    Second, a quarter of this year, Liaoning Province, a substantial increase in imports of automotive parts main reasons:

    (A) of the domestic car market is booming this year, a quarter of auto parts imports to maintain growth in our province the main reason

    Last year, China ranked the world's No. 1 auto producer and the largest new car sales market. However, as China's auto production has not fully realize the localization assembly, engine and other key components are still dependent on foreign imports. Liaoning vehicle production line model covers Japan and South Korea, the U.S. Department and the European system, most of these cars in the car most of the parts or the need to import key components to the assembly, the province of multinational companies, especially multinational corporations significant increase in demand for auto parts, thereby stimulating rapid growth in imports of auto parts.

    (B) the automobile industry group, Liaoning begun to take shape, bringing rapid development of the automotive industry

    As a manufacturing province, Liaoning's auto industry has a very solid foundation, the provincial government through increased efforts to support the automotive industry in the technological transformation of capital, R & D funding, policy support and other key enterprises to tilt further to form automobile industry cluster, while supporting parts supply system is taking shape, the major multinational auto parts companies to accelerate investment in the expansion of Liaoning, to a certain extent, stimulated the import of auto parts.

    Third, issues of concern and Suggestions

    (A) of the core auto parts in China long-term lack of technology. Restricting the development of key components behind the development of China's automobile industry is a fundamental problem. At present, China auto parts industry enterprises in the traditional, low value-added parts and components has been supporting the formation of a certain size, but high-tech, high value-added components, especially electronics components, such as air conditioning, power steering, Electronic braking, suspension systems, engine control, still basic by foreign owned enterprises or joint ventures controlled, multinational auto parts companies monopolized the field of high-end pattern has been criticized by people. The problem is still the key components of auto parts companies and automotive industry problem.

    (B) own-brand car companies and parts manufacturers have not formed their own brands support each other. Automobile companies in China, the United States Department of foreign brands of parts procurement ratio is 100%, Ashkenazi and Japanese parts procurement ratio of foreign brands were 88.9% and 89.5%, own-brand car companies purchasing foreign brands of parts ratio is 52.8%. Own brands in the automotive industry is not a large area cultivated with the development of R & D capabilities of the system provider, the core components such as engines still rely on more foreign enterprises to supply.
