In 2021, the sales volume of the domestic motorcycle market reached 20 million, becoming the third largest travel consumer product after electric vehicles and cars.

In terms of the travel of 1.4 billion users in China, the largest sales are battery cars, with an average annual sales volume of 40 million in the domestic market, followed by the passenger car market with a 21 million magnitude sales performance, and the 20 million motorcycle sales performance is also not inferior.

Unlike electric cars and cars, China developed the motorcycle market earlier. As early as the 1990s, motorcycles had already become the "standard configuration" of big cities. In that era when the development of the automobile industry and electrification industries were not obvious enough, motorcycles with simple manufacturing technology, relatively low prices, low maintenance costs, high reliability and strong convenience were already the trademark product for people to "expose their wealth".

But soon, with the implementation of many joint ventures around 2004, cars entered the track of life.

Consumers who have not enjoyed the "warm winter, cool summer, shelter from wind and rain" car life have begun to advance their efforts from motorcycles to cars. Cars with tens of thousands of parts can drive thousands of industrial chains . Using the automobile industry to develop the local economy has become an important way to strengthen local development.

Guangzhou, Chongqing, Chengdu, Wuhan, Changchun and other places began to develop the automobile industry, and after 2004, it began to develop the automobile industry economic development .

Motorcycles actually have some room for development after the city is built, but they have been banned by some big cities, such as a large number of mainstream provincial capital cities, Zhengzhou, Wuhan, Guangzhou, and the leading cities of Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen have all begun to ban motorcycles.

reason is diversity .

On the one hand, motorcycles are not conducive to management, small size and fast speed, which brings safety hazards to the city. On the other hand, after the city is built, there will be a rich public transportation network, including subways, buses, private cars, electric cars and taxis, and motorcycle filling is not very meaningful.

The most important thing is that the influx of a large number of motorcycles into the city brings greater burden to the road management order that is already under great pressure. It is difficult to manage illegal situations when the trial is released, and banning motorcycles has become an inevitable result.

But the ban on motorcycles in big cities is just an isolated case.

Among the more than 650 cities across the country, there are about 60 cities that have completely banned motorcycles in the sense of the real sense, which means that 90% of cities still allow motorcycles to drive.

This is just a city, and there is no restriction on motorcycles in rural areas. The low price and high convenience of motorcycles are highly compatible with the lives of working-class and farmers. Therefore, when the city has obvious ban on motorcycles, motorcycles can still achieve sales of 20 million. The core of

is that about 60 banned cities cover the population of people not as many as imagined. Except for a few cities with a population of tens of millions, most cities have a population of millions.

The management of motorcycles is actually relaxing. For example, the new annual inspection system implemented in October has been changed to a motorcycle annual inspection twice within 10 years, and once in the 6th and 10th years.

In fact, the ban on motorcycles is only aimed at some medium and large cities, such as Zhengzhou, a city with a population of tens of millions. Indeed, urban public transportation is very complete and road management pressure is huge. Motorcycles are not a necessity for urban residents, so they are controlled.

But in fact, many areas are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, low-key and correct in attitude, and their tolerance towards motorcycles is also relaxed in an orderly manner, but the premise is that no major motorcycle racing or traffic accidents can occur.

For example, Chongqing, which has always been very tolerant, is forced to ban motorcycles on some sections of the road in the face of low-quality street bombing.
