Abstract: - With the continuous development of science and technology, cars have become an indispensable
means of transportation for human beings in daily travel. More and more cars appear in our life. In recent years,
as consumer awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection has increased, global demand for
sustainable development has increased, and many new energy vehicles. Because the non-renewable resources
such as oil and natural gas needed by traditional fuel cars are consumed faster and faster, the exhaust emissions
of traditional cars are polluting the environment increases, so new energy vehicles are the future development
trend of the automobile industry. With the international context of the rapid development of new energy trams,
the sales volume of electric vehicles in China's automobile market is not good. Through data analysis and industry
research, the key factors and reasons affecting the development of electric vehicles are found, make certain
suggestions to Chinese new energy electric vehicle companies, in order to change the current situation of low
sales of new energy vehicles, the report objectively and truly analyses the future planning of the development of
Chinese electric vehicle enterprises and the change of the development trend, as well as the moderate fine-tuning
of the sales pricing.

1 Introduction
With the development of economic globalization,
residents' demand for cars is increasing year by year,
and they have higher requirements for quality of life.
More and more cars are produced, sold, and used [1].
While providing people with convenient and efficient
services, the exhaust emissions of fuel cars and the
consumption of non-renewable resources and fuels
bring a lot of trouble and harm to human life.
Automobile exhaust contains hundreds of different
compounds. The main pollutants emitted by
automobiles are carbon monoxide (CO),
hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon
dioxide (CO2), and particulate matter (PM).
Automobile pollution has become a global public
hazard, and its contribution to the increase of
greenhouse gas concentration cannot be ignored [2].
The internal combustion engine of a car is a small
chemical plant, consuming a lot of oil resources. The
combustion of gasoline generates a driving force, but
also produces a lot of complex chemical reactions,
emitting many greenhouse gases, aggravating the
greenhouse effect, bringing great challenges to the
ecological balance, but also to the optimization and
improvement of the global environment has caused
huge pressure [3].
In the 1960 s, the oil crisis makes people pay
attention to pure electric cars again this time it
actually entered the industrialization stage of the
continent, in the middle of the oil crisis has
frequently, this period became the human cannot
ignore a problem, people have realized this problem,
and began to reflect on the increasingly serious
environment will bring mankind huge disaster, The
electric motor is small, does not pollute the
environment, does not emit exhaust gas, the noise is
very small so that people re-examine the pure electric
vehicle. Driven by capital, in those ten years, the
driving technology of electric vehicles has made
great development, pure electric vehicles have
attracted more and more attention, and small electric
vehicles began to occupy a fixed market, such as golf
course mobility scooters [4].
The biggest problem that hindered the
development of electric vehicles in the 1990s was the
lagging development of battery technology and the
market pressure of traditional car manufacturers to
develop hybrid cars to overcome the problem of short
battery and range. This time frame is best represented
by Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and hybrid electric
vehicles. the plug-in hybrid is a kind of new energy
vehicle between pure electric vehicles and fuel
vehicles, which has the engine, transmission,

transmission system, oil circuit, and fuel tank of
traditional cars. There are also pure electric vehicle
batteries, motor, and control circuit, and the battery
capacity is relatively large, and there is a charging
interface; It combines the advantages of pure electric
vehicle EV and hybrid electric vehicle HEV, which
can not only achieve pure electric and zero-emission
driving but also increase the driving range of the
vehicle through hybrid mode. -----hybrids electric
vehicle is a compromise between conventional
vehicles and fully electric vehicles: It simultaneously
uses the internal combustion engine of traditional
vehicles which can be designed smaller and the motor
of fully electric vehicles for hybrid driving including
battery and inverter links, reducing the demand for
fossil fuels and improving fuel economy, thus
achieving energy saving, emission reduction, and
greenhouse effect mitigation.
2. Research Background
At the beginning of the 21st century, with the
continuous development of science and technology,
the range of electric vehicles keeps increasing, which
can meet the needs of some residents in daily life.
Therefore, many electric vehicles pour into the car
market and get a part of the market share.
