从文化、政治和经济上讲，现在的中国与我们过去在西方看到的中国有天壤之别。在汽车行业也是如此，以下是值得世界关注的九大中国汽车制造商。

按销量排名。

9：广汽集团（广州汽车集团）

2021年，该集团通过广汽、传祺、埃安Aion共售出45万辆。基本上是各种尺寸的SUV，加上一些轿车和有趣的电动汽车。

此外，它作为与三菱、丰田、本田和 Stellantis合资企业的一部分生产汽车。目前，广汽集团的全球扩张尚未到达欧洲或美国，但该集团正在与丰田进行大量投资，以制造更具竞争力的电动汽车。

8：比亚迪（建立你的梦想）

比亚迪公司成立于2003年，当时比亚迪公司收购了秦川汽车，去年该公司包括王朝系列在内销售了74万辆汽车，其中包括引人注目的比亚迪唐中型SUV和现代比亚迪汉插电/电动轿车。还有带有 Dolfin、Seal 和更多型号的 Ocean 家族。比亚迪已经在一些欧洲市场销售唐SUV，并在中东和南美开展业务。

7：东风

就品牌而言，东风是一家庞大的公司：启辰、丰都Fengdu、风神、Forthing、Voyah，当然还有东风。它还为本田、日产、起亚和标致雪铁龙生产汽车。2021 年，该集团共售出 762,000 辆汽车（不包括合资企业），与 2020 年相比增长 13%，与 2019 年相比增长 23%。

东风在欧洲销售一些车辆（Seres 3、东风 580 和 F5），但其在全球市场的最大优势在于轻型商用车领域。

6：一汽（第一汽车厂）

它成立于 1953 年，它是中国的主要制造商之一。去年，该公司在旗下品牌中销售了81万辆汽车，其中包括解放卡车、奔腾传统汽车和红旗豪华车。

后一个品牌生产红旗L5，这是中国的官方用车。一汽与丰田、通用和大众集团有合资企业。红旗以 E-HS9 豪华 SUV 在挪威亮相欧洲。

5：奇瑞汽车

奇瑞是一个相对较新的品牌，于1997年推出，主要产品为乘用车、SUV和商用车。它于 2001 年开始出口汽车，但在发达市场的影响力仍然非常有限。然而，它在中国以外的地方设有生产设施，特别是在巴西和埃及。去年，奇瑞以 Exeed、Karry、Jetour 和自己的奇瑞铭牌销售了 962,000 辆。DR汽车在意大利组装的大部分汽车都是奇瑞原产的。

4：上汽集团（上海汽车工业总公司）

上汽目前拥有名爵、莫里斯以及荣威、大通、飞帆等其他品牌。2021年，上汽在全球销售了111万辆汽车，不包括与通用五菱（生产中国最畅销电动汽车五菱宏光Mini EV）、大众汽车、通用汽车和依维柯合资生产的汽车销量。

通过名爵品牌，这家制造商是 2021 年在欧洲销量第二大的中国汽车制造商，销量为 53,100 辆。这相当于在旧大陆销售的所有中国品牌的 80% 以上，不包括吉利。

3：长城汽车

这家私人控股公司主要以 SUV 闻名。旗下拥有中国最大的SUV品牌哈弗、Wey、Tank、ORA、长城等自有品牌。尽管2021年交付的128万辆汽车大部分在中国销售，但它已经开始通过欧拉品牌及其复古风格的小型车开拓欧洲市场。哈弗也出现在南美和中东等市场。

2：吉利集团

这可以说是最全球化的中国 OEM，这要归功于其对沃尔沃汽车的控股以及其部分品牌在中国以外的大力推动。这家企业集团于 1997 年开始生产吉利品牌的汽车，销量为 203 万辆。

多年后，吉利收购了瑞典的沃尔沃、马来西亚的宝腾、英国的莲花等国外品牌。吉利还推出了新品牌，例如领克公司，该品牌在欧洲市场占有一席之地，并在荷兰和意大利取得了巨大成功。Polestar、Zeekr 和 Geometry 也在吉利集团旗下。

1：长安汽车

总部位于中国西南地区的重庆，2021年以230万辆的销量位居全国第一，不包括合资企业的销量。销量较 2020 年增长 15%，较 2019 年增长 31%。长安汽车生产长安品牌（2021 年中国第二大国产品牌）、欧山Oshan, 和凯新Kaicene品牌汽车。目前，长安与福特、马自达有合资企业。去年，长安汽车的销量超过了马自达和塔塔集团等其他公司。

China is a world apart. Culturally, politically, and economically speaking, this country is very different from what we are used to seeing in the west. That holds true in the automotive sector, where the world's largest car market includes a large number of brands and models not available in the rest of the world.

