Acquisition or defunct subsidiary

Joint ventures

In the past, a foreign car manufacturer had to pair with a local car company to produce cars locally, and was allowed at most 2 joint ventures in China. This restriction is to be loosened by 2022,[7] and is already loosened for 'new energy' vehicle corporations. Volkswagen, for example, has already established three joint ventures (being FAW, SAIC and JAC).

Below is a list of major car company joint ventures ever existed in Mainland China (truck and coach JVs not included). Early 1980s-90s CKD assembly agreements are not included as the production numbers are typically negligible compared to later JV efforts. Technology transfer agreements to domestic brands are also not included.

Current and Defunct Global Car Manufacturer Joint Ventures in Mainland China
  • Tesla is currently the only foreign car manufacturer that exclusively owns a factory in Mainland China, instead of having a joint venture with or being a subsidiary of any local auto company. Their sole factory is located in Shanghai.
