China will set a deadline for automakers to end sales of fossil-fuel powered vehicles, a move aimed at pushing companies to speed efforts in developing electric vehicles for the world’s biggest auto market.
Xin Guobin, the vice minister of industry and information technology, said the government is working with other regulators on a timetable to end production and sales. The move will have a profound impact on the environment and growth of China’s auto industry, Mr Xin said at an auto forum in Tianjin on Sept 9th.
A ban on combustion-engine vehicles will help push both local and global automakers to shift toward electric vehicles, a carrot-and-stick approach that could boost sales of energy-efficient cars and trucks and reduce air pollution while serving the strategic goal of cutting oil imports. The government offers generous subsidies to makers of new-energy vehicles. It also plans to require automakers to earn enough credits or buy them from competitors with a surplus under a new cap-and-trade program for fuel economy and emissions.
Honda Motor Co. will launch an electric car for the China market in 2018, China Chief Operating Officer Yasuhide Mizuno said at the same forum. The Japanese carmaker is developing the vehicle with Chinese joint ventures of Guangqi Honda Automobile Co and Dongfeng Honda Automobile Co. and will create a new brand with them, he said.
Internet entrepreneur William Li’s Nio will start selling ES8, a sport-utility vehicle powered only with batteries, in mid-December. The startup is working with state-owned Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group, which also is in a venture with Volkswagen AG to introduce an electric SUV next year.
China, seeking to meet its promise to cap its carbon emissions by 2030, is the latest country to unveil plans to phase out vehicles running on fossil fuels. The UK said in July it will ban sales of diesel and gasoline-fueled cars by 2040, two weeks after France announced a similar plan to reduce air pollution and meet targets to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit).
燃油车将“消失”？中国将制定禁售燃油汽车时间表
就在9月9日开幕的2017中国汽车产业发展（泰达）国际论坛上，工信部副部长辛国斌就做了重要表示：工信部已经启动了燃油车退出时间表的研究。而当这个时间表一旦定下来，那就意味着燃油车要准备挥挥衣袖，与我们告别了。
辛国斌表示，当前，许多国家纷纷调整发展战略，在新能源、智能网联产业加快产业布局，抢占新一轮制高点，一些国家已经制订了停止生产销售传统能源汽车的时间表。“目前工信部也启动了相关研究，也将会同相关部门制订我国的时间表，这些举措必将推动我国汽车产业发展的环境和动力发生深刻变化。”他说。
汽车产销量连续八年世界第一
2016年产销量突破2800万辆，已连续八年位居世界第一位。汽车市场在国民经济支柱中的作用不断增强，汽车税收占全国税收比重，从业人员数占全国就业人员数比重，汽车销售额占全国商品零售总额的比重均超过10％。
新能源汽车推广占全球50％
新能源汽车领域，我国已成为最大的生产和销售市场。2016年，我国新能源汽车产销突破50万辆，累计推广超过100万辆，占全球50％。
新能源汽车扶持力度不断档
财政部经济建设司副司长宋秋玲９日表示，新能源汽车长期执行消费补贴，容易使企业盲目扩张，形成产能过剩。目前补贴的退坡政策已经明确，今后将配合有关部门加快新能源汽车积分政策，确保财政补贴政策退坡后对新能源汽车扶持力度不断档。
汽车产业迎来剧烈变革
现在到2025年将是汽车产业变革最为剧烈的几年。传统汽车节能减排要求越来越高，新能源汽车发展加快却对技术要求越来越高，智能网联汽车将对整个产业带来巨大影响。
你会买新能源汽车吗？
环保、节能、省钱是新能源汽车的优势，未来道路上的新能源汽车将随处可见，但就目前来说，新能源汽车依然有它的短板。充电难，充电时间慢，续航短，售后不完善等问题的存在使不少人不愿购买新能源汽车。
我的燃油车还能开多久？
英国、法国等国家推出了自己的禁售传统燃油车日期，有的甚至2025年就禁售传统燃油车！燃油汽车如此迅速地将被清除出汽车行列，让人惊呼——难道现在买的车过十年都不能开了？
燃油车还能开多久不好说，但能够预见的是：一个被燃油车统治了100多年的时代行将结束，一个新能源汽车的时代行将到来！
