Executive Summary

Supplier capability in China

AUTOMOTIVE PARTS
Chinas automotive parts industry is looking forward to strong sales this year. Many suppliers are optimistic of double-digit gains in coming months as markets continue to recover from the 2008 financial crisis. Customs statistics for the first two months of the year are encouraging. Records show the country sent abroad nearly $3.7 billion worth of vehicle lights, brakes, tires, wheels, transmissions, suspension systems, nondriving axles, radiators, mufflers, clutches, steering wheels and related components. This is already an increase of 33 percent YoY. In 2010, exports rose 42 percent YoY to exceed $22 billion. To ensure they achieve target sales, makers are enhancing cost management to keep prices under control amid rising outlay. Many are also facilitating their shift to highervalue production, aiming for long-term competitiveness and viability.

Key findings
1. Prices of China-made automotive parts are expected to remain on an upward track in the next six months due to higher production outlay and the appreciation of the yuan. Many suppliers, however, intend to limit increases within the 10 percent range to minimize the risk of upsetting demand and losing orders. 2. The movement toward high-value manufacturing will gain momentum as rising expenses and exchange risk limit profitability in the low end. In line with this, allocations for product development and market research are increasing. Several companies are also forging partnerships with academic institutions and overseas counterparts. 3. R&D efforts will focus on meeting standards for fuel efficiency and carbon emissions. The development of components for hybrid and allelectric cars is also projected to go on a fast track. 4. North America and the EU are anticipated to remain key export destinations. Despite the trade barriers and other challenges, these markets continue to attract manufacturers because of their strong consumption. 5. Export sales are forecast to grow at least 10 percent in the months ahead. Among profiled suppliers, 47 percent expect the increase in revenue to exceed 20 percent. More than one-third sees gains ranging from 10 to 20 percent. 6. Capital investment is on the upswing in anticipation of stronger demand. Many companies are also enhancing production facilities to boost efficiency and generate cost savings.

Scope & methodology

This report covers automotive lights, brake parts, tires, rims, electronic components, and engine and mechanical parts. The categories are discussed in separate sections. For each line, details about the different types offered, their common features and price determinants are provided. The latest trends in product development and manufacturing are also discussed. Information on the supplier base and key hubs can likewise be found. The Industry Overview elaborates on issues affecting production and exports. It also identifies the common strategies manufacturers are employing to cope with challenges and enhance overall competitiveness. To reflect the industry structure, the majority of the suppliers featured in this report are local, privately owned enterprises. The rest consists of publicly

listed companies, state-invested enterprises and those with financing from foreign, Hong Kong and Taiwan entities. To produce the report, Global Sources interviewed a wide range of suppliers. Rather than focus simply on high-profile makers, we compiled a representative sample of large, midsize and emerging manufacturers. All profiled companies are export-oriented professional suppliers that are verified by Global Sources. Each supplier is confirmed to be authentic with a legally registered business. All companies are visited three or more times by Global Sources to ensure they are export-ready and have real offices and products. The listed contact person has been verified to represent the registered company. In each case, companies were required to answer specific questions designed to verify their manufacturing

and export credentials. All profiled suppliers participated in a survey designed to provide insight into price trends, sales outlook and target markets in the next six months. All survey questions are single choice. Results were calculated based on the actual number of valid responses to each question.

Global Sources supplier rankings

Suppliers are ranked using a 6-star ranking system. Companies with a higher star ranking provide more business information and verification reports on their Global Sources online homepages. Suppliers rated 5 or 6 stars have a Credit Check report from First Advantage or SinoTrust and a Supplier Capability Assessment report provided by Bureau Veritas online. The rankings are correct at the time of publication and may be subject to change.
