The rise of aluminum gigacasting in China's automotive sector, especially for new energy vehicles (NEVs), is driven by weight reduction and efficiency needs. Deciding between outsourced supply chains and in-house production raises sustainability and cost concerns.

According to S&P Global Mobility, the production of electric light vehicles in mainland China is expected to exhibit a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16% between 2023 and 2030, reaching a total of 19 million units. The electric vehicle industry in mainland China has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, firmly establishing the country as a global leader in the EV sector. China holds the distinction of being the world's largest EV market, contributing to over half of global EV production.
