Tariffs of Up to 25% on Chinese EV Manufacturers Won’t Change Our Growth Outlook
Vincent Sun
Shares of Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers fell 4%-9% on June 12 in Hong Kong on news that the European Commission will provisionally apply additional tariffs of up to 25% on imported electric vehicles made in China starting next month, compared with the 10% standard import duties on EVs. The European Union launched an investigation in October 2023 into subsidies given to EV automakers in China. The EU accused Chinese automakers of unfairly benefiting from incentives and support from the Chinese government and such subsidies have raised overcapacity concerns. The commission alleged that subsidized car imports posed an economic threat to the healthy development of the EV industry in the EU.
LI is trading at a 168% premium.

Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls
Li Auto’s strong product capacity, targeting family car users and focusing on the mid- to large-size SUV segment, will ensure the success of its future models, including but not limited to extended range electric vehicles, or EREVs.
Bears
Li Auto’s range-extension vehicles will face increasing pressure as the industry moves to pure electric models, while the company lacks track record in pure electric cars.
