For years, the global auto industry focused on matching China's lower manufacturing costs. That battle has changed. Today, the real competitive threat is China Speed—the ability to design, engineer, test, and launch new vehicles in a fraction of the time required by many legacy automakers.
In this episode of TechMobility Topics, I explain how Chinese manufacturers are accelerating development through closer supplier collaboration, standardized vehicle architectures, simplified engineering requirements, and rapid iteration. More importantly, we explore why speed has become the industry's newest competitive advantage—and what established domestic automakers must do to remain relevant in an increasingly fast-moving global marketplace.
