China's BYD shows effects of price war with weaker profit growth

BEIJING (Reuters) -Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker BYD posted its weakest quarterly profit growth since 2022 on Monday while its revenue growth slowed to the lowest level in nearly four years, hit by slowing EV demand and a bruising price war in the world's largest auto market. First-quarter net profit was up 10.6% at 4.57 billion yuan ($631.08 million) while revenue grew by 4% to 124.94 billion yuan, BYD said in a stock market filing. With a brand portfolio at different price points, BYD has ramped up efforts to move upmarket while doubling down on discounts to vie for cautious consumers amid a sputtering economic recovery.

Organisers say that 117 new models are making their debut at Auto China 2024, which runs through May 4

The Beijing auto show is showcasing cutting-edge cars that behave like tanks and can morph into living rooms.

Since its launch, the electric car from Xiaomi, namely SU7, has received a positive response, even after the launch of the sedan model order was quite fantastic.

China's vision of the future of the automobile — electrified and digitally connected — is on display at the ongoing Beijing auto show. Organizers say that 117 new models are making their debut at Auto China 2024, which runs through May 4. Xiaomi announced that it had received more than 75,000 orders in the four weeks since the launch of its first car, the SU7, with a list price of 215,900 to 299,900 yuan ($29,800-$41,400).

Electric vehicle executives at a top car show in China were bullish on prospects for growth, despite a gruelling price war and mounting Western pressure on the industry. And even as firms face down a cut-throat price war at home and mounting regulatory pressure overseas, executives and attendees were upbeat.

China's largest auto show opened in Beijing with the biggest names showing off their latest electric vehicles (EVs), underlining how the world's largest auto market is already in an all-electric state of mind, and isn't looking back. The last thing China needs is more electric cars crowding a market, driving down prices at the expense of profit. Exporting that overcapacity, however, has brought EV makers to authorities' attention.

The Beijing auto show is reportedly serving as the platform for the biggest automakers around the globe to showcase their EVs.
