Batches of vehicles produced in China were shipped via the port of Lianyungang to Ecuador and from Yueqing Bay port in Wenzhou to the Middle East, with over 2,800 vehicles and the opening of a new ro-ro link. In October, four Chinese manufacturers exceeded 100,000 sales abroad, and manufacturers are seeking to secure their own maritime transport capacities.
