How China did electric vehicles

“I drive an electric vehicle because I am poor,” says Lu Yunfeng, on the outside of Guangzhou in a resort to the outside of Guangzhou in southern China.

Standing around, Sun Jingguo agrees. “The cost of driving a petrol car is too expensive. I save money by driving the electric vehicle,” he noted.

“It also protects the environment,” he added, bending against the white bijing U7 model.

It is the type of climate campaigns dialogue. In many countries, electric vehicles (EVS) are luxury shopping.

But here in China – almost half of all the cars sold last year was a ban on reality.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Chinese leadership established plans to dominate future technologies. Bicycle nation China is currently the world leader in EVS.

Guangzhou has more than 18 million people, a hurry time has become humans.

“In terms of EVS, China 10 years earlier and is 10 times better than any other country,” said analysts of the self-sector Michael Dunne.

The Chinese byd today launches the global world, after this year’s Opeta passes.

BYD’s sales contributed to a wide internal market of more than 1,4 billion people and seeks to sell more cars abroad. So other cheap Chinese starting points in the market market are other Chinese.

So how did China build this lead, and can it be caught?

In the origin of China’s EV dominance, analysts often Credit Wan Gang – 2007 German trade and science ministers became German engineer.

“He looked around and” Good news: Now we are the largest car market in the world. Bad eyes: Shanghai, all I see on the streets of Guangzhou is a foreign mark, “says Mr. Dunne.

At the time, Chinese Marks could not compete with European cars, American and Japanese for quality and prestige. These companies started the impossible head when producing gasoline or diesel cars.

But China had extensive resources, skillful work force and engine industry suppliers in the supplier ecosystem. So Wan Mr. decided to change the game “and the screening of the script goes to electrical,” according to Mr. Dunne.

This was the main plan.

Although the Chinese government has introduced EVS in the 2001 economic model of 2001, it was not until the 2010 decade, it began to offer a wide range of grants for industry.

China, unlike Western Democracy has the ability to mobilize large curiosities of its economy for many years.

The testament to the country’s ghost infrastructure and the dominance of manufacturing is the will.

The US Tank, Strategic Research and International Center (CSIS), from 2009 to 2023, spent about $ 231 million (£ 172 million) developed EV industry.

Consumers and carers have electricity suppliers and battery suppliers, all in China have the right money and support to EVS.

For example, the Byd Phone battery encouraged to encourage focus on the EVS producer.

Companies based on Ningde-based Catl, Volkswagen and Ford – was created in 2011 and is now created by a third of the batteries used for EVS around the world.

This combination of long-term planning and government funding allowed China to master the critical supply chains in the production of battery production.

He has helped build the largest public-loading network in the world at concentrated stations in large cities, drivers from the nearby charger.

“If you want to join an electric car today, all roads pass through China,” says Mr. Dunne.

Some refer to as “state capitalism”. Western countries call them unfair business practice.

The Chinese EV executives emphasize that all companies, domestic or foreigners have access to the same resources.

As a result, they argue, China has a successful initial sector, driven by cultural competition and innovation culture.

“The Chinese government is doing the same thing you see in Europe and the US.

“But I think China has done it consistently and as it is in a way that promotes the most competitive landscape. There is no one’s preference,” he added.

Xpeng is “one of China Champions”, as the Lord puts us, carrying forward the industry. Hardly the old decade and yet to turn on, launching is already among the 10 EVEN producers of the world.

The company has attracted some of the most important young graduates in China to Guangzhou’s headquarters, where indented workers live in the storefront of whites and Internet portfolios.

A lively colored slide seemed to be moving from the upper ground to the ground, than the Chinese industrial area in Silicon Valley.

Despite the relaxed atmosphere, the Lord says that the pressure to offer better prices for consumers is “horrible”.

The BBC Xpeng’s Mona Max test was invited to a disc for sale in China about $ 20,000.

For this price you get self-driving capacity, voice activation, flat beds, cinema and music streaming. China’s young graduates, we tell us, see all of them as a standard feature for the first car purchase.

“New creator … Look at the car as another animal,” says David Li, Hesai creator and CEO, which uses the LIDAR sensation technology that uses car driving cars.

China’s young consumers are certainly attracted to the top-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-The-Government Evs Ecs to do economically attractive.

Public members receive subsidies for negotiating in their electric electrical car, as well as tax exemptions and charging subsidized fees in public stations.

These advantages led Mr. Lu two years ago. He paid 200 yuan ($ 27.84; £ 20.72) to drive his car 400 km (248 miles). It costs a quarter of that.

People in China usually pay thousands of vehicles for the registration plate – sometimes more than the cost of the car – government efforts are made to limit congestion and pollution. Lu Lord gets green for free.

“Because the rich diesel cars have unlimited resources,” says Lu Lu. “EV makes sense for me.”

He owns another owner of Shanghai, who wanted to use Daisy.

Underlying three minutes, the machines have fully charged its flat battery. The price of the art technology is less than the price of a fuel tank.

Government grants in the heart of China’s heart are unfair countries that seek to protect their car industries.

The US, Canada and the European Union have imposed imports on imports in China.

However, the UK says that there is no plan to follow a suit. It has become an attractive market for companies like XpDG. In March British consumers and byd on the UK’s Surf Model in the UK, and is available for $ 26,100.

They should be music to the ears of the Western Government, who call the United Nations “pivotal” to prevent climate disaster.

Several western countries, including the United Kingdom, said 2030. Until the year they will prohibit sales of gasoline and diesel cars.

“Chinese are thinking about the future of each world’s car. They’re talking around:” Can someone do better than us? “Mr. Dunne says.

“Detroit, Germany, UK leaders, around the world are shaking heads everywhere. It is a new era, and the Chinese feel very sure in the face of their futures.”

Despite the environmental benefits, there is still a suspicion that could cause Chinese technology.

MI6’s Britain head, Sir Richard Dearlove, recently “can be controlled from Beijing” Computer Computer Ev.

His claim that China EVS could be immobilized British cities one day in an interview with Stella Li Li Vice-President.

“Anyone can claim if they lose anything. But, what?” He said.

“Byd pays a very high standard data security standard. We use local carriers for all our data. We do 10 times better than our competition.”

However, Sir Richard’s worries resonated national security discussions about Chinese technology.

Huawei includes the manufacturer of telecommunications infrastructure, which was forbidden in several western countries, as well as prohibited in government devices in the UK.

But on Sun Jingguo in Guangzhou, the message is simple.

“The world should thank China for bringing this technology into the world,” he laughs. “I”.

He has announced the International Corresponding Business in London.
