Bohao From Gasgoo

According to the Gasgoo Research Institute, China's NEV passenger vehicle electrification supply chain maintained a highly concentrated yet evolving competitive landscape in January–May 2026. Leading suppliers continued to dominate core components such as power batteries, electric drive motors, and electric motor controllers, while automakers further expanded their in-house capabilities in power battery packs, BMS, and multi-in-one main drive system (dedicated to BEVs). As a result, competition is increasingly shifting from individual components to system integration, vertical integration, and full-vehicle collaboration.
