While attention is focused on collaborations between traditional automakers and Chinese manufacturers, another trend is unfolding: major automotive groups from Europe, the United States, Japan, and South Korea are leveraging their joint venture factories in China to produce models and export them worldwide. These foreign brands originally sought market share in China, but as local brands expand their presence and foreign brand appeal declines, the resulting overcapacity in China is shifting toward exports.

Geely Group currently leads in the number of models produced in China and exported. Its Lotus Eletre, Lotus Emeya, Polestar 2, Polestar 5, smart #1, smart #3, smart #5, Volvo ES90, Volvo EX30, and Volvo S90 are all manufactured in China and sold abroad. General Motors and Hyundai follow closely, each exporting seven models. General Motors actively deploys China-made models to the Latin American market, including the Chevrolet Spark EUV, Groove, Aveo, Captiva, Captiva EV, S10 Max, N400, and Buick Envision. Hyundai exports the Elantra, Tucson, Sonata, Mufasa, Custo, Santa Fe, and Elexio produced in China.
