Abstract

Against intensified competition between China and the United States, the electric vehicle industry faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities. Relying on strong policy support and huge market size, China rapidly rises to become the world's largest electric vehicle market, with representative companies such as BYD and NIO emerging. However, with the gradual decline of subsidy policies, these companies need to pay more attention to improving product quality and enhancing market competitiveness. At the same time, the United States is in a leading position in electric vehicle technology innovation, and companies such as Tesla have promoted the development of the industry. However, the Sino-US trade friction has brought high tariff barriers to China's electric vehicle exports, making Chinese and American companies face pressure in the competition. In the future, the competition between the Chinese and American electric vehicle industries will continue to evolve, and the dynamic changes in policies, technologies, and market development between the two sides will affect the development of the sector. Companies need to flexibly respond to policy changes, strengthen technological innovation, actively explore emerging markets, and improve the security of the supply chain to achieve sustainable growth.
