Why Are Latin American Buyers Bulk-Purchasing Chinese Electric Vehicles?

As Mexico's government announces a 30% import tariff hike on gasoline vehicles starting in 2026 and Cuba launches its “Public Transport Electrification 2030” plan, Chinese electric vehicles are emerging as the golden choice for Latin American businesses due to these core advantages:

1. Tropical-Specific Technology

Battery packs feature liquid cooling systems, maintaining <15% range degradation in 45°C environments.

Motor power design ensures zero loss at Mexico City's 2,000-meter altitude.

2. Infrastructure-Friendly Charging

Compatible with Cuba's low-voltage grid (charges via standard 110V/8A outlets).

Compatible with Mexico's CFE charging stations and residential solar systems.

Despite fluctuating tariff policies, bilateral trade remains favorable. During policy-driven periods, Mexico offers import duty exemptions for EVs, while Cuban state enterprises receive 15% price subsidies on purchases (requires NOM-163 certification).
