CCTV News: At the 2025 China Electric Vehicle Hundred People Forum held in Beijing, the relevant person in charge said that my country's new energy vehicle market has reached a new level, with the annual output of new energy vehicles exceeding 10 million for the first time, accounting for 65% of the global total output, ranking first in the world for ten consecutive years. In the next step, my country will promote the high-quality development of new energy vehicles from multiple aspects.

Improve support policies and continue to consolidate and expand industrial competitive advantages

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that the support policies will be improved and the industrial competitive advantages will be continuously consolidated and expanded. Technically, accelerate the research and development of key components such as key materials for power batteries, automotive chips, and high-efficiency hybrid engines. In terms of autonomous driving, we will promote the pilot projects of access to intelligent connected vehicles and road access, improve the standard system, and approve the production access of L3-level autonomous driving models with conditions.

Accelerate the innovation and cultivation of new technologies and new business forms in the charging field

A relevant person in charge of the National Energy Administration said that as of the end of 2024, the total charging infrastructure nationwide reached 12.818 million units, a year-on-year increase of 49.1%; the entire industry showed explosive growth. In the next step, the National Energy Administration will continue to promote the construction of charging facilities to make up for shortcomings, and focus on accelerating the innovative cultivation of new technologies and new business formats in the charging field.

In the future, we will appropriately increase support for purchasing new energy vehicles

The latest data shows that since the beginning of this year, as of March 28, my country's automobile exchange subsidy applications have exceeded 1.769 million, and the total retail sales of new energy vehicle passenger cars nationwide exceeded 2.05 million, an increase of about 34% over the same period last year. A relevant official from the Ministry of Commerce said that in the future, the old-for-new trade will be implemented in depth, and the support for the purchase of new energy vehicles will be appropriately increased to release the potential for existing consumption.

China's new energy vehicle development model is worth learning from around the world

The 2025 China Electric Vehicle Hundred People Association Forum will close on March 30. At this forum, the reporter noticed that in the development blueprint of global new energy vehicles, the overall performance is not balanced. Many guests said that China's new energy vehicle development model is worth learning from around the world.

At this electric vehicle 100-person meeting, a relevant UN person in charge told reporters that in the past four years, the global new energy vehicle market has grown nearly eight times, and in 2024, new energy vehicle sales accounted for 20% of the global total automobile sales, of which more than 60% of new energy vehicle sales came from China. In addition to China, other countries in the Asia-Pacific region are also showing strong electrification trends. Electric vehicle sales in Thailand have increased 10 times in the past four years and South Korea has increased 5 times; unlike China, Thailand and South Korea, sales of new energy vehicles in Europe have declined.

In 2024, sales volume fell by 2.2% year-on-year. In addition, as of the beginning of 2025, the number of new energy vehicles in the United States was still low.

In order to achieve the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement, Caterin, Director of Transportation of the United Nations Economic and Pacific Asia Pacific, said that by 2030, 60% of the global new car sales will need to be new energy vehicles, so that the global average temperature in this century can be controlled to within 2 degrees Celsius compared with the pre-industrial period. Last year, the United Nations also proposed the "Asia-Pacific Electric Mobility Initiative", aiming to exchange knowledge among member countries, coordinate the promotion of transformation, assist countries in formulating national electric travel policies, and accelerate the green and low-carbon transformation of global transportation.
