At 10 a.m. on March 1, the State Information Office held a press conference on the development of industry and informatization. Xiao Yaqing, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, introduced that my country's new energy vehicle production and sales have ranked first in the world for six consecutive years, with more than 5.5 million vehicles promoted.

A reporter asked at the meeting: At present, my country's new energy automobile industry has made considerable progress, but competition is also becoming increasingly fierce. What is the overall development of China's new energy automobile industry? What measures will be taken to further support the development of new energy vehicles?

Xiao Yaqing replied that new energy vehicles are an important direction for the green development, transformation and upgrading of the global automotive industry, and also a strategic choice for the development of my country's automotive industry. In recent years, the Ministry of Industry Information Technology and relevant state departments have jointly issued many support policies, and there are about 60 various support policies and measures. With the joint efforts of various places and departments, especially our various enterprises, my country’s New Energy Automobile Industry Exhibition has achieved positive results. Basic materials, basic parts, motors, electronic controls, batteries, and vehicles have achieved positive results. A substantial breakthrough. The production and sales volume of new energy vehicles has ranked first in the world for six consecutive years, with more than 5.5 million vehicles being promoted.

Xiao Yaqing pointed out that last year (2020) the State Council issued the "New Energy Automobile Industry Development Plan (2021-2035)", which further clarified the development direction and strengthened the confidence of the industry, enterprises and investors in the development. Last year, the global sales of new energy vehicles as a whole declined. We calculate the world’s best. New energy vehicles are thriving. my country’s growth rate is relatively high. It reached 10.9% last year. The rate is relatively high, and the trend is still continuing. Increase and become a new bright spot. However, we must also be soberly aware that the development of new energy vehicles is still in a critical period of climbing over the hurdles. The market competition for new energy vehicles is very fierce. Everyone is optimistic about this industry, but at the same time, new energy vehicles are technically and There are still many problems in terms of quality and consumers' feelings, which need to be further solved by us, and we need to overcome these problems and solve these problems.

Xiao Yaqing said that the next step is to do the following aspects. First, improve quality. On the basis of the early development of new energy vehicles, we must further improve standards and further strengthen quality supervision according to the needs of the market, especially the user experience, and enterprises must continue to improve the manufacturing level so that our new energy vehicles are on the original basis. Improve the quality and improve the quality.

Second, promote integration. Everyone has a concept for "new energy", and everyone has a concept for "automobiles", and new energy vehicles are actually bicycles that incorporate various technologies. The development of new energy vehicles also requires the integration of smart roads, communication networks, cloud technologies, etc., so everyone feels better. It is necessary to further integrate electrification and intelligent networking to develop new functions that better meet the needs of consumers.

Third, optimize the environment. The development of new energy vehicles is inseparable from the layout of charging and swapping infrastructure. We must improve various environmental protection measures such as charging and parking. At the same time, we must also improve the level of electrification of public transportation.

Finally, expand opening up. We have now fully opened up the restrictions on foreign investment in new energy vehicles, and have adopted an open and cooperative attitude in technological innovation, international trade and even the formulation of standards and regulations, which will inject new impetus into the development of new energy vehicles.
