  19. Important Trends and Facts Depleting Natural resources Increased environmental and alternative energy focus Strong competition on Innovation and quality (trying to outdo each other) “Copy and Improve” 2005 Market 10 million to grow to estimated 75 million in 2015 Increased competition due to market size, everyone is going to want a bigger share Overall slow-down in vehicle sales Tax and subsidies for small vehicles to end resulting in sales increasing during December, and slowing during first quarter of 2011 Rising oil prices, call for better fuel efficiency Growing Middle Class Expanding highway and road Network Small cars = 2/3 of total cars sold, GM = 46% share Vehicle Penetration = 5/1000 In 2007 8.5 million Chinese people bought cars (5,5 mil were private, and 3 were for commercial purposes) 52 Carmakers in China, Government focus on Concentration (International companies 85% market share) Foreign companies (not china based) are buying parts from china increasingly SAIC bought $500 000 000 worth of shares in GM Growth of Vehicle Market 46% from 08-09 (due to poor sales in 2008 – recession) Population in China 1 330 141 295
  20. Green Concerns about pollution and fossil fuels deepen Centre for advanced auto research that will be part of a $250 million corporate campus GM is building in Shanghai. Collaboration with SAIC, Government and academic institutions about ways the country can reduce its reliance on fossil fuels Chevrolet Volt (Best available electric vehicle) With auto sales this year up about 25% over last year's pace, the government and consumers increasingly are worried about environmental damage. And China is only at the early stages of its adoption of the automobile.

  25. Key : High - Medium - Low Porters 5 forces 6 3 8 9 10
  26. Geographic Distribution of Producers
  27. Distribution of Local Suppliers
  28. Purchasing Power of the customer Driven by the car price relative to the household disposable income and ability to finance or lease vehicles through financial service providers Growing incomes of China, especially the emerging urban middle class Far greater selection of vehicles in the market, stimulating interest and demand Trend towards smaller sedan type vehicles
  29. Demographics Population 1,330,141,295 (July 2010 est.) Age structure 0-14 years: 19.8% (male 140,877,745/female 124,290,090) 15-64 years: 72.1% (male 495,724,889/female 469,182,087) 65 years and over: 8.1% (male 51,774,115/female 56,764,042) (2010 est.)

  30. Key : High - Medium - Low SWOT Break down of Production costs of GM
  31. Contents
  32. Challenges Tax and Subsidy Policy Changing 60% of sales resulting from SMGW (Wuling) Pending Price war (Many competitors and ever decreasing prices, quality no more differentiating factor) Broad Range of vehicles (may not be able to be competitive in price war) Meeting Demand (Balance growth) Margin on small cars THIN! Maintaining Sales Growth (55% higher in 2009 than 2008) Aggressive expansion by competitors Innovation theft
  33. Intellectual Property The Gm Spark was released 6months later at a price of $1500 more than the Chery QQ Due to more expensive assembling cost, higher price and later release the Chery QQ outsold the GM Spark by 6 – 1. Incident was of particular interest as the JV partner of GM in China, SAIC, also hold a 20% stake in Chery QQ filed a patent in China a year prior while GM never filled a patent for their design in China and therefore had no claim in court Chery denied having copied the GM design, claiming they had developed the QQ independently “with a little inspiration from the GM Spark” China's SAIC buys $500M in GM stock – 18th of November 2010
