As the major part of the Automobile Industry, Automobile Manufacturing has high degree of association and drive power. As a high synthesis industry, Automobile Manufacturing is playing an important role in China's national economy. In the recent years, Automobile Manufacturing is developing rapidly in China. In 2005, rely on 5.71 millions manufacture cumulative production and 5.76 millions sales volumn. China becomes the 4th automotive producing country, the 3rd consumption country and the largest potential market. In 2006, China surpasses Japan at the first time, and became the 2nd most largest automotive consumption country, second only to America. Recently academic circles have had a vast of research on the adjustion optimization and upgrading of China's Automobile Manufacturing structure, industry size variation, industry competitive advantage. And table many countermeasure and porposal about how to promote the development of China's Automobile Manufacturing. But it is worth noting that the research of Automobile Manufacturing's area condition and area developing trend are seldom mentioned in those research. In the background of coordinated development of the economy, research China's Automobile Manufacturing's area condition and area developing trend not only in favor of making region industry developing policy take actions that suit local circumstances, but also has important significance in promoting the development of Automobile Manufacturing itself. This article use four parts to discribe the research and analysis of the area distribution evolvement based on the way of combination of qualitative and quantitative, combination of dynamic and static.Along with the development of Regional Economics and New geonomics, Industry Aggregation growing emphasised by academic. It has been broad researched and deeply investigated by many scholars at home and abroad. Just like Concentration of economic theory by Webber, External economic theory by Michel, New theory of competitive advantage by porter and New Economic Geography Theory by Krugman have laid a solid theoretical foundation for researching the Industry aggregation. At the same time, many scholars specific examples of the industry, from differenct angles of Industrial concentration, regional concentration, the regional distribution of industry empirical analysis industry aggregation.In recent years, China's Automobile Manufacturing developed rapidly, Great changes have also taken placed in distribution pattern. China's Automobile Manufacturing expierenced the process from nonexistence to pass into existence, from small to large, and also expierenced 3 historical stages as creation, growth and overall development.That is Start-up stage from 1950 to 1965, Growth stage from 1966 to 1980, overall development stage from 1981 till now. China's Automobile Manufacturing, at the same time of increasing the firm size, production and sales, technology level, gradually formed in Jilin Province, Yangtze River Delta With Shanghai as the center, Hubei Province, Sichuan Province, Beijing-Tianjin area as the main gathering areas in the automotive manufacturing base. In addition, The Pearl River Delta Region, Anhui and Shandong Province as a new base for the development of the automobile industry is also very rapidly. Automobile manufacturing is a relatively specific industries, First, car is a high-tech and high value-added goods. Only when people reach a certain level of income when the level of demand will have a car, Therefore, changes in market demand and the level of economic development are closely linked to; Second, high capital-intensive automobile manufacturing degree, high entry and exit barriers, strong scale effect. Third, strong relevance of the automotive industry, The development of the automotive manufacturing can stimulate the development of upstream and downstream industries. At the same time it will also affect the production of alternative products industry, the productive capacity of related industries in the region will directly affect the development of the automotive industry in this region. Therefore, the industrial base, foreign investment, government policies, enterprise size and the number will have an important impact on regional gather and distribution. China's automobile manufacturing industry in the overall development stage. The current market structure is mainly the result of Government's long-term control. With the constant improvement of China's market, constant relaxation of the state control .The form of private and foreign investment will continue to enter the automobile market. Resulting in the automotive industry's decline in concentration. In the long run, after intense market competition, as well as the choice of the outcome of the market mechanism, Eventually, China's Automobile manufacturing will become as developed countries such as Europe and America, to be formed as an oligopolistic market structure-based. However, the formation of such a structure is bound through the fierce market competition and structural integration, to achieve the ultimate improvement of industrial concentration. Therefore, the trend of China's automobile industry will spread in recent years. And the degree of dispersion and extension of time is determined by China's economic development speed and government regulation and other factors.
