JULY, 2025, EUROCAP – The results underscore China’s manufacturing prowess, with over 60% top-rated vehicles originating from Chinese production bases, either through domestic brands or joint ventures.
Geely Auto Group has solidified its position as a safety leader after its portfolio brands- including Geely, Volvo Polestar, Lynk & Co, and Zeekr – collectively earned five five-star ratings in Euro NCAP’s 2025 safety testing.

EDITOR’S NOTE
My commentary outgrew the news itself…
China’s auto expansion into Europe isn’t about flooding the market – it’s sheer industrial momentum, the unstoppable rise of China’s manufacturing scale and precision. When quality meets capacity, the shift isn’t just competitive… it’s inevitable.
Europe’s carmakers face not a “threat,” but an inflection point. The real question isn’t about blocking competition, but how our prestigious automotive leaders will respond to a new paradigm – one where production efficiency, smart tech integration, and safety standards are being radically redefined. When newcomers are outperforming you on safety, design, and technology, it’s not “dumping.” It’s a wake-up call. Time to do your homework.
