After the rapid development in the golden period, Chinese automotive industry has made remarkable achievements. As one of the pillar industries of the country, the automotive industry has been listed as a major development direction of the country, and its benign development cannot be separated from the regulation and guidance of national policies. In the past four decades of reform and opening-up, China has successively introduced and implemented a series of policies and regulations. They have played decisive roles in regulating order of auto industry, optimizing the industry structure, resolving industry disputes, and promoting the sustained and healthy development of the industry. In recent years, the development of the automotive industry has entered a new normal, the market has changed from high-speed growth to low- and medium-speed growth. The competition in the industry has been further intensified, and the profitability has been severely affected. Comparing with the developed countries, the problems of China’s auto industry, such as the large-scale but not strong development level, is also highlighted. However, the development of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change has created an important opportunity for the development of the auto industry, such as the adjustment and optimization of the industrial structure and improvement of the development environment. Therefore, the role of the government’s macroeconomic regulation and guidance should be played continuously in optimizing the policy system, improving the industrial innovation system, establishing a rule-of-law management system, to nurture stronger Chinese brands, strengthen innovation in technology, management, production methods, and business models, and to create a unified, opening, and orderly environment to improve the international competitiveness and influence of Chinese auto industry.
