This is a district-level (sub-provincial) industrial-support package from Huadu District, Guangzhou — a mid-tier automotive manufacturing hub in Guangdong province (home to GAC-Toyota and other NEV/component plants). The document number is 花府办规〔2025〕11号 ("Huafubanggui [2025] No. 11"), issued by the Huadu District Government Office and published via both the district (huadu.gov.cn) and the Guangzhou municipal unified policy-document portal (gz.gov.cn). It took effect immediately on issuance (31 December 2025) and runs for a two-year term (through ~December 2027), consistent with GTA's tracked revocation date.
The measure bundles roughly a dozen distinct subsidy/incentive instruments across the NEV and intelligent-connected-vehicle value chain: manufacturer R&D and market-promotion grants, an autonomous-vehicle (L4+) fleet-scale bonus tied to unit counts and effective operating kilometres, core-component investment rebates, battery-production scale bonuses, a dedicated RMB 200m "vehicle-road- cloud" (车路云一体化) integration pilot-zone fund covering 200+ test vehicles and ~2,000 onboard-unit (OBU) retrofits, per-enterprise subsidies for autonomous taxi/ride-hailing and freight fleets meeting minimum unit/mileage thresholds, discounted industrial land (floor priced at 70% of benchmark), and facility/ rent subsidies for manufacturers.
GTA logs this as five separate "state aid, unspecified" / production-subsidy interventions under one state act (96185); this filing consolidates the underlying single government instrument rather than filing each GTA sub-intervention line separately, to avoid duplicate action records for what is one gazetted measure.
Severity is set at the low end of the moderate band: this is a single district's local-government subsidy package (not a provincial or national instrument), with per-enterprise caps in the tens/low-hundreds of RMB millions — material for firms locating in Huadu but small relative to national NEV industrial-policy instruments (e.g. MIIT-level programmes or the national NEV purchase-tax exemption). quant basis reflects the disclosed per-instrument caps (RMB 100m/50m/20m/60m/150m/300m and the RMB 200m pilot-zone allocation).
