Chinese Automakers Display Force at Paris Auto Show

 

By Melissa Eddy and Liz Alderman

 

China’s ambitions to become a force in the European car market were on full display this week at the Paris Motor Show, where a record number of the country’s automakers unveiled cutting-edge electric models despite a recent European Union decision to impose anti-subsidy tariffs on their vehicles.

At the event, designed to showcase Europe’s top automakers, the displays that drew some of the biggest crowds were those from the likes of BYD, Leapmotor and Xpeng, which boasted how the speed of their technological advances—including the use of artificial intelligence—would help them compete with, or even surpass, their European rivals in the electric vehicle revolution.

Europe has an ambitious goal of fully transitioning to electric vehicles by 2035, and the continent’s biggest carmakers—among them Renault, Stellantis, BMW and Volkswagen—all put forward new models aimed at appealing to European consumers. But Beijing is also eager to get in on that game, with the nine Chinese automakers at the Paris show appearing undeterred by what they view as protectionist efforts to slow their advance.

BYD, which made its European debut at the show two years ago, displayed seven models, which its officials said used electric and hybrid technology that surpassed that of its European rivals.

At the BYD stand, a large-screen video displayed landmarks from around the world, from the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. It was a visual reminder of the company’s ambition to make a Chinese car appealing to Western buyers.

In just a few years, BYD has grown its presence beyond China to 100 countries. In the first six months of this year, a quarter of all hybrid or fully electric vehicles sold on the planet were made by BYD, the company said.

The challenge for European automakers is formidable. Europe is facing a drop in demand for new cars, with overall sales this year around 18 percent lower than prepandemic levels, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association. Electric vehicle sales are declining even more, accounting for only around 12 percent of market share this year.
