The Rapid Development of China’s NEV Market and its Policy/Regulations Driving Forces

Dr. Qingyuan Song | Chief Engineer of Policy & Regulatory Affairs, Geely Powertrain

The production and sale of new energy vehicles(NEVs)in China have skyrocketed in recent years, accounting for more than half of the global figure. Purchase subsidies, tax incentives and the stringent NEV-CAFE dual credit policy are strong factors in stimulating electric vehicle (EV) growth in China. With the expiry of direct state subsidies and the phase out of tax incentives, will the strong growth in the EV market continue? Will the innovations and electrification of powertrain technologies keep pace with China’s commitment to the 2060 carbon neutrality plan
