中国与欧盟达成共识：中国对欧混动与插混车出口将减半，稀土许可同步放宽
欧盟贸易委员谢夫乔维奇（Maros Sefcovic）周五（10月9日）在北京表示，欧盟与中国已达成一项“共同谅解”：中国将放缓对欧盟的混合动力与插电式混合动力汽车出口，相关进口在四年内可能减少数百万辆，降幅超过一半。双方经过约三个月的磋商，谢夫乔维奇此次在北京与中国商务部部长王文涛等官员进行了为期两天的会谈；他没有公布协议的执行细节。
按欧方说法，这项共识还包括改善欧盟企业进入中国市场的机会，以及中国放宽稀土出口许可。当前欧盟对华贸易逆差已膨胀到每天超过10亿欧元（约11.2亿美元）。谢夫乔维奇表示，他认为双方取得了很好的结果，但这“只是第一步”，欧盟领导人下周四将在布鲁塞尔峰会上讨论成果。欧洲议会贸易委员会主席朗格（Bernd Lange）则表示，混动协议还应扩展到其他行业，欧盟也应更有效地动用贸易防御工具。
消息公布后，过去两年受美国关税与中国出口激增双重挤压的欧洲车企股价普遍上涨。中方方面，王文涛向谢夫乔维奇表示，中国不是欧盟问题根源，而是解决问题的伙伴（据中国商务部消息）。

China and EU Reach Understanding to Halve Chinese Hybrid Exports to the Bloc, Ease Rare-Earth Licensing
European Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic said in Beijing on Friday (Oct. 9) that the European Union and China have reached a "shared understanding" under which China will moderate its exports of hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars to the EU — a step that could cut those imports by more than half, by several million cars over four years. The understanding followed about three months of discussions and two days of talks in Beijing with Chinese officials including Commerce Minister Wang Wentao; Sefcovic did not provide implementation details.
According to the EU side, the package also includes improved EU access to China's market and an easing of Chinese licensing for rare-earth exports. The EU's trade deficit with China has swelled to more than 1 billion euros (about $1.12 billion) a day. Sefcovic called the outcome a very good result but "only a first step," with EU leaders set to discuss it at their Brussels summit next Thursday. Bernd Lange, who chairs the European Parliament's trade committee, said the deal should extend to other sectors and that the EU should deploy trade-defense measures more effectively.
Shares of European carmakers, squeezed over the past two years by U.S. tariffs and surging Chinese exports, broadly gained on the news. China's commerce ministry said Wang told Sefcovic that China is not the root cause of the EU's problems, but a partner in solving them.
