Germany’s vice chancellor is calling for stronger action to counter what he describes as unfair competition from Chinese electric vehicle manufacturers, warning that their state-backed subsidies and market access could distort global trade. Officials highlight concerns over predatory pricing and regulatory advantages that allow Chinese automakers to undercut European producers while flooding markets with heavily subsidized vehicles. The push comes as Germany seeks to protect its automotive industry amid growing tensions over industrial policy and economic fairness. Analysts suggest the debate could escalate trade disputes if no compromise is reached.
