April 8, 2025 – SAIC-GM-Wuling (SGMW), General Motors’ Chinese joint venture, has introduced the Wuling Hongguang EREV, redefining affordability in the extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) segment. Priced from just 68,800 yuan ($9,400 USD), it claims the title of the cheapest range-extended minivan on the market, making this technology—once exclusive to premium brands like Li Auto and Aito—accessible to the masses.
The Hongguang EREV, launched under the popular Wuling brand, offers a remarkable mixed range of up to 1,000 km, complemented by a 50 km CLTC pure electric range. Available in a price range of 68,800 to 73,800 yuan ($9,400–$10,100 USD), this minivan brings practical, long-distance capability to budget-conscious families and small businesses. By blending a compact electric powertrain with a range-extending generator, SGMW has crafted a versatile, cost-effective solution that challenges the luxury-dominated EREV landscape, further cementing Wuling’s reputation for value-driven innovation in China’s bustling EV market.

April 8, 2025 – BYD’s latest electric offering, the Qin L EV, has taken the mid-size sedan market by storm, racking up 10,089 orders within its first week of launch, according to the company’s official Weibo post. This pure electric vehicle (EV) has emerged as a standout contender in the affordable family sedan segment, blending cutting-edge technology with a striking design at a compelling price point of 119,800 to 139,800 yuan ($16,500–$19,300 USD). Notably, it’s the first EV in the 100,000–150,000 yuan range to feature an 800V high-voltage system, setting a new benchmark for its class.
Built on BYD’s advanced e-Platform 3.0 Evo, the Qin L EV sports the company’s fresh “Loong (Dragon) Face” aesthetic, with dimensions of 4,720 mm in length, 1,880 mm in width, and 1,495 mm in height, riding on a generous 2,820 mm wheelbase. Compared to its hybrid sibling, the Qin L DM-i, the EV variant boasts a sleeker, more futuristic look, amplifying its all-electric persona.
Priced competitively, the Qin L EV comes in three trims, all equipped with BYD’s “God’s Eye” C (DiPilot 100) intelligent driving system—a rare inclusion at this price tier. The entry-level model features a rear-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor producing 110 kW (148 hp) and 220 Nm of torque, paired with a 46.08 kWh Blade lithium iron phosphate battery. This setup delivers a CLTC range of 470 km (approximately 390 km in real-world conditions), making it a practical choice for daily commutes and beyond.
The Qin L EV’s early success underscores BYD’s dominance in the affordable EV space, blending innovation, style, and value to capture the attention of budget-conscious buyers seeking a modern electric sedan.

China Imposes New Tax on American Goods in Response to Trump Tariffs.

Yesterday, the Chinese government announced a new 34% import tax on all goods from the United States, including vehicles, as a countermeasure to the recent tariff policies introduced by the Trump administration. Set to take effect on April 10, this move will significantly raise the cost of American sports cars like the Corvette C8 and the new 5.0-liter Mustang. The combined tax rate on the Corvette C8 Z06 is expected to reach 200%, pushing its price in China above $220,000, not including dealer markups.
Back in February, China had already increased tariffs by an additional 10% on U.S.-made vehicles with engines larger than 2.5 liters. This measure also affected German luxury models manufactured in the U.S., such as the BMW X6, X7, and Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class, which are among the top sellers in China’s luxury SUV market. In 2024, the Mercedes-Benz GLS sold 13,985 units, securing second place, while the BMW X7 recorded 7,331 units sold, placing it third.
The price of the Ford F-150 has also been heavily impacted by the new tariff, though its sales in China were already declining. In 2023, 4,954 units were sold, dropping to just 2,227 in 2024—a 50% decrease. Beyond pricing, this slump is largely attributed to the rise of Chinese luxury off-road models like BYD’s Yangwang U8 and GWM’s Shanhai Pao (also known globally as the GWM Cannon Alpha), which are gaining traction among domestic buyers.
The 34% import tax will deal a major blow to the import dealership business at Tianjin Port, China’s largest hub for imported luxury cars. In 2019, the port handled an annual import volume of 150,000 vehicles. However, with the rise of domestic luxury brands like Yangwang, sales plummeted to approximately 39,300 units in 2023. The latest tariffs will undoubtedly deliver yet another severe setback to an already struggling market.
