From January 14 to 17, 2026, Canadian Prime Minister Carney was invited to pay an official visit to China. The two sides reached a broad consensus on deepening economic and trade cooperation, signed the China-Canada Roadmap for Economic and Trade Cooperation, and formed preliminary joint arrangements on handling bilateral economic and trade issues, including two new adjustments to import tariffs on electric vehicles and agricultural products. Tariffs on electric vehicle imports from China were reduced to 6.1 percent This includes a tariff quota agreement for electric vehicles from China. Specific details are below: Canada will allow up to 49,000 Chinese electric vehicles per year to enter the Canadian market, which will be subject to a most-favored-nation (MFN) tariff rate of 6.1%. This agreement marks the end of Canada’s policy of imposing a 100 percent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles in favor of a tariff quota system. Canada says the quota is equivalent to the volume of Chinese EV exports to Canada before the trade friction in 2023-2024, which is about less than 3% of the Canadian new car market. Canada said it expects that within three years, the agreement will facilitate the establishment of joint ventures by Chinese companies in Canada, promote the development of a local electric vehicle supply chain and, within five years, enable more than 50 percent of imported vehicles to become affordable electric vehicles with an import price of less than C$35,000, providing more low-cost options for Canadian consumers.

On November 27, Leapmotor officially launched its all-new pure-electric sedan, the Leapmotor Lafa5. The new model comes in five configurations with limited-time pricing ranging from ￥92,800($13,000) to ￥116,800($16,500). Unlike Leapmotor’s A, B, C, and D series, the Lafa5 is designed and positioned specifically for young consumers, emphasizing both individuality and practicality. At first glance, the Leapmotor Lafa5 evokes a wide-body coupe aesthetic. Its dimensions of 4430mm/1880mm/1520mm yield a width-to-height ratio of 1.237. The front fascia features a sporty design with a blacked-out, full-width light strip and a sloping profile. The profile showcases frameless doors and hidden door handles. The rear end is slightly rounded but echoes the front with its own blacked-out, full-width taillights. Furthermore, the Leapmotor Lafa5 offers six body colors—Electric Yellow, Wind-Racing Gray, Starry Night Blue, Morgan Pink, Galaxy Silver, and Metallic Black—tailored to meet the personalized demands of young consumers. Despite its sporty coupe positioning, the Leapmotor Lafa5 doesn’t compromise on practicality, boasting a wheelbase of 2735mm. The trunk offers a standard capacity of 435L, expandable to 1400L with the rear seats folded down—sufficient for daily commuting and occasional transport of large items. The cabin features 25 storage compartments. The “Magic Extension Island” in front of the passenger seat includes six standardized ports compatible with over 30 accessories, further expanding usage scenarios. Additional amenities include 50W wireless phone charging, a panoramic sunroof, and ventilated/heated front seats. Intelligent features form another core highlight of the Leapmotor Lafa5. Mid-to-low trim levels utilize the Qualcomm 8155 chip, while the high-end variant upgrades to the Qualcomm 8295 chip for a smoother infotainment experience. All models run the Leapmotor OS 4.0 system, integrating dual AI large models—DeepSeek and Tongyi Qianwen—to support natural interactions like dialect recognition and continuous dialogue. The top-tier Max variant further incorporates LiDAR and a Qualcomm 8650 chip, enabling intelligent highway and city driving assistance. Powertrain options include two power configurations.

Continuously Promote the Healthy Development of Used Car Exports (V) Enhance Enterprises’ International Business Capabilities. Local commerce departments should fully utilize various trade promotion platforms to support enterprises in exploring diversified markets. Enterprises with the necessary conditions should be encouraged to establish public exhibition and trading markets in key markets, expanding comprehensive services such as marketing and warehousing. A sound training system should be established to guide enterprises in conducting business in compliance with regulations through policy briefings and experience exchanges. (VI) Improve the Export Support System. Local commerce departments should focus on long-term development, guiding export enterprises to work with automobile manufacturers and overseas importers to provide after-sales service, ensuring the supply of repair parts and technical support. Exchanges and cooperation between export enterprises and supply chain partners such as logistics, finance, and third-party quality assurance agencies should be promoted. The development of specialized trading markets for used car exports should be explored, providing “one-stop” services for used car export preparation, testing, customs declaration, and logistics, providing support and guarantees for the healthy and sustainable development of used car exports.
