United States

The U.S. continues to be a major importer of electric vehicles (EV) . In 2023, EV imports to the U.S. were valued at approximately $19 billion, encompassing battery electric, plug-in hybrid, and hybrid vehicles. This figure represents over 20% of total U.S. car imports by value, underscoring the nation's growing adoption of electric mobility. The trend is further supported by federal incentives and infrastructure investments aimed at accelerating EV adoption.

Germany remains a significant player in the EV import market. In 2023, the country imported 129,800 fully electric passenger cars from China, valued at €3.4 billion. Despite a slight decrease in imports in the first four months of 2024, China's share of Germany's EV imports continued to rise, indicating a sustained demand for Chinese-made electric vehicles.

The UK has seen a surge in the adoption of Chinese electric vehicles. In May 2025, Chinese-made EVs accounted for 9.4% of all UK car sales, up from 5.5% the previous year.

Australia

Australia's EV market is increasingly dominated by Chinese manufacturers. In 2024, over 80% of EVs sold in Australia were made in China. This influx has driven down prices, with models like the BYD Seal priced around $50,000, significantly lower than in Europe. The absence of tariffs on Chinese EVs in Australia has facilitated this growth, making EVs more accessible to Australian consumers.



Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan has also seen a rise in EV imports, primarily from China. In the first nine months of 2024, the country imported 16,209 electric vehicles, with nearly 99.5% sourced from China. This trend reflects Uzbekistan's efforts to modernize its vehicle fleet and promote environmentally friendly transportation options.

🌍 Emerging Markets

Emerging markets are increasingly becoming significant players in the global EV import scene. Countries like Turkey and Brazil have implemented tariffs on Chinese EVs, aiming to encourage local production and protect domestic industries. These measures reflect a strategic shift towards fostering local manufacturing capabilities in the face of China's growing export dominance.