2.1 China Automobile Market
The People's Republic of China has a land area of 9.6
million square kilometres, which is the third largest
country in the world. The People's Republic of China
is the world's most populous country, according to
the latest statistics, about 1.42 billion people in the
China statistics bureau [5], at the same time, the
People's Republic of China is the world's second-
largest economy, gross domestic product in 2021
totalled $17.7 trillion, according to the international
exchange rates came second in the world, second
only to the United States, In purchasing-power-parity
terms, it ranks first in the world. China is the main
sales target market for major auto production
companies due to its vast land and large population,
good economic development, and sufficient
purchasing power of local people [6].
China's domestic car market has also continued to
grow rapidly since the country joined the World
Trade Organization in 2001. In 2009, for the first
time, China surpassed the United States to become
the world's largest auto producer and seller. The rapid
growth of China's automobile market benefits from
the market-oriented and liberalized economic
reforms and the increasing degree of opening to the
outside world. Although liberalization still has a long
way to go, it has attracted large amounts of foreign
investment and boosted imports of cars and auto
parts. At the same time, rising income levels,
continued urbanization, and the implementation of
China's economic rebalancing policy aimed at
increasing household consumption have all boosted
the demand for automobiles. Despite the large
volume of car sales in China, the car ownership per
1000 people in China was only 204/1000 in 2021. In
2019, according to World Bank statistics, the number
of cars per thousand people in China was only 173.
Figure 1. No of Vehicles per x1000 in 2019
2.2 China's Economic Development
China's economy, which has grown rapidly since the
country's reform and opening in the 1980s, has shown
a trend of contraction in recent years despite the
global economic downturn. China's economy has
maintained steady and sustained growth. In 2021,
China's gross domestic product reached 114 trillion
CNY, an increase of 8.1 percent compared with
China's gross domestic product in 2020 [7]. China's
disposable income is 35,100 CNY, up 9 percent from
2020. Chinese residents for transport and
communications consumer spending as much as 3156
RMB per person, compared with 2020 increased by
14.3%, so the Chinese residents for transportation
spending good trends, demand increased year by
year, and the economic situation is not good in the
world at present, the Chinese people have strong
consumption ability to buy cars, China's auto market
is a market with strong potential [8].
2.3 International situation
At present, the global energy and environmental
systems are facing great challenges, and the
automobile, as a major consumer of oil and carbon
dioxide emissions, needs to undergo revolutionary
changes [9]. The global development of new energy
vehicles has formed a consensus. In the long term,
pure electric drive, including pure electric and fuel
cell technology, will be the main technological
direction of new energy vehicles. In the short term,
gas-electric hybrid and plug-in hybrid will be an
important transition route. At present, the
development of global new energy vehicles is still

facing some common problems, such as
breakthroughs in key technologies, the
transformation of the automobile industry,
infrastructure construction, and consumer acceptance
[10]. For example, the United States has long focused
on the strategy of reducing oil dependence and
ensuring new energy security. It takes the
development of new energy vehicles as an important
measure to fundamentally get rid of oil dependence
in the transportation field and determines the
strategic position of new energy vehicles in the form
of laws and regulations. During the Clinton
administration, there were programs aimed at
improving fuel economy, and hybrids were the main
technological solution. In the Bush era, it became a
pursuit of zero emissions and zero oil dependence.
The technical solution was mainly hydrogen fuel
cell vehicles. Later, there was a plan to achieve 20%
oil replacement and savings in ten years, mainly by
biomass fuel. Now. Developed countries such as
Europe, the United States, and Japan attach great
importance to the core content, using the
government, enterprises, and research institutions of
the R&D system for different degrees of research and
development. However, the differences in the basis
of the automobile industry, industrial advantages, and
development ideas in different countries eventually
form different technical emphasis routes. Japanese
companies take hybrid as their main models and have
developed gas-electric thermal hybrid technology
that can be applied on a large scale. Europe is
involved in the fields of thermal hybrid power
technology, pure electric vehicle technology, and
hydrogen fuel vehicle. Hydrogen fuel vehicle is the
focus of European research and development,
including both hydrogen fuel cell vehicle and
hydrogen internal combustion engine vehicle. In
addition, Europe is the world leader in the field of
biodiesel vehicle industrial applications. In terms of
technology research and development and industrial
practice of new energy technologies in the United
States, they mainly focus on hydrogen energy and
fuel cell vehicles.
