vehicle for virtually every budget. China is famous for its innovations, the Chinese economy is
dominated by the service sector and it contributed as huge amount in the growth and
development of the economy. Before diversifying into the Chinese market it is essential for Elio
Motors to analyse the market condition as to conducting their business operations in effective
manner. PESTLE analysis is the most appropriate strategy to analyse the Chinese business
environment. It has various elements, which are described as below:
Political Factor: China is the most powerful country on the ground of advanced
technologies and innovation, It also considered as the fourth largest country in the globe by the
land area. Political factor is the primary aspect of environmental analysis as it is the most
essential tool which has a direct influence on the business activities. Political factor is based on
two major elements like government regulation and legal issues (Mao and et. al. 2012). Both the
1

formal as well as informal regulations, which firms needs to be abide by, impact the country. The
government of China is concern on promoting the rules and laws. After the revolution of the

Economic Factor: China is the second largest economy in the globe by the analysis of
the nominal GDP grew by 6.7% in the last financial year (Reuters, 2018) Thus, it is the largest
economy on the basis of purchasing power of the people. The total unemployment rate in China
has been constant at around four percent over the last few years. This can be wholly analysed
through the fact that due to its socialist heritage, full employment policy historically has
performed a major role in economic considerations of the Chinese government. The total number
of employed persons in China has increased to 77640 Tens of Thousands in the year of 2017
from 77603 Tens of thousands in the year of 2016. The major motive of each country is to
develop their economic condition through enhancing their industrial operations. The
organisations are concern on manufacturing their products in China, because in China the labour
cost is less than the other country which provides with an opportunity to produce products which
are cost effective.
Social Factors: China is the most popular country in the globe with a population over 1.4
billion. The social and cultural elements of China plays an essential role, as the demographics is

amount in the education of the people. The income level is high as most of the population are
educated and employed which states that they will be able to avail products offered by the
company. The business expansion of Elio Motors in China is beneficial for the firm as well as
the country. The social factor has involve various elements like life style, education level,
religion, emigration etc. It is also important for Elio Motors to analyse the social and culture
aspects before diversifying the business in China. In China mostly people are literate and they
are very much concern about the environmental factors (Pan, Lu and Lei, 2017). Elio Motors has
plan to launch a new vehicle which is not much costly and affordable by people from each
segment. The major benefits of expansion in China is that, the production is possible in very less
2

cost as in China the labour cost is low. Local people get opportunities for job and use their skills
in betterment of business operations. China is famous for its advancement and Chinese
companies are concern on attempting their targets within the desired time frame. The major
issues which are faced by the company due to the expansion in China is finding a large space to
factory setup, as it is difficult to find a space for their manufacturing purpose. Language and
communication is an another issue which is faced by Elio Motors in China, as people from
different regions, norms and culture are live their, so it is hard for the company or its
management to analyse the needs and wants of people at market place.
Technological Factor: This is also an another essential aspect of environmental analysis,
which plays vast role in determining the technological implementation within the environment.
Technology is the most important component which plays an effective role in developing the
business operations at global level. China is basically famous for its high tech technological
advancement and known to adapt to innovation very easily. The major purpose of Elio Motors
behind the expansion of business in China is that the people in China are more literate and
having vast knowledge in automation which can be helpful for a business in successful
expansion and enhanced sales.

environment severely. Air, water pollution, industrial waste, deforestation, climate change etc.

has taken various initiatives like manufacturing pollution free vehicles, use organic products etc.

pollution free which create benefits for the environment of the China. In china people are very

comfortable. In China the organisations are concern on creating new and advance products which
are environmental friendly as to providing benefits to the environment. The company is planned
to expand the business in China and they are plan to introduce a new environmental friendly
vehicle which is effective in saving the environment from the pollution.
