The narrative seems to be that cheap Chinese cars threaten the rest of the worlds automotive industry.

A slightly different hypothesis: Car needs are increasingly different between regions. To exaggerate it: US wants huge pickups, Germany wants fast sedans, China wants cars with entertainment in traffic jams. Since manufacturers are heavily influenced by their home country, they do worse elsewhere now.