In recent years, Tesla Company created by Musk
has achieved great success in recent years, gaining a
global reputation in the trolley field and becoming the
industry leader in the trolley industry [11]. In 2020,
Tesla sold 147,997 cars in China, of which 94% were
domestic Model 3. Its global sales volume is 499,550,
and the sales volume in the Chinese market accounts
for 29.6%. In 2021, the global registered sales
volume of new energy vehicles is 6,501,400. Tesla
wins the global sales volume with 935,700, which is
1.6 times of BYD in the second place, accounting for
14.4% of the global new energy passenger car
market. The pure electric market accounted for
20.3%. At the same time, the strong rise of Tesla also
leads the wave of the development of new energy
electric cars. More capital and talents enter the
industrial chain research and development of new
energy electric cars, injecting new vitality into the
new energy electric car industry. What follows is the
continuous improvement of market competitiveness.
Due to the new crown the spread of the epidemic that
began in late 2019 led to the development of the
global economy, the current decline in global chip
industry production, demand for the auto chip in the
new energy car is great, and a lot of chip
manufacturing industry chain supply can't support
the demand of the new energy car, also leading to a
fall in new energy capacity of electric cars, compared
with the rapid development of a few years ago, In
recent three years, the growth rate of the new energy
trolley industry has been reduced.
3. Literature review
New energy car entered the Chinese market, the new
energy market share increased year by year, and sales
of electric cars and ownership is in rapid
development, at present, China's vehicle ownership
according to figures released by China's transport
sector has been more than three hundred million
vehicles, but until 2021 the Chinese market of new
energy car market than just still account for 13% of
the total market share, In China, the main body of
automobiles is still fuel cars, which have stable
power output. After hundreds of years of
development, the vehicle manufacturing process
system is mature, and the supporting service system
of vehicles is gradually improved, so it still occupies
a leading position in China's automobile sales
market. However, the power source of fuel vehicles
is non-renewable fossil fuels, which can obtain the
target and ideal power output. However, the cost of
using these fossil fuels is to produce a large amount
of harmful automobile exhaust and noise pollution,
which will make the fragile ecological balance faced
with a more serious burden. For example: Forcing
global warming to intensify, leading to the loss of ice
in the Arctic and Antarctic, and extreme weather in
many countries and regions, these ripple effects will
cause untold harm to people in many regions [12].
Therefore, to reduce the occurrence of these natural
disasters that cause great harm to human beings,
increasing the market share of new energy trams is an
effective way, which also shows the potential
advantages of increasing the sales of new energy
trams and the correctness of selection. In China's
automobile sales market, before customers choose to

buy a car, there are a lot of factors: the rationality of
the vehicle price, the exquisite appearance, the
collocation of interior decoration, the noise of the
vehicle, the comfort of driving, the use cost, and the
cost of later maintenance.
3.1 Forecast of passenger car market structure
and environmental impact analysis in China
Through the analysis of the current passenger car
market in China and the use of scientific digital
modelling --The Lotka-Volterra model, the purpose
is to predict the size of China's passenger car market
in the next 30 years and the proportion between fuel
cars and new energy trams [13]. According to this
literature, it is finally predicted that in the Chinese car
market in 2040, There will be a period of replacement
between old and new energy sources. The planning
of Chinese government decision-making
departments and Chinese new energy tram
enterprises will promote the new energy tram to
become the mainstream of the market. The Lotka-
Volterra model provides a new method to predict the
relationship between market share changes. It can
make comprehensive judgments from various aspects
under the action of comprehensive factors such as the
change in the international economic environment,
the fluctuation of China's domestic market, and the
change in the external natural environment. The
ultimate purpose is to predict the relationship
between new energy trams in the passenger car
market from the perspective of the overall market.
And the predictability of the growth of new energy
electric cars and the importance of social decisions,
to put forward policy suggestions [14].
From the perspective of market implementation,
to continue to vigorously promote new energy
electric passenger vehicles and to continue to
promote the proportion of new energy trams in
China's automobile market, China needs to give
higher priority to new energy trams, such as the
mandatory electrification of right-of-way, public or
shared fleets [15]. Meanwhile, the Chinese
government and enterprises should continue to
strengthen the research and development of
infrastructure, electric vehicle power batteries, and
charging and discharging technologies. The
government should focus on investing in the
construction of clean energy upstream of passenger
vehicles and strengthen the coordinated development
of the industrial chain of new energy electric cars.
