PwC also predicted China would hold that position until at least 2050.
Last year, China's gross domestic product measured by PPP reached $21.27 trillion, and that is expected to surge to $58.5 trillion by 2050.
PwC suggested India would surpass the United States to take second place, while the US slips to third by 2050.
