Foreign automakers call on China to relax electric vehicle sales quota system
|
In a June 18 email to Miao Wei, China's Minister of Industry and Information Technology, global automakers weighed in on key provisions of China's latest new energy vehicle policy. The new policy calls for hybrid and electric vehicles to account for one-fifth of China's auto sales by 2025, with sales quotas to start in 2018. "The proposed implementation dates cannot be met. If not adjusted, this will have a blanket impact on the product lines of most automakers doing business in China," the email said. "At a minimum, the dates need to be delayed by a year or some flexibility needs to be added." The email was signed by the American Automotive Policy Council (AAPC), the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA), and the Korea Automobile Manufacturers Association (KAMA). In addition to reducing pollution, China is also looking to gain an advantage with electric vehicles. For years, European, American and Japanese automakers have exported far more internal combustion engine vehicles than Chinese automakers. According to McKinsey, 43% of the world's electric vehicle production in 2016 was 870,000 units. Germany and the United States had shares of 23% and 17% respectively. As a winner of Toutiao's Qingyun Plan and Baijiahao's Bai+ Plan, the 2019 Baidu Digital Author of the Year, the Baijiahao's Most Popular Author in the Technology Field, the 2019 Sogou Technology and Culture Author, and the 2021 Baijiahao Quarterly Influential Creator, he has won many awards, including the 2013 Sohu Best Industry Media Person, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Beijing Third Place, the 2015 Guangmang Experience Award, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Finals Third Place, and the 2018 Baidu Dynamic Annual Powerful Celebrity. |