Considering the direction of setting energy
conservation and emission reduction targets, China
should set different energy conservation and
emission reduction targets. In addition to achieving
the maximum possible energy conservation and
emission reduction targets through technological
innovation and green upgrading of each component,
the level of atmospheric environmental pollution and
some priority pollution sources should also be
assessed to achieve comprehensive energy
conservation and emission reduction and contribute
to the global ecological environment balance [16].
From the perspective of policy measures, policies
need to give technical subsidies to key enterprises
and related technologies, and incentives should be
slowly reduced. Use tax means to control the market,
and macro-control the market to promote the
progress of the new energy trolley industry and
strengthen the implementation. At the same time, the
establishment of a market exchange platform
between enterprises and the government to promote
mutual benefit and win-win results is in line with the
goals of China's Belt and Road Initiative
3.2 Who buys New Energy Vehicles in China?
Assessing social-psychological predictors of
purchasing awareness, intention, and policy
The literature investigates psychosocial factors to
explain why it is important for Chinese drivers to buy
new energy vehicles, including hybrid electric cars,
battery electric cars, and fuel-powered cars [17].
Using six test dimensions: attitude, subjective norm,
perceived behavioral control, personal norm, low
carbon awareness, and policy [18], the author
conducted a questionnaire survey on potential
customers and obtained three main findings: 1. Low
carbon awareness will have a slight regulating effect
and influence on the purchasing behaviour of
potential customers through psychological factors. 2.
The influence of subjective norms is far greater than
other social factors in customers' purchase intention
of new energy electric cars. 3. The government has a
positive influence on the new energy electric car and
plays a positive role in its development in terms of
policy tendency. The psychological factors affecting
customers in the purchase process are used to
objectively analyse the influence of these six
dimensions on the purchase of new electric cars.
3.3 The government regulation and market
behaviour of the new energy automotive industry
Environmental issues and cleaner production are
receiving increasing attention. Cleaner production
with low emissions and sustainable consumption are
of great significance. Traditional energy vehicles are
more and more unsuitable for the development of
today's society. New energy vehicles to accelerate the
replacement of traditional energy vehicles is the trend
in the current automobile market [19].

Support for government's new energy automobile
market, the author has carried on the theoretical
research, set up, including domestic and imported
new energy automobile manufacturers, data model,
through the analysis of the model, this paper argues
that the government subsidies, tariffs, and other
supporting policies can effectively expand domestic
technology content low market share of new energy
vehicles [18]. But this approach is not sustainable, as
domestic NEVs with lower technology content can
only survive in the market by narrowing the gap with
imported brands. This paper establishes a
Stackelberg model with product price as the decision
variable and finds that when there is a technology
gap, the first-mover advantage in the market will no
longer exist. Finally, this paper compares the two
subsidy methods of domestic new energy vehicles
and finds that there is no difference between the two
subsidy methods and subsidizing consumers or
enterprises to expand market share [20].
Whether in the process of daily use or in market
recognition, new energy vehicles are temporarily
unable to be compared with traditional energy
vehicles. Therefore, in the market competition
between new energy vehicles and traditional energy
vehicles, the new energy vehicle industry needs to
rely on government support. In countries with
relatively backward technology, to ensure the healthy
development of the domestic new energy vehicle
industry. Governments also need to erect trade
barriers to reduce the impact of foreign products from
high-tech countries on domestic industries.
Under the premise of the same government
subsidy intensity, the government with the goal of
maximizing social welfare is more suitable to take the
way of subsidizing consumers to promote the
development of the renewable energy vehicle
industry. The principle of subsidizing consumers is
different from that of subsidizing producers. When
the government subsidizes consumers, an increase in
disposable income leads to an increase in demand,
which boosts production. The effect of government
subsidies on consumers is more direct than subsidies
to producers because the former avoids the
possibility of producer fraud.
3.4 Hierarchical optimization decision-making
method to comply with China’s fuel consumption
and new energy vehicle credit regulations.
To achieve the goal of carbon neutrality in 2060, the
Chinese government has put forward extremely high
requirements for energy conservation and emission
reduction in the new energy electric car industry [21].
