China’s economy showed continued resilience in April 2025, outperforming forecasts and highlighting the strength of its industrial base and emerging technologies. This is reported by
Global Times, a partner of TV BRICS.

Official data released by the National Bureau of Statistics confirmed that value-added industrial output rose by 6.1 per cent year-on-year, surpassing analyst projections of 5.5 per cent.

Growth was largely driven by advanced manufacturing. Output of 3D printing equipment soared by 60.7 per cent, industrial robots increased by 51.5 per cent, and new energy vehicles recorded a 38.9 per cent rise.

These figures underscore China’s accelerating transition toward innovation-led development and green transformation, the source claims.

Looking ahead, authorities intend to accelerate the formation of a new development paradigm, deepen domestic reforms, and enhance international cooperation. Policy focus will remain on employment, business stability, and market confidence, with an emphasis on high-quality, sustainable growth.
