On March 5th, Premier Li Keqiang proposed in the government work report to stably increase the bulk consumption of automobiles and home appliances, remove unreasonable restrictions on second-hand car transactions, increase parking lots, charging piles, power stations and other facilities, and speed up the construction of power battery recycling. Use the system.

    Li Keqiang proposed to adhere to the strategic basis of expanding domestic demand and fully tap the potential of the domestic market. Focus on improving people's livelihood to expand demand, promote the effective combination of consumption and investment, and achieve a higher level of dynamic balance between supply and demand.

    Stabilize and expand consumption. Increase residents' income through multiple channels. Improve the urban and rural distribution system, speed up e-commerce and express delivery into rural areas, and expand county and township consumption. Steady increase in bulk consumption such as automobiles and home appliances, remove unreasonable restrictions on second-hand car transactions, increase parking lots, charging piles, power stations and other facilities, and accelerate the construction of a power battery recycling system. Develop the consumption of health, culture, tourism, sports and other services. Encourage enterprises to innovate products and services, facilitate market access for new products, and promote the same quality of domestic and foreign products on the same line and standard. Ensure the orderly operation of convenient service industries such as small shops and shops. Make good use of "Internet +", promote wider and deeper integration of online and offline, develop new business formats and new models, and provide consumers with more convenient and comfortable services and products. Guide platform companies to reasonably reduce merchant service fees. Steadily increase consumption capacity and improve the consumption environment, so that residents can consume and willingly consume, so as to promote the improvement of people's livelihood and economic development.

   According to data from the my country Passenger Car Association, the cumulative retail volume of passenger cars in China in 2020 was 19.288 million, a year-on-year decrease of 6.8%. The main reason for the year-on-year decline was the decline in sales in the first half of the year due to the epidemic. Far surpassing the rapid growth trend during the same period, the overall growth rate remained at around 8% from July to December, but it still failed to achieve positive growth throughout the year.

    However, it is worth noting that the sales of new energy vehicles in 2020 have successfully outperformed the market, becoming a market segment that rarely achieves contrarian growth. In 2020, the cumulative retail sales of new energy passenger vehicles in China will be 1.109 million, a year-on-year increase That’s 9.8%.

    In terms of supporting infrastructure for new energy vehicles, in recent years, in addition to relying on fast charging piles to achieve energy supplements, power exchange has also gradually emerged, becoming a key technological path for car companies and relevant departments to focus and guide. At present, many brands, including Geely, BAIC New Energy, and Weilai, have achieved large-scale power exchange models. In September last year, Geely Automobile officially laid out the field of battery swaps and announced that it signed a contract for 1,000 swap stations nationwide; the new car brand NIO previously planned to build and deploy 500 swap stations in 2021.