The Chinese government's actions, due to fuel
consumption and new energy vehicle credit policy
system has a significant impact on China and even
the global auto market. Fuel consumption and new
energy vehicles in China lack credit laws and
regulations system evaluation model, based on the
technological frontier curve hierarchical
optimization decision-making model and contain
China market and technology, product and enterprise
data of database, using different algorithms for the
future development of China's market planning
industry feasibility of reasonable risk assessment. To
improve the regulatory evaluation model of
traditional fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles in
China by establishing a dual monitoring system, to
simulate and evaluate the technology compliance and
policy impact under multiple regulations [22]. The
authors put forward new ideas :
A hierarchical optimization decision-making
method based on technology frontier curve is
proposed to guide the formulation and decision-
making strategy of the industry technology
roadmap of OEM.
To evaluate the official credit supervision system
of China's automobile market and put forward the
quantitative evaluation of supervision synergy
effect and policy compliance, which is conducive
to the protection of the rights of producers and
consumers.
3.5 Key Literature Summary
According to the literature can be found in the
introduction of China's car is still in the traditional
fuel vehicles as the main market, new energy car is
still in after a few years the rapid development of
industry competitive disadvantage, so the analysis of
the Chinese consumers are bought on data modelling
using big data analysis summary, the influencing
factors of consumers shopping choice: the early stage
of the vehicle's price , the use cost of the vehicle
during the service period: energy use cost,
commercial insurance cost, and the maintenance cost
of the vehicle caused by the aging of the vehicle.
Secondly, the convenience of life, the comfort of
driving, and the power output of the vehicle are all
key considerations for consumers. At present most of
the city planning in China is behind The Times
development, led to the new energy vehicle parking
and charging has become a main problem of urban
development, the shortcomings of China's urban
infrastructure services are a normalized problem,
need spend a lot of time cost and government fiscal
spending to meet the current rapid development of
new energy car industry of high demand. From the
perspective of the development of The Times, the
development of new energy electric cars can delay
the coming of energy crisis and the use of non-

renewable fossil resources to a certain extent, to seek
more time for the development of cleaner and more
convenient green energy. Another serious
environmental deterioration in today's international,
Eurasia up extreme climate, its basic reason is the
increasing industrial development and energy
consumption lead to a lot of pollution, the pollution
is global warming and greenhouse effect induced
catalyst, use clean green energy as the core power
output can alleviate this destructive global disaster.
With the development of science technology,
improving the core of the new energy battery
technology has become the field of new energy car
development acceleration and point to the policy, the
popularization and research and development in
terms of charging pile development, new energy car
companies provide different types of charging
service: alternating current (ac) slow filling and dc
fast charging service, in guarantee under the premise
of safety facilities for the product quality With great
improvement and help, improve the service quality
level of supporting services, provide a variety of
choices to meet different needs. To improve the
supporting service level of new energy trams and
make the use of new energy trams more convenient
and cost saving for consumers, will promote
consumers' car purchase tendency and decision
making. The goal is to increase the sales of new
energy trams, expand the social influence of trams,
and the theme of low carbon and environmental
protection fits each other.
China's government in policy of macro regulation
and control, from big help in the early development
of new energy industry and made clear instructions to
suit the Chinese market in the future, only the
continued expansion of China's new energy market
can mobilize more capital into the new energy
industry, resulting in more powerful production
power, and form a good circulation, complete carbon
neutral policy goals.
4. Research Methodology
Paper mainly research in the present international
situation is complex, the international oil price
volatility, international industry competition is the
increasingly fierce, increasingly severe ecological
environment, and under the condition of non-
renewable resources is used up big, the Chinese car
market as the world's largest market, between the
traditional fuel cars and new energy car market share,
does not conform to the international principles of
sustainable development [23], Chinese tram
companies and local governments need to make
positive decisions on the development and promotion
of new energy trams in the face of many pressures.
Through quantitative analysis of the social
phenomenon of quantity characteristics, quantity
relationship, and quantity change analysis and
demonstration, using the PEST analysis method for
the Chinese market to analyse all aspects of the social
macro environment, understand the potential of
China's new energy car market and rising space, at
the same time also analysis the development of
Chinese electric limitation and must be overcome.
The goal is to improve the limitations of China's
automobile market and enhance the sustainable
development ability of the market. In terms of
environmental protection, we can also reduce the
consumption of non-renewable fossil fuels and the
damage of automobile exhaust emissions to the
ecological environment by reducing the use of fuel
vehicles. Finally, realize the resource-saving and
environment-friendly Chinese automobile market.
