China intends to remove the restrictions on the share of foreign companies in joint ventures for the production of cars by 2022, which will provide significant support to foreign automakers in the Chinese market. The National Development and Reform Commission of the People's Republic of China stated that already in 2018 limits on the share of foreigners in joint ventures for the production of cars operating on new energy sources will be canceled.

Starting from 2022, foreign automakers will also be allowed to create in China more than 2 joint ventures.
