BYD and other manufacturers are importing cars from China and scouting factory sites in Mexico as part of a global expansion that, for now, excludes the United States.
The article from The New York Times, published on December 9, 2024, discusses how China has strategically shifted its electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing to Mexico to circumvent U.S. trade barriers and tariffs. This move allows Chinese EV manufacturers to benefit from the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) trade deal, which provides duty-free access to the U.S. market for vehicles assembled in Mexico. The article highlights the growing presence of Chinese automotive companies in Mexico, with investments in new factories and partnerships with local firms. This strategy not only helps Chinese companies avoid high U.S. tariffs on Chinese-made EVs but also positions them to take advantage of North American incentives for electric vehicles. The piece also touches on the concerns of U.S. automakers and policymakers about the potential flood of low-cost EVs from Mexico, which could disrupt the domestic market and challenge local manufacturers. Additionally, it explores the implications for labor, trade relations, and the broader geopolitical landscape between the U.S., China, and Mexico.
