PARIS, June 18 (Reuters) - There is room for automakers aside from Chinese ones in the Chinese car market, as it is by far the world's largest, BMW BMWG.DE supervisory board chairman Nicolas Peter said on Thursday.
Peter added that BMW remains quite confident in the U.S. market, which is stable and important, but that it is selling less in Europe than it is manufacturing, despite its local strategy.
The European auto market could be up to 60% electric on average by 2035, he also said.
