1 China has been developing the automotive industry for decades. With many lessons, it has paid a lot of tuition and has accumulated a lot of successful experiences.
2 The threshold of high-end technology for fuel vehicles is already high, and many technologies have been firmly controlled by advanced countries. China has been tracking, but it cannot surpass it.
3 The technical threshold of pure electric vehicles is similar to everyone, and there are no first-mover advantages for countries with developed fuel vehicles compared to China. However, China's power battery industrialization has certain comparative advantages. For example, China's power battery industry chain is relatively complete, and now Europe does not have a factory that produces power batteries in batches.
4 On the technical roadmap of a homogenized power vehicle, overall, fuel technology dominates and electric technology is auxiliary. The Chinese government has completely abandoned the hybrid technology route and implemented the plug-in (or incremental) technology route, which is in line with the pure electric drive technology route.
5 The electric car is the basic trend. It shows that the fuel vehicle technology can no longer meet the requirements of modern (future) social development. Although fuel trucks are still the main vehicles, especially cargo trucks, for quite a long time, their orderly substitution is an objective trend.
6 China's development of new energy vehicles is a strategic choice and positioning at the national level. It is not an expedient measure and it naturally requires a high degree of success.
In a word, China's technological route for the development of new energy vehicles must be different from other countries. To surpass it, we must have a concrete embodiment in the development of the technical route.
