪為 009 打造咗整套高端直營體系,喺東南亞核心城市落地高端直營展廳,匹配車型豪華定位。同時全域鋪設高速、景區、商圈快充網絡,搭配本地化維保中心同完整零部件供應鏈,實現睇車、购车、補能、售後一站式閉環服務。標準化、高品質嘅高端服務,搭配極致嘅產品力,令極氪 009 嘅海外高端口碑持續發酵。

結語:客觀嚟講,日系喺平價燃油 MPV 市場仲有基本盤,但喺高端新能源賽道已經徹底掉隊。極氪 009 嘅海外持續熱銷,意義重大。佢徹底撕走咗中國車“低價走量”嘅標籤,用硬核技術、豪華產品、高端服務,打破咗日系幾十年嘅高端 MPV 壟斷,亦預示住未來東南亞高端 MPV 嘅市場規則,將會由中國品牌重新定義。
