Dominating global innovation and production, Chinese automakers now produce over half the world's EVs. New brands like Xiaomi are nearly matching Tesla in autonomy, range, and digital features. Additionally, two Chinese battery makers supply half the world's EV batteries, with China accounting for 75 percent of global production.
