according to chongqing daily, the 2024 china motorcycle chongqing forum was held at yuelai international conference center on september 12. reporters learned from the meeting thatin the first half of this year, the city exported 2.214 million motorcycles, ranking first in the country.it is estimated that the city's motorcycle production will exceed 6 million units this year, with an output value of more than 100 billion yuan, of which the output of electric motorcycles will exceed 2 million units.
tu xingyong, deputy director of the municipal economic and information commission, introduced the development of chongqing's motorcycle industry to industry professionals and representatives from all walks of life from all over the world at the meeting. he said that as a world-renowned motorcycle capital, chongqing currently has 43 motorcycle complete vehicle manufacturers and more than 400 large-scale parts and components supporting enterprises, with an annual production capacity of 10 million complete vehicles and 20 million engines, as well as complete production capacity for engine frames, shock absorption capacity, instruments and other major general contractors.
"in the first half of this year, the city's motorcycle production was close to 3 million units, a year-on-year increase of 15.1%, accounting for 31.4% of the national proportion, and the output value reached 45.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 8.3%. this growth rate is also very high." tu xingyong said that the city's motorcycle companies such as zongshen and yinxiang are firmly in the top ten in the country in terms of fuel motorcycle sales. the three leading electric motorcycle companies, emma, ​​yadi, and tailing, have also set up locations in chongqing and concentrated their development.

at the forum that day, the overseas expansion of the motorcycle industry became the core topic of discussion among the participants. li bin, executive vice president of the china motorcycle chamber of commerce, said that in recent years, the production and domestic sales of domestic fuel motorcycles have shown a downward trend year by year, while exports have shown a steady growth trend. from january to july this year, china's motorcycle exports reached more than 4.8 million units, a year-on-year increase of 27.82%. exports accounted for 54.3% of total sales, becoming the most important pillar of china's motorcycle industry. "at the same time, industry profits are also increasing, indicating that our industrial transformation and upgrading and product structure adjustment have achieved a gradual success."
li bin also pointed out that china's motorcycle export market is relatively concentrated at present. once these markets fluctuate, it will have a greater impact on the overall export. in addition, although chinese motorcycles have certain advantages in terms of cost performance, there is still a certain gap between them and internationally renowned brands in terms of brand awareness, technological innovation, and product quality. it is not easy to gain a competitive advantage in overseas high-end markets.
zuo zongshen, president of the china motorcycle chamber of commerce, said that the motorcycle industry is at a critical moment with both challenges and opportunities. external factors such as global economic fluctuations, intensified market competition, and diversified consumer demand have brought unprecedented pressure to the industry. however, this has also prompted the industry to accelerate transformation and upgrading and explore new development paths. at present, many positive changes have emerged within the industry. under the leadership of technological innovation, the trend of intelligence and networking is becoming increasingly obvious, and it is driving products to develop in the direction of high-end and personalized development. the rise of electric motorcycles and large-displacement motorcycles has also brought new growth points for overseas business.
cui jian, general manager of chongqing zhufeng yttrium power technology co., ltd., has a deep feeling about this. he recently participated in several domestic and international industry exhibitions and found that more than half of the exhibitors were from china: "domestic peers are aiming at overseas markets and trying to 'break through'. i understand that the real 'breakthrough' is not a breakthrough in channel flattening, but to improve internal skills, make good products, and truly gain respect and recognition from others."
tu xingyong said that in the face of the profound changes in the current global motorcycle industry, chongqing city attaches great importance to the development of the motorcycle industry and accelerates the construction of a motorcycle industry cluster worth hundreds of billions of yuan. in the future, in addition to continuing to expand the scale of the industry, accelerating the creation of high-quality brands, and vigorously promoting intelligent development, the city will continue to consolidate the export market, support motorcycle companies to continue to accurately explore diversified international markets, and encourage companies to establish complete vehicle production bases and scattered assembly plants overseas in a step-by-step manner to continuously enhance the competitiveness of products in the international market.
