# Chinese electric vehicles: offensive on the South Korean market > In South Korea, registrations of Chinese electric vehicles more than doubled year-on-year, reaching 112,417 units from January to September, bringing their market share to 43.5%, against 48.7% for local models. This growth, driven by BYD and Zeekr and by the announced arrival of other Chinese manufacturers, worries the national industry, which cites up to 410,000 jobs at risk. Seoul is adjusting its policy with a production tax credit for electric vehicles and a subsidy budget of 2 trillion won for around 430,000 vehicles next year. The main difference lies in the role of the countries: China is the home market of the expanding manufacturers, while South Korea is the receiving market where industrial tensions and support measures are concentrated; the US and UK coverage does not include a distinct national sub-event in the provided elements. **In brief**: Ongoing story bringing together 25 events involving BYD, Hyundai, Kia and 10 more, in 2 countries (Corée du Sud, Chine), followed from 1 November 2026 to 4 November 2026. 78 articles from 15 sources (sales and market, regulation and tariffs, plants, jobs and earnings and 2 more); last updated on 4 November 2026 at 04:51.