Thanks to strong local demand, Chinese manufacturers have largely focused on the domestic market. But sooner or later, they will expand their business globally. Here are the nine largest Chinese automakers to watch, ranked by sales volume.

9: GAC Group (Guangzhou Automobile Group)

In 2021, this group sold 450,000 units through GAC, Trumpchi, and Aion. These are basically SUVs of various sizes, plus a few sedans and interesting electric vehicles.

In addition, it produces cars as part of a joint venture with Mitsubishi, Toyota, Honda, and Stellantis. At present, GAC's global expansion hasn't reached Europe or the United States, but the group is investing heavily with Toyota to make more competitive electric cars.

8: BYD (Build Your Dreams)

Founded in 2003 when BYD Company bought Qinchuan Automobile, last year the company sold 740,000 cars within an articulated range that includes the Dynasty series, featuring the eye-catching BYD Tang midsize SUV and the modern BYD Han plug-in / electric sedan. There is also the Ocean family with the Dolfin, the Seal, and many more models to come. BYD already sells Tang SUVs in some European markets and has a presence in the Middle East and South America.

7: Dongfeng

Dongfeng is a sprawling company in terms of brands: Venucia, Fengdu, Aeolus, Forthing, Voyah, and of course, Dongfeng proper. It also produces cars for Honda, Nissan, Kia, and Peugeot-Citroën. In 2021, this group sold 762,000 vehicles all total (excluding joint ventures), up 13 percent compared to 2020 and 23 percent versus 2019.

Dongfeng markets some vehicles in Europe (Seres 3, Dongfeng 580, and F5) but its biggest strength in global markets lies within the light commercial vehicle segment.

6: FAW (First Car Factory)

It was founded in 1953 and is one of the key manufacturers in China due to its strong ties to Chinese state officials. Last year, the company sold 810,000 vehicles among its brands, which include Jiefang trucks, Bestune traditional cars, and Hongqi luxury cars.

The latter brand produces the Hongqi L5, the official state car of China. FAW has joint ventures with Toyota, General Motors, and Volkswagen Group. Hongqi is present in Europe with the E-HS9 luxury SUV in Norway.

5: Chery Automobile

Chery is a relatively new brand, having launched in 1997. Its main products are passenger cars, SUVs, and commercial vehicles. It started exporting cars in 2001 but still has a very limited presence in developed markets. However, it has production facilities outside of China, specifically in Brazil and Egypt. Last year, Chery sold 962,000 units under the brands Exeed, Karry, Jetour, and its own Chery nameplate. Most of the cars assembled by DR Automobiles in Italy are of Chery origin.

4: SAIC Motor (Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation)

SAIC is the current owner of MG, Morris Garages, and other brands such as Roewe, Maxus, and Feifan. In 2021, SAIC sold 1.11 million cars worldwide, excluding sales of the cars made under joint ventures with GM-Wuling (which produces the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV, the best-selling EV in China), Volkswagen, General Motors, and Iveco.

Through the MG brand, this manufacturer was the second-largest Chinese automaker in terms of sales in Europe in 2021, with 53,100 units sold. This equates to more than 80 percent of all Chinese brands marketed in the Old Continent, excluding Geely.

3: Great Wall Motors

This privately held company is primarily known for its SUVs. It produces vehicles under its own brands such as Haval, China's largest SUV brand, Wey, Tank, ORA, and Great Wall. Although most of the 1.28-million cars delivered in 2021 were sold in China, it has begun exploring the European market through the ORA brand and its retro-styled small cars. Haval is also present in developing markets such as South America and the Middle East.

2: Geely Group

This is arguably the most global Chinese OEM thanks to its controlling stake in Volvo Cars and the strong push of some of its brands outside of China. With 2.03 million units sold, this conglomerate began producing cars in 1997 under the Geely brand.

Years later, Geely bought foreign brands such as Sweden's Volvo, Malaysian Proton, and Britain's Lotus. Geely has also launched new brands such as Lynk & Co, which is present in Europe with great success in the Netherlands and Italy. Polestar, Zeekr, and Geometry are also under the Geely Group umbrella.

1: Changan Automobile

Headquartered in Chongqing, southwest China, it was the country's top vehicle manufacturer in 2021 with 2.3 million units sold, not including sales through joint ventures. Volume increased 15 percent from 2020 and 31 percent from 2019. Changan manufactures vehicles under the Changan brand (China's second most popular domestic brand in 2021), Oshan, and Kaicene. Currently, Changan has joint ventures with Ford and Mazda. Last year, Changan sold more cars than other companies like Mazda and the Tata Group.
