Currently, the automobile industry is undergoing a rapid transformation towards new energy vehicles, with the trends of intelligent, electrified, and globalized passenger cars becoming increasingly important. The export of Chinese new energy vehicles is showing a significant acceleration.
Port trains providing a new gateway
Behind the accelerated trend of "going global" of domestically produced automobiles lies the strong support of the logistics supply chain. Guangzhou Nansha Automobile Port, located in the geometric center of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, is one of the largest automobile Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro Ro) terminal clusters in China, boasting 7 Ro Ro berths with a capacity of over 10,000 metric tons, a 1.8-kilometer waterfront, and nearly 1.6 million square meters of storage yards for commercial vehicles.
"At present, Nansha Automobile Port has 7 international shipping routes for automobile exports opened, covering various countries in the Middle East, Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia. It has attracted over ten automobile brands, including Chevrolet, Changan, and Chery, to export from Nansha," said Lu Chunrong, Manager of Nansha Automobile Port's Business Expansion Department. To facilitate the smooth passage of domestically produced vehicles, Nansha Automobile Port plans to add more ferry services to Hong Kong and Macao, as well as international transhipment services, thereby promoting the export of domestic new energy vehicles from Nansha.
In addition to the supporting services for automobile exports at Nansha Automobile Port, the Guangzhou International Port of China-Europe Railway Express in northern Guangzhou have also started to undertake automobile export business in recent years to meet the demands of companies. Currently, the train routes from this station have connected more than 40 cities in over 20 countries and regions in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, West Asia, Central Asia, and Southeast Asia, providing new trade channels for Chinese automobiles exported to countries related to the "Belt and Road" initiative.

As a Guangdong-based company with global influence, BYD's new energy vehicles have already been sold to over 70 countries and regions on six continents, encompassing over 400 cities. In Brazil, BYD remained the best-selling brand of new energy vehicles for five consecutive months; In Thailand, Singapore, and other countries, BYD became the champion in cumulative sales of pure electric vehicles for the entire year; In Costa Rica and Colombia, BYD also emerged as the winner in cumulative sales of new energy vehicles for the entire year.
As one of the two automotive powerhouses in Guangdong, GAC Group has completed market layouts in five major regions: the Middle East, the Americas, Africa, Southeast Asia, and Eastern Europe, covering 39 countries and regions. Its joint venture subsidiary, GAC Honda, has embarked on the international stage, exporting the ZR-V and Odyssey hybrid models to the European and Japanese markets respectively, with a total export volume of over 20,000 units, enabling its manufacturing capabilities to be recognized in the overseas markets.
