Under the dual pressure of climate warming and environmental pollution, countries around the world have introduced different levels of emission restrictions for car companies. If automakers fail to meet the emission reduction targets as scheduled, they will be severely punished economically and administratively. At the same time, many countries and regions are gradually introducing their own timetable for the ban on fuel vehicles.
In September 2017, at the China Automotive Industry Development International Forum, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that my country has started to study the timetable for the withdrawal of traditional fuel vehicles.
In 2018, Hainan, the first city in my country to launch a “burn ban” plan, also appeared. Hainan plans to start the timetable for the entry of fuel vehicles into the island in a timely manner around 2025. From 2030, the province will completely ban the sale of fuel vehicles, becoming the first province in China to ban the sale of fuel vehicles. Z1z
National New Energy Vehicle Innovation Project Expert Team Leader Wang Binggang once said that in the next 15 years, my country’s energy-saving vehicles and new energy vehicles will develop at the same time. Cars are equally divided.
Last month, on November 2, 2020, the General Office of the State Council officially released the "New Energy Automobile Industry Development Plan (2021-2035)". The "Planning" proposes that starting from 2021, the proportion of new energy vehicles in public areas in the national ecological civilization pilot zone and air pollution prevention and control key areas will be no less than 80%. By 2025, the average power consumption of new pure electric passenger vehicles will drop to 12.0 kWh/100 kilometers, and the sales of new energy vehicles will reach about 20% of the total sales of new vehicles. By 2035, pure electric vehicles will become the mainstream of new sales vehicles, public vehicles will be fully electrified, fuel cell vehicles will achieve commercial applications, and highly autonomous vehicles will achieve large-scale applications, effectively promoting energy conservation, emission reduction, and social operational efficiency. Promote.
Prior to this, many countries have formulated plans to ban the sale of fuel vehicles. The Netherlands and Norway require that the sale of traditional gasoline and diesel vehicles be banned from 2025; Germany passed a proposal to ban the sale of traditional internal combustion engines after 2030; India plans to ban the sale of fuel vehicles in 2030; France and the United Kingdom have locked the time node at 2040 Years; The government decree issued by the State of California, the United States, stipulates that the sale of fuel-fired buses is prohibited after 2030.
Since many countries and regions are gradually introducing their own timetable for the ban on fuel vehicles, it has set a final time limit for the transformation of traditional car companies. That is to say, the general trend of automobile electrification is irreversible. Instead of passively waiting for the ban, it is better to actively stop the sale. Perhaps you can seize the opportunity to grab a new ticket for yourself. As a result, traditional car companies began to release their own fuel vehicle suspension plans.
(1) Honda will stop selling fuel vehicles in Europe in 2022, and only sell hybrid/pure electric
. On the afternoon of December 4, Honda’s senior vice president Ian Howells said: Honda plans to stop selling traditional fuel vehicles in Europe in 2022 , And the future sales models will be mainly hybrid and pure electric. Since Honda’s average emission level in 2020 is already too high, Honda must sell models that meet EU emission standards. The announcement of the suspension of the sale of fuel vehicles is not only related to European emission regulations, or also related to Japan’s plan to ban the sale of traditional fuel vehicles by mid-2030, and sales of new vehicles will be converted to hybrid and pure electric vehicles. Policy related.
(2) Bentley will stop selling petrol vehicles in 2026, and millions of luxury cars will also be electrified.
Bentley, a luxury brand under the German Volkswagen Group, has recently announced its latest electrification strategy: Bentley will provide every model series by 2023 Zhongdu will provide a hybrid version; by 2025, Bentley will launch its first pure electric vehicle; by 2026, Bentley’s lineup will only include plug-in hybrid and pure electric vehicles; and by 2030, Bentley will fully Realize electrification.
(3) After the new infrastructure construction, the electrification of domestic vehicles will be fully opened.
In March 2020, my country will include new energy electric vehicle charging piles into the “new infrastructure” category.The process of mobilization has kept up. BAIC plans to suspend the sale of fuel vehicles in Beijing this year and nationwide in 2025; Changan Automobile also plans to stop selling traditional fuel vehicles by 2025; Geely launches the "Blue Geely Action", and by 2020, 90% of Geely's vehicles are new energy vehicles; Haima Automobile also stated that it will completely phase out fuel vehicles after 2025.
However, if new energy electric vehicles want to completely overturn the gasoline vehicle empire that has existed for more than 100 years, it is bound to be difficult, and various policy decisions must be made cautiously. Z1z
Daimler AG Chairman of the Board of Directors Zetsche said that a comprehensive ban on the sale of traditional fuel vehicles is improper, and consumers should decide which product to choose.
Fu Yuwu, Honorary Chairman of the Chinese Society of Automotive Engineers, believes that the Chinese government must be indignant and cautious when it comes to prohibiting the sale of fuel vehicles. It must follow scientific and market laws and not blindly follow up. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said: “Everyone hopes that new energy can replace fuel vehicles as soon as possible, but in the absence of revolutionary breakthroughs in pure electric vehicle technology, a total ban on fuel vehicles seems unlikely.”
The growth rate of the energy vehicle market has increased exponentially, and the market is heating up rapidly, but the sales of new energy vehicles are far from comparable to that of traditional energy vehicles. At present, all-electric vehicles only account for less than 10% of total sales. There is a big difference between the two. This situation is short-term It is difficult to change within.
expects that in the next 20 to 30 years, the global automotive market will be centered on electrification technology, and the advantages of motor drive and internal combustion engine will complement each other, and internal combustion engine will exist as a vehicle power for quite some time. Automobile-related manufacturers in various countries must plan ahead. They need to prepare for energy, infrastructure, electrification, informatization, industrial chain transformation, employee transfer, government supervision and laws and regulations. It requires a long-term process and cannot be accomplished overnight.
