Will China miss the opportunity of electric vehicles development?
Recently, SAIC chairman Hu Maoyuan, BYD chairman Wang Chuanfu, Renault - Nissan vehicles, including the joint CE0 Ghosn altar big brother cries of hope that the Chinese government to increase support for efforts.
The slow development of electric vehicles in China
Including pure electric cars is electric, hybrid, fuel cell and other forms of new energy vehicles, electric vehicles due to high production costs, inadequate facilities, almost all domestic and regions provide subsidies for electric cars, and policy support. The United States as the world's largest seller of electric vehicles, but also into the most active countries, this year, August 5, U.S. President Barack Obama announced a total of up to 24 million incentive grant program to accelerate the local electric car industry, the United States production and R & D rate; Japan leading the field of electric vehicles, IBM ThinkPad R40 battery, IBM ThinkPad X60 batteryand plans by 2010 fuel cell 110,000 vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles 2.11 million; even pay attention to diesel cars in Europe has also begun to develop electric cars.
In contrast, although the Chinese government promulgated the "automobile industry restructuring and revitalization plan," and proposed the next three years, China should establish a 500 thousand of pure electric, plug-in hybrid and common type of hybrid and other new energy sources Qichechanneng, new energy car sales passenger cars accounted for about 5% of total sales, and electric cars developed 50000 ~ 60 million subsidy standards, in addition to during the Olympics, some electric vehicles in operation, the so far almost no consumer-oriented of the electric car sales in the market, even the most well-known F3DM BYD dual-mode electric vehicle is no exception, this year delivered 32 cars full of industry users, no one is a private user, this is the domestic electric vehicle development status quo.
National Development and Reform Commission officials in charge of the automotive industry, said some government officials for sales of subsidized electric cars reservations about the practice, as entitled to such subsidies or discounts may be mainly those for wealthy private customers.
Wang Chuanfu: universal electric vehicles depend on policies
Seeing the slow pace of electric cars forward, opened the gap with foreign and domestic vehicle factories began to sit still, SAIC, FAW, Dongfeng, Chang'an, Guangzhou Automobile, Beijing Automotive, Heavy Truck, Brilliance, Chery, JAC this 10 Domestic car prices have jointly established in August the "electric http://www.mainec.com/ vehicle industry alliance" with the intention of jointly overcome energy-saving and new energy vehicles in the industrialization of the various difficulties encountered in the process, OEMs have recently come out of the head of the loud calls The Government should increase policy support.
SAIC chairman Hu Maoyuan held in November, "2009 Clean Energy Summit" on the public that electric vehicles currently produced almost no return, because includes two aspects, first, the battery technology and performance compared to conventional cars there are gaps, which research to address the need for technical upgrading; second is the cost of lithium batteries as opposed to a traditional car is still much higher for the promotion of electric vehicles, there is a problem: It is a time when such reproduction of low-cost battery-electric vehicles, or other low-cost mass production after the lower and lower. He said, "This is a first, the chicken or the egg problem. But to solve this problem, it should be in the public expenditure areas, such as public transport vehicles, official vehicles, and so the first use of electric vehicles."
Renault - Nissan CEO Ghosn hinted http://www.easybattery.net/that the double, the Chinese Government does not encourage the private purchase of green cars, Nissan measure is caused by production of electric cars in China holding an evasive attitude of the reasons for
