As a motor industry association, it has always been an important task for the association to take measures to help member enterprises expand their export trade.
In response to the difficulties and pain points faced by motor companies in their current domestic and foreign trade operations, the association invited Professor Shen Yuliang, a researcher at the World Economic Research Institute of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, to give a special report on the "Analysis of Trade Trends and Development Trends of Motor Products" at the conference. Professor Shen first analyzed the changes and characteristics of China's entire goods trade in 2023, and then analyzed the trade trends and characteristics of China's motor products from January to July 2022 and 2023. He then identified three basic characteristics of motor products and identified the three basic factors that affect motor product trade.
