摘要

Abstract

This study

set against the backdrop of the implementation of the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)

explores the challenges it poses to the export competitiveness and green transformation of Chinese automobile enterprises. Using SAIC Motor as a case study

it systematically analyzes its practices and response strategies in the ESG domain. The research indicates that the EU carbon tariff presents multiple challenges for Chinese automakers through increased carbon costs

strengthened trade barriers

and accelerated pressure for green transformation. SAIC Motor has effectively enhanced its green competitiveness and adaptability to the international market by constructing a "1+3" collaborative optimization model. This model is based on a comprehensive ESG governance system

combined with a circular economy model

carbon footprint certification

and climate action across the entire chain. This case provides a practical pathway and theoretical reference for Chinese automakers to achieve low-carbon transformation and sustainable development under the carbon tariff framework.
