According to the National Bureau of Statistics, from January to December this year, 26.53 million units of automobiles were produced, with output increasing by 5% year-on-year, the production of new energy vehicles was 3.68 million, an increase of 146%, and the penetration rate of new energy production was 13.9%. This growth rate has undoubtedly led the world's new energy vehicle market. But if there is no purchase restriction policy for fuel vehicles in China, will you still choose to buy pure electric vehicles?
Since China began to limit the purchase of fuel vehicles, the growth momentum of new energy vehicles has been extremely rapid. Since 2018, new car-making forces under the banner of new energy vehicles have sprung up. After 3 years of market verification, those PPT car manufacturers have gradually disappeared in people's vision, just as the so-called rise and fall is also sudden.
However, the production capacity of new energy vehicles has been continuously released in recent years. In 2018, it produced 1.3 million new energy vehicles, an increase of 40% over 2017. From January to December 2020, 1.46 million new energy vehicles were produced, and the growth rate of 17% picked up better. From January to December this year, 26.53 million units of automobiles were produced, with output increasing by 5% year-on-year, and the production of new energy vehicles was 3.68 million, an increase of 146%, and the growth rate of more than 100% made it seem to give people an illusion that people around them were considering buying new energy vehicles.
But this does not seem to be the case. Today, in china's non-restricted areas, it seems that it is difficult to see more than two green cars on the street at the same time. (Except for high-speed free provinces like Hainan Province) New energy vehicles will continue to grow even in 2022, and this situation seems to be difficult to see change in 5 years.
Why not buy it? Is it inconvenient for new energy vehicles?
Judging from all the pure electric vehicles we test drive in 2021, even in the temperature of minus 20 degrees in the northeast, parked outdoors at night, fully charged, and the driving process turns on the warm air. The total cruising range is also more than 200km, which is enough for most people to use for 5 days for an ordinary office worker in Changchun. Not to mention consumers who own private underground parking spaces and garages. Except for a small number of brands, most of the independent brand new energy vehicles are free of charge charging pile equipment in the sales process. Even a brand like Tesla, installing a charging device in a parking space, it only costs 8,000 yuan. Compared with the purchase tax saved by the purchase of new energy vehicles, the daily use of the saved fuel money is negligible.
In the field of charging, even in the northeast region, the construction of charging stations is not backward, and there are public charging facilities in many large shopping malls, airports, and railway stations. Therefore, in the daily use scenario, we do not have to worry about the battery life of electric vehicles.
As for long-distance travel, we must admit that the current construction of charging facilities in the domestic highway service area is not perfect enough. But, let's ask ourselves, how many times throughout the year do we drive more than 200km? The car rental industry and car sharing are developed today, and it is entirely possible to solve it through these avenues.
So in the final analysis, for non-restricted areas, it is still the consumer's inner habit of using new energy vehicles that has not been formed.
Why not buy it? Is the new energy vehicle product force not enough?
Many new energy vehicle companies like to take their own products 0-100km/h acceleration data to talk about things, and even take out Lamborghini calves as opponents in test drives to accelerate, which in my opinion is meaningless. People's love for fuel vehicles is not because of how fast fuel vehicles are. Automobile development has been more than 100 years, and people have long passed the era of obsessively running "zero four". Even the most common manual transmission jetta of a generation, every shift in gear during the driving process, every time he stepped on the clutch can bring the driver the pleasure of "human-vehicle integration", not simply 4 seconds to break the hundred, bringing endless emptiness after a short period of entertainment. Driving pleasure is as much a metaphysical thing as the texture of the chassis, but we can't deny that it does exist. Perhaps because of this, subaru BRZ, Toyota 86, Honda Type-R, these main manual models are still not extinct.
As for Li Bin's previous sentence: "I don't understand why there are still people buying oil trucks now, in addition to smelling gasoline, I really can't think of anything good." Even more wrong, aside from the fact that he is the representative factor of electric vehicle manufacturers, he will never know that the roar of the engine combined with the combustion of gasoline produces carbon monoxide and benzene to bring double stimulation to people's sense of smell and hearing, secreting a large amount of dopamine, resulting in a pleasant feeling. The new energy vehicle is more like an electric toy in the city.
Zi Buyao: Whether it is a fuel car or an electric car, it is difficult for you to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of people in different circles, but there is a fact that before 2025, we can still easily buy the vast majority of brands of fuel vehicles, as to whether the sale of traditional fuel vehicles will be completely banned after that? We can't tell. If it does come to fruition, it will be an important moment in the century-old history of automobiles. I don't know if it is lucky or unfortunate, but our generation will have the opportunity to witness this historical moment.
