China uses subsidies extensively to take a leading role in the global markets of green-tech products such as battery electric vehicles and wind turbines. Against the background of the current EU investigations into Chinese subsidies in these sectors, this article takes a careful look at the Chinese subsidy system and provides new data on direct government subsidies to leading Chinese producers of electric cars and wind turbines. Extensive government support has allowed Chinese companies to scale up rapidly, to dominate the Chinese market and to expand into foreign markets. The article concludes that the EU should use its strong bargaining power due to the single market to induce the Chinese government to abandon the most harmful subsidies.

MUNICH (Reuters) -Chinese car makers are making inroads in Europe and executives say they are in the region to stay, underscoring a key reversal as brands from BYD to SAIC take market share on a continent where they once struggled to make sales. At this week's IAA Mobility car show in Munich, China's auto firms - facing a tough price war at home - were increasingly bullish about their plans for Europe, dominated still by local brands such as Volkswagen and Renault. "Everything we do starts with the needs of European users," said GAC's president of international operations Wei Haigang as the Chinese automaker showed off the Aion V electric SUV that will start sales in Poland, Portugal and Finland this month, and the Aion UT set to go on sale in Europe next year.

This year's IAA Mobility, the continent's biggest biennial car show, comes as European automakers lose ground in China - the world's biggest market - in what some executives have described as a "Darwinian" price war. At the same time, to escape pressure at home Chinese automakers are expanding into Europe in search of profits, above all electric vehicle maker BYD, whose global sales soared to 4.2 million cars in 2024, up ten-fold from 2019.

Audi AG's new China-only sub-brand, which drops its famous four rings in favor of a "lettermark" badge, is drawing both praise and skepticism after opening pre-sales of its first model last week.
