BYD is rolling out new PHEV models with better fuel economy and specifications at lower prices, such as the Qin Plus DM-i 2023, Song Plus DM-i 2023, Frigate 07, Tang DM-p; we believe these will disrupt China’s ICE-car market by taking a chunk of market share from JV brands, especially the Japanese brands. We propose a pair trade of long BYD and short GAC and Zhongsheng. Maintain UNDERWEIGHT. Top picks: BYD, CATL, NXS and Minth. Downgrade GAC and Zhongsheng to SELL.

China’s PV retail sales slumped 38% yoy and 41% mom to 1.3 units in Jan 23, in line with estimate, due to the Chinese New Year holiday and front-loading effect from the expiry of stimulus.

We keep our estimate on 2023 China’s EV sales growth at 30%. Maintain UNDERWEIGHT. Top picks: CATL and Ningbo Xusheng.

China Automobile Weekly: Tesla’s price cut triggers a price war in Chi...

Tesla’s 6-13% price cut on 6 Jan 23 has triggered a price war in China’s EV market. Since then, two Chinese OEMs − Aito and XPeng − have cut prices by around 10%, and we expect more OEMs to follow suit due to weak demand after the expiry of EV purchase subsidies. We keep our expectation of an EV sales recovery by Mar 23 on the abating front-loading effect. Maintain UNDERWEIGHT. Top picks: CATL, Fuyao Glass and Desay SV. We add Ningbo Xusheng to our top-pick list.

Looking ahead, we expect exports’ share in China’s EV sales volume to soar from 16- 17% in 2021-22 to over 20% in 2023, as Chinese branded EVs are gaining popularity fast in developed countries. However, auto sales in China dropped as expected in the first week of Jan 23, due to the expiry of stimulus. We expect China’s auto sales to recover strongly from Mar 23 when the front-loading effect and epidemic fade. Maintain UNDERWEIGHT. Top picks: CATL, Fuyao Glass and Desay SV.

CATL, Fuyao Glass and Xusheng remain our top picks, and we add Desay into our list of top picks. Upgrade Li Auto from HOLD to BUY on valuation.