By new energy for China in the recent ten years of
production and sales of electric vehicles, a new
energy car company in the last ten years of
production and operation, this paper analyses the data
report of the Chinese government white paper and
official documents issued by the transport sector,
China passenger car association's official data were
collected for reliable secondary data for
proofreading. The annual trend and future
development trend of the research data are finally
combined with the objective and external
environment of the Chinese market to make a
reasonable analysis of the small market share of
China's new energy trams and summarize the
difficult development process and make a
comprehensive discussion with PEST analysis. Also
need to consider the limitations of secondary data:
data correlation of poor, poor timeliness, accuracy,
poor, telling the development of China's market
competition pressure is great, in the new energy car
need to improve their own core technology, the core
technology of lead is superior to the traditional fuel
vehicles, some short to make up for their own can
quickly occupy the market more smoothly.
4.1 Research Philosophy and Approach

the situation of complex cases, through some
powerful measures to ensure the development of new
energy car, Prepare in advance for future energy
crises. Quantitative analysis and PEST analysis are
mainly used Through quantitative analysis, the
understanding of the research object can be further
refined, to reveal the law, grasp the essence, clarify
the relationship, and predict the development trend of
the market more scientifically. In the face of China's
auto market under the condition of unbalanced
development, through objective evidence that the
rational analysis of large data, the future of China's
auto market is to develop new energy cars as the
main, but the data analysis of the current 2021 come
out conclusion is that China's new energy car industry
compared with the traditional fuel vehicle is a
disadvantage, low market share. At the same time, it
also uses the PEST analysis method: politics,
economy, society, and technology to conduct a macro
analysis of the reasons for the small proportion of
new energy trams in the Chinese market. The macro
environment is used to make a comprehensive
discussion according to the external and internal
environment of China's automobile industry.
4.2 Research Theme and Objectives
4.2.1. Why do new energy vehicles have a low
share in the Chinese market?
According to the data from the China Association of
Automobile Manufacturers, the sales volume of new
energy vehicles in China from 2016 to 2021 has been
510,000 [24]. The sales volume of new energy
vehicles in 2016 accounted for 1.8% of the total car
sales volume in China.
Figure 2. EV Sales in China (2016-2021) [24]
In 2017 and 2018, the annual sales volume of new
energy vehicles increased by 53.3% and 61.6%,
respectively, entering a rapid growth trend. In 2019,
due to the economic downturn in the market, the
shortage of chips in the auto industry led to a decrease
in sales volume. The annual growth reached the
lowest in the recent five years, as the total sales
volume in China's auto market decreased, and the
share of new energy increased by 0.2% compared
with 2018 [24]. In 2021, China's new energy vehicle
sales had a dramatic growth, the sales of 3.52 million
new energy vehicles, the growth rate was as high as
157.6%, and new energy accounted for 13.4% of the
total sales [24].
Figure 3. Sales Accounted for EV [24]
According to the chart data, although the sales
volume of new energy vehicles in China is increasing
year by year, and the production capacity of new
energy vehicles is gradually increasing, the market
share is still far smaller than that of traditional fuel
vehicles after the development of recent years, and
the mainstream of China's auto market is still fuel
vehicles. New energy vehicles in the Chinese market
are still at a stage of development.
4.2.2 How to promote the development of China's
EV industry.
As an important part of the development of the future
era, new energy electric cars can not only reduce the
consumption of non-renewable resources of
traditional gasoline vehicles but also reduce the harm
caused by automobile exhaust emissions to the
human body. Therefore, the vigorous development of
the new energy vehicle industry is conducive to the
progress of The Times, and improving the market
share of new energy electric cars and fuel cars will
bring a lot of benefits. As an important part of the
development of the future era, new energy electric
cars can not only reduce the consumption of non-
renewable resources of traditional gasoline vehicles
but also reduce the harm caused by automobile
exhaust emissions to the human body. Therefore, the
vigorous development of the new energy vehicle
industry is conducive to the progress of The Times,
and improving the market share of new energy
electric cars and fuel cars will bring a lot of benefits.

4.2.3 Add the sales of new energy vehicles to
improve the market share of the Chinese
automobile market.
