Subsidies for new energy vehicles will decline by 30% in 2022

Car companies have announced price increases

In a car 4S store in Shenzhen, the reporter met Mr. Qin who came to buy new energy vehicles, and he told reporters that after the subsidy for new energy vehicles declines, although the cost of car purchase will increase to a certain extent, he pays more attention to the convenience of applying for licenses for new energy vehicles and the low travel costs, so the subsidy decline will not affect his purchase of new energy vehicles.

Huang Limei, general manager of Shenzhen Junyuan Automobile Sales service Co., Ltd., said that in fact, everyone's sensitivity to the price (change) of new energy vehicles due to the decline of the national subsidy is not so strong. The main reason is that in a city like Shenzhen, where licenses are restricted, new energy vehicles can get licenses on a basic basis.

Industry insiders said that compared with the impact of subsidies on enterprises, the main cost pressure of car companies comes from the price increase of raw materials, according to statistics, the price of battery-grade lithium carbonate in 2021 will increase by more than 400%.

Cui Dongshu, Secretary General of the Passenger Car Market Information Joint Association: Overall, in the second and third quarters of last year, the increase in production capacity and the increase in consumer recognition will certainly lead to explosive growth, and sales can sprint to more than 5.5 million units in 2022.
