How China’s EV boom is reinventing automotive logistics, debates industry leaders in

China is reshaping the global EV landscape, producing around 16 million electric vehicles in 2025 — nearly 75% of global production — while exports doubled to a record 2.5 million units.

The panel examines how China’s EV export boom is transforming automotive logistics, from changing China–Europe cargo flows and emerging trade corridors to the impact of tariffs and regulatory barriers. Industry leaders discuss localisation, joint ventures and evolving manufacturing strategies, as well as growing opportunities across Europe, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East. The conversation also looks at how airports, ports and multimodal networks are adapting to rising EV volumes, the growing importance of visibility, compliance, digitalisation and resilience, and whether logistics infrastructure can keep pace with China’s EV-driven growth. The panel also explores the future movement of finished vehicles, batteries, components and aftermarket parts across global markets.
