The global COVID-19 has been in a repeating phase from 2019 to 2022, which has had a significant negative influence on commerce and the economy worldwide. The impact of the automotive industry has also altered significantly throughout this time. Several nations are scurrying to take advantage of the chance to revive the industrial sector. In an effort to help China’s automotive industry overcome the challenges posed by COVID-19 and actively integrate into the ASEAN market, this project will combine The Belt and Road initiative with an analysis of the current situation and development potential for exporting Chinese automobiles to ASEAN. In light of this, this study’s suggestions and strategies will be formulated to promote the export of Chinese automobiles to ASEAN, ultimately injecting new growth impetus into the industry’s development.
