Chinese electric vehicle sales surged, with 53% of new auto sales being plug-in vehicles in October, led by BYD. Solid-state battery advancements were highlighted, including new factories from Chery and Honda. Tesla expanded into the Philippines, while Hyundai unveiled the IONIQ 9, expected to be a hit in the US market.
Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers are rapidly outpacing their U.S. counterparts, with BYD leading in plugin vehicle sales and companies like NIO, XPENG, and Xiaomi making significant strides in global markets. Meanwhile, traditional U.S. automakers like Ford and GM are noticeably absent from the competitive landscape, as Tesla's future relies heavily on uncertain AI and robotaxi developments. The gap between Chinese and U.S. EV progress is expected to widen further in the coming years.
Nio Inc. reported a revenue of 18.7 billion yuan ($2.6 billion) for the quarter ending September 30, falling short of analyst expectations of 19.2 billion yuan, despite delivering a record 61,855 cars. The company also faced a larger-than-expected adjusted net loss of 4.4 billion yuan, exceeding the projected 4.3 billion yuan loss.
Avatr, the electric car unit of Changan, has joined NIO"s extensive EV charging network, becoming the 14th automaker to do so. NIO operates 2,442 supercharging stations and 1,660 destination charging stations across China, enhancing charging accessibility for EV users, particularly in urban settings. This partnership follows their collaboration on a battery swapping network, highlighting a trend of consolidation in the Chinese EV market.
Xiaomi has made a significant entry into the electric vehicle market, reporting $1.34 billion in revenue from "smart EV and other new initiatives" in Q3, a 52.3% increase quarter over quarter, with a gross profit margin of 17.1%. The company delivered 39,790 electric vehicles and claims to be the fastest new auto OEM to produce 100,000 vehicles, achieving this milestone in just 230 days. Its SU7 Ultra model boasts impressive specifications, including a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 1.98 seconds, positioning Xiaomi as a formidable player in the EV sector.
NIO has partnered with Green Car to enter Azerbaijan, planning to begin deliveries in Q2 2025 while establishing a charging and battery swap network. Meanwhile, XPENG has launched in Nepal with CG Motors, opening its first showroom in Kathmandu and delivering 25 G6 electric cars, aiming to expand its sales and service centers significantly.
US Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm warned that eliminating the $7,500 EV tax credit, as proposed by Donald Trump, would hinder the US electric vehicle market and cede leadership to China. The move could significantly reduce EV sales, including Tesla's, as consumers may opt for cheaper gas cars instead. This shift threatens the US economy's long-term competitiveness in the global auto industry, where Chinese manufacturers are rapidly gaining ground.
Nio is set to release its financial figures on November 20, amid a challenging period marked by a significant share price decline of over 9.4%. Despite an expected annual loss of 2 billion euros, the company's innovative interchangeable battery concept offers a potential competitive edge, although implementation speed remains a concern. Investors are cautiously optimistic, as indicated by a slight 1.6% share price recovery.
Tesla's market cap surged past $1 trillion following an 8% stock rally after Donald Trump's election win, reflecting investor optimism about potential benefits for the company under a Trump administration. CEO Elon Musk, a significant Trump supporter, anticipates 20% to 30% vehicle growth next year, driven by lower-cost models and advancements in autonomy. Tesla reported third-quarter revenue of $25.18 billion and net income of $2.17 billion, while analysts suggest a less regulated environment could enhance Tesla's competitive edge against cheaper Chinese EVs.
Tesla shares surged 8% in overnight trading as investors speculated that a potential Trump victory would benefit CEO Elon Musk, a major supporter. Musk's recent $75 million donation to America PAC and his promise to lead a government efficiency commission if Trump is elected have fueled optimism, despite concerns that a Trump presidency could negatively impact the EV industry overall. Analysts suggest that Tesla's unmatched scale may provide a competitive edge in a market less reliant on subsidies, especially with anticipated higher tariffs on Chinese EV manufacturers.
