Risks
Intense Competition: The market is crowded with domestic and international players, making it difficult to gain and retain market share.
Dependency on Subsidies: A potential reduction or withdrawal of government subsidies could significantly impact affordability and demand for EVs.
Battery Technology & Supply Chain: Reliance on imported battery cells or critical components, exposing the company to supply chain disruptions, geopolitical risks, and raw material price volatility.
Charging Infrastructure: Insufficient or slow development of charging infrastructure can hinder widespread EV adoption.
Customer Adoption & Range Anxiety: Slower-than-expected consumer acceptance due to concerns about range, charging time, or upfront costs.
Capital Intensity: The EV manufacturing business requires substantial capital investment in R&D, production facilities, and distribution.
Regulatory Changes: Evolving safety standards, import tariffs, or other regulations could impact operations and profitability.
