Japanese manufacturers are facing strong competition from China in the rail car market U.
NEW YORK Japanese manufacturers of railway rolling stock are up facing increasing competition from its Chinese rivals in the United States who are preparing for the opening of an expected bid later this year for cars that will be used on the rail link high speed expected in California.
Last year, Beijing orchestrated policy to push exports of railway, China CNR Corp largest manufacturer of rolling stock in the world, surpassed Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. and other bidders to provide vehicles in a project renewal of the Boston subway system.



Price per Chinese players seems to be a major obstacle for the Japanese leaders, we can lose a market following the similar price of Chinese companies dumping offers, said an official at a Japanese manufacturer.
CNR asked 566 6 million to replace a total of 284 vehicles on the orange and red lines run by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, which was about 37 percent below the offer Kawasaki.
Chinese society is triumphant in its US contract, saying on its website, CN subway cars will land in the United States and the realization of covering six continents.
According to official documents on the offer obtained by Kyodo News, the offer of CNR was significantly lower than the 720 6 million placed runner-up Rotem Co. of South Korea.
Kawasaki has delivered a 904 9 million offer, while Bombardier Inc. came to a little over 1 billion, nearly double CNR s and the highest among the four that points to the price range between six companies in offering that closed in May 2014.
CNR is scheduled to deliver a test vehicle for the orange line at the beginning of 2018 and the red line around a year later, followed by mass production units to ship by 2021.



It's a shame because we were so focused on winning this order, but we could not compete with the NRC on prices, a Kawasaki official said.
A widespread in Japanese industry view is that Boston's victory would prove to be costly for the CNR, as vehicles must be assembled close to meet the requirement of job creation in the contract and that both lines are vehicles that vary in size.
An official of the Japan Railway has even suggested that the offer of CNR is undoubtedly a deficit deal.
Kawasaki entered the U S market and has experienced rapid growth in the quality of strength and reliability in meeting deliveries.



The company is credited with helping to improve the New York subway image led by Metropolitan Transportation Authority of the city after his first order of vehicles in 1982.
Kawasaki is the largest vehicle supplier in New York, having delivered more than 2000 units responsible Kawasaki is proud to help build New York subway's reputation for reliable performance.
Kawasaki has also won a contract to supply up to 748 vehicles worth about 1 48 billion for the Washington subway system D C, where European manufacturers were the dominant suppliers.
Its vehicles started running in 2014 if all cars are delivered, Kawasaki will represent the majority of metro vehicles in the capital U S.
We have made progress in the quality and technology with Japanese railway companies we serve are very discerning and demanding about quality, said Hiroji Iwasaki, an executive with Kawasaki.



Meanwhile, CN, the largest manufacturer of rolling stock by sales of the world, announced in December that it merges with CSR Corp second largest manufacturer, also of China, under an initiative promoted by the government Chinese The new entity should be called CRRC Corp.
responsible for Chinese rolling stock market overseas discs were dented by a high-speed rail accident in 2011 in Zhejiang province that Beijing says killed 40 people.
However, in recent years they have intensified their efforts to obtain overseas orders Merging the two Chinese giants likely strengthen their competitiveness against Japanese rolling stock companies.
By size, Japanese manufacturers are not in the league of CNR or CSR, the first two in the world in sales in the business year 2012, excluding sales of components and maintenance revenue, according to data published in May by the German railway board SCI Verkehr GmbH.
None of the Japanese manufacturers, including Kawasaki, Hitachi Ltd. Nippon Sharyo Ltd. Kinki Sharyo Transportation Engineering Co and Japan Co was placed in the top 10.



A Japanese railway executive says that Chinese companies were helped by Kawasaki and East Japan Railway Co JR East to make much progress on the world market.
Kawasaki and JR East provided China the technology that underlies the E2 series Shinkansen trains operated by JR East.
Yoshiyuki Kasai, chairman of honor is apparently frustrated by the increased presence Co JR Central Central Japan Railway, the Chinese players while Japanese manufacturers are struggling, saying the transfer of technology by Kawasaki and JR East China equivalent to selling your country.
Beijing said the bullet train service in the country that has opened between the capital and Shanghai is based on technology developed single home, although many experts believe it is largely relied on the expertise of Japan and the Europe.



Following the Boston metro Agreement, a group led by China Railway Construction Corp has won an order for the first high-speed rail project between Mexico City and Queretaro Mexico in November.
This agreement was subsequently canceled facing an outcry from opposition MPs who accused the government of promoting consortium led by China without allowing other companies to bid in an auction limited window.
For Japanese manufacturers, the stakes are high in the high-speed rail plan California An alliance of Japanese companies, including JR East, Kawasaki Heavy, Sharyo Nippon, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. and Hitachi intend to promote the Shinkansen technology for the project U S.
Masaki Ogata, Vice President of JR East, said that California is a region prone to earthquakes and also tightens environmental regulations Shinkansen has all the advantages such as fully fledged measures for the preparation of earthquake safety , noise and environmental conservation, he said.



But his rivals are likely to show the Japanese technology of potential costs if on prices, Chinese manufacturers are a threat, said a leader of a consortium of companies.

Japanese manufacturers are facing strong competition from China U-Japanese manufacturers face stiff.
