Automatic transmission difficult to develop Chinese automobile has become a stubborn position in the development of powertrain systems and technological blockade of foreign-funded enterprises on domestic enterprises is very severe, the high price of imported automatic transmission, the cost advantage to compete in the market its own brandThe car companies are difficult to afford.

Domestic automatic passenger cars, equipped with about 80 percent are imported automatic transmission, while the remaining 20 percent mainly from foreign-owned joint venture, with the monopoly of the Chinese market, multinational companies from China a staggering excess profits, their automatic transmission products in China, the price is three times that of its domestic price of imports in recent years, the figures show an annual automatic transmission only imports more than $ 10 billion. More serious is that multinational companies to a strict quota restrictions in order to keep the domestic auto industry's overall competitive advantage, making the Chinese car companies have to give up the production of automatic car automatic transmission imports of Chinese-funded enterprises. Also lead to a lot of independent models in the automatic transmission is matched to the lack of partners, the vehicle automatic transmission has become a bottleneck restricting the development of China's automobile industry.

   
Still a lot of own brand models manual-based, the lack of core technology to China's own automatic transmission production basic in a blank, do not form any competitive pressure on the import of automatic transmission, which makes a greater choice of foreign-funded enterprises in the industrial layout space, they can slow down the pace of local production, at the same time protecting the core technology, to maintain high profits

Become an indispensable part of the vehicle in the automatic transmission as the key vehicle parts, has entered a critical moment in the development, however, the automatic transmission in our country's development is limping, take advantage of large-scale foreign investment in this critical period to enter the Chinese transmission market, and lower the costs. will undoubtedly have a domestic own-brand transmission manufacturers caused tremendous pressure to survive, many of the technological backwardness of the small and medium-sized transmission companies will collapse, the situation is urgent for s
