In the previous article, the author talked with you a series of stories about my country's economic development, such as my country's shipping construction, railway construction, and so on. Today, we talk about the amount of car ownership in my country and India. The total population of China and India is basically the same. At present, China's car has the number one in the world. India's car ownership is only about 13%of our country, ranking 11th in the world. So why is the total amount of automobiles in the two countries so large? First of all, we talk about the historical development of cars. As we all know, during the second Science and Technology Revolution, cars appeared. With the widespread use of internal combustion engines, cars were developed in Germany, the United States and other countries. Mercedes -Benz , Ford, Buk , Renault and other series of brands. But in my country, at this time at the end of the rule. Due to the long -term retreat of the country and the accumulation of poverty, as of the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, my country has not been able to produce and design various types of cars by itself.
in the early years of the People's Republic of China, various cars used in my country basically come from various countries, clear imported products. In the middle and early 1950s, with the basically end of the large -scale war, my country entered the stage of post -war reconstruction, restoration of production, development and construction. my country has started the construction of 156 important projects, and my country has gradually possessed a relatively complete industrial system. Subsequently, on the basis of various Soviet vehicles, it was further improved, improved and imitated, and launched its own trucks, jeep and motorcycles.
, for example, the famous liberated truck, Beijing 212 jeep, Yangtze River 750 motorcycle , etc. Please note that at this stage, ordinary people basically have no cars. In the late 1970s, my country's economy entered a period of high -speed development, and people's lives began to gradually become rich. Especially after entering 2010, my country's automotive industry has entered the stage of blowout development, and a series of new brands and models have emerged. Among them, some models have become classic models. As
is getting better and better with people's lives, the demand for buying cars has gradually increased, and the ownership of cars in my country is getting higher and higher. Remember when the author reads, who has a Santana or Gypling , which is a standard rarity. Most families now have private cars. In 2020, my country's car ownership was 280 million, ranking first in the world. Of course, there is a large population in my country. In terms of the number of people per capita, there is still a big gap with developed countries. my country has 19.9 vehicles per 100 people. Compared with the
, compared with it, the number of people in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Japan and other countries is more than 60 vehicles per 100 people. Among them, the number of car ownership in the United States is 270 million, ranking second in the world. Each 100 -person cars have 81.3 vehicles. In other words, one American family is basically two or three cars. In terms of per capita car ownership, there is still a lot of room for development in my country.
Next, we talk about India. India's total population is basically equivalent to my country. Some experts believe that India's actual population has exceeded my country. So, what is the level of cars in India? In 2020, India's car ownership was 36.15 million, only about 12.8%of our country, less than 13%. India's per capita car ownership is lower, and the amount of car owners per 100 people is 2.7 vehicles.
, So why is India's car ownership so low? First, it is naturally income. In 2021, the average monthly salary of India was 3,1900 rupees, which was equivalent to RMB 2,714. Please note that the price of many cars is fixed, and it is also a horizontal price in India. For ordinary Indian families, according to the average salary level of India, ordinary families are very difficult to buy cars. After all, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and family income determines the quality of life.
is second, which is the issue of infrastructure in India. In various states in India, many rural roads are soil or semi -soil roads. Under such road conditions, the wear of the car is very serious. In the rainy season in India, many roads are stagnant water, and potholes are not suitable for cars. Third, India's oil imports are limited.For ordinary Indian families, car refueling and maintenance are also a headache.
is in sharp contrast with cars, and the number of Indian motorcycles is the world's number one. According to calculations, the number of Indian motorcycles is at least 130 million. Basically, each Indian family has one or two motorcycles. For ordinary Indian families, the price and commuting of motorcycles can meet daily needs. India has become one of the main markets of motorcycles in the world, and the annual motorcycle sales are basically more than 20 million vehicles.
Japanese motorcycle industry needle has designed a series of models for the Indian market, and even designed a series of models. Japan's Honda Moto accounts for nearly one -third of India's market share. According to a high -level Honda Group: "Motorcycle manufacturers around the world have shifted to the Indian market. India is the world's largest motorcycle market. Almost 11 people have a motorcycle. 70 %, about 1 billion people will buy motorcycles. It will reach 42.4 billion US dollars, which is a very large "cake." According to some international students, on the streets of Indian cities, three -wheeled or two -wheeled motorcycles are common and belong to the most basic transportation. In contrast, the number of cars and electric vehicles is relatively small.
has a series of stories about Indian economic development. There are many more. In the future articles, the author talks to everyone slowly.
