China Automotive Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the drivers, restraints, challenges, and weaknesses. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Increasing focus of the government on imposing mandatory safety standards for automotive
The market for automotive vehicles is growing rapidly in China, especially for passenger vehicles. China's auto market seems to be the world's biggest, with intelligent functions such as internet connectivity and autonomous driving. This is expected to drive sales to increase by 30% by 2025.
Although with the growing automotive sales in the country, there is an increase in traffic incidents. The main reason for traffic incidents in China are actions against traffic regulations, including over freight and speed, fatigue driving, and vehicle malfunctions. In recent years, the government has been strengthening large-scale inspections of safety measures. This was during rush periods of long-distance passenger transportation. Thus, having contained frequent heavy traffic accidents and effectively controlled the rise in death toll claimed by traffic accidents. However, in another aspect, the death toll caused by accidents or vehicle collisions has increased with the increase in vehicle population.
- Growing prevalence of automotive
The production and consumption of automobiles are mainly centered on the passenger segment automobiles in China. This has been a major driving factor for the increase in the automobile industry since the 21st century. The growth of the Chinese economy, the vehicle population, especially passenger vehicles with private cars as the mainstay, has been increasing rapidly.
China continues to be the world's largest vehicle market by annual sales and manufacturing output, with domestic production expected to reach 35 million vehicles by 2025. Based on data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, over 26 million vehicles were sold in 2021, including 21.48 million passenger vehicles, an increase of 7.1% from 2020. Commercial vehicle sales reached 4.79 million units, down 6.6% from 2020.
Moreover, there is a growing importance for electric vehicles across the globe. Electric vehicles (EVs) are designed to be a promising technology to achieve sustainable transportation with zero carbon emissions, low noise, and high efficiency. Electric vehicles are highly embedded with automotive software and have various benefits concentrated by various countries. This has resulted in formulation regulation, policies, testing, inspection, and certification process to boost electric vehicle quality as it helps control carbon emissions and avoid China warming.
Opportunity
- Growing trend of electric and ADAS vehicles
Electric vehicles (EVs) are designed to be a promising technology for sustainable transportation with zero carbon emissions, low noise, and high efficiency. Moreover, electric vehicles evolved in the 19th century, but due to a lack of technological advancement, internal combustion engines had a huge demand compared to electric vehicles. During the 20th century, technological advancement was boosted yearly, resulting in developments and innovations that helped reshape electric vehicles.
Moreover, electric vehicles are the key technology to decarbonize road transport. Recent years have seen exponential growth in the sale of electric vehicles with improved range, wider model availability, and increased performance. Passenger electric cars are surging in popularity. In addition, the government of China is supporting the usage of electric vehicles. Governments are providing various policies and formulating rules to promote electric vehicle usage.
Restraint/Challenge
- Varying standards across different regions/countries
Automotive emissions are one of the leading contributors to air pollution. The various exhaust gases from an automobile tailpipe, such as NOx, CO2, and CO, are the primary reasons for polluting the atmosphere and environment, which further leads to cause respiratory and skin diseases in humans. This has made many countries formulate stringent rules and regulations to reduce emissions.
Furthermore, different countries and regions have implemented norms and have set different standards. Several large state-owned automobile enterprises, such as Beijing Automotive Industry Corp, Brilliance China Automotive Holdings, and many others in China, tried to partner with foreign auto manufacturers. These joint ventures are formed to increase their capacity and enhance their technical capabilities.
However, companies from other countries have different vehicle standards and norms than China. This will create variations in the features of the automobile along with the pricing. Moreover, the government of China is changing the norms and standards frequently.