The emission of electric vehicle exhaust and large
consumption of non-renewable fossil fuels will
further deteriorate the unstable ecological balance.
According to the current trend of The Times,
increasing the sales of new energy vehicles can
effectively solve the problem of environmental
deterioration and improve the quality of life of
residents. Rational use of renewable energy instead
of fossil fuels, to ensure the sustainable development
of the world's resources, and further make a good
plan for human life planning in the future. In addition,
the power source of fuel for cars is mainly oil, as a
crude oil importer, China's great dependence on oil
imports, with the international economic situation is
not optimistic in recent years, the international oil
price volatility, excessive reliance on a large number
of imported crude oil to ensure that domestic
demand, will lead to the national energy security
threatened by the international oil price fluctuations,
is not conducive to the steady development of China's
economy.

4.2.4 Enhance market competitiveness.
The research and development of new energy
vehicles are conducive to stimulating product
upgrading and technological innovation in the
automobile market, mobilizing the enthusiasm of
automobile companies to research and develop new
technologies, and finally contributing wonderful
products to meet the needs of human production and
life as well as the environmental protection
requirements of nature in the competitive market.
Finally, create a more perfect new energy vehicle to
serve mankind. Only enterprises in a crisis will have
enough motivation to improve the deficiencies of
enterprise products, through product optimization
and promotion to comply with the trend of market
development. China's new energy car companies
compared to the United States of the tesla, gm group,
such as Germany's Volkswagen group started late,
the top technical level is not enough, the perfect
degree of the industrial chain is also less, so the new
energy car enterprises in China need to rely on a
series of economic and policy measures to effectively
improve the market competitiveness in the industry
and can secure their market share, Ensure the
sustainable development of the enterprise itself.
4.2.5 Environmental protection
Energy saving and emission reduction, reduce the use
of fossil fuels, reduce the environmental harm caused
by the exhaust gas of fuel vehicles, the adverse
impact on human health, and create a more
harmonious society. It has attracted worldwide
attention since the 1990s. Among them, the car-
oriented transportation area in the city has become
the biggest battlefield for emission reduction.
Countries around the world have issued strict
automobile exhaust emission standards, and energy
conservation and environmental protection have
gradually become the hard requirements and key
factors for the development of the automobile
industry. Electric vehicles to meet the needs of
environmental protection have emerged. In
December 2015 [26], nearly 200 countries and
regions under the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change reached the Paris
Agreement at the Paris Climate Change Conference
[26]. It is the second legally binding climate
agreement after the Kyoto Protocol and sets out
arrangements for post-2020 global action on climate
change. Increasingly stringent environmental
protection protocols will speed up the electrification
process. In Europe, there are many developed
countries that have already planned to realize real low
carbon travel, improving the structure of Europe's
energy use, currently in one of the most successful
European countries, Iceland, is just the energy use of
Iceland is more than 98% of its energy from
renewable green energy, truly the status of the
sustainable development of the energy [27]. China
aims to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2060, At
present, China is extremely dependent on fuel
vehicles. At present, the volume of fuel vehicles in
China is large, and it is difficult for China's
automobile market to carry out the new energy
transformation, and the transition time required is
relatively long. Now, the technology of new energy
trams needs to be improved, which will bring the
development power to the industry under the
incentive of the target. Therefore, measures should be
improved before the general premise of improving
the environment. The ultimate purpose of this
research is to realize a resource-saving and
environment-friendly society.

5. Research Analysis and Results
Through quantitative analysis and PEST analysis
method, from the aspects of policy, economy,
society, and technology perspective analysis of the
subjective and objective factors of the status quo, get
the improvement of China's new energy car industry
and clear goals, the final summary analysis and give
effective strategies and Suggestions to promote the
sustainable development of China's new energy car
industry.
5.1 Pest analysis method
The political system, economic system, fiscal policy,
tax policy, industrial policy, investment policy.
The Chinese government's policy on the new energy
tram industry is constantly changing with the change
of time. China has determined the development
strategy of new energy vehicles and supported the
development of the industry chain of new energy
vehicles. The marketing of new energy vehicles has
been favourable. Since new energy trams entered the
market, the Chinese government has given strong
support in terms of policies. New energy automobile
vehicle tax shall be exempted, new energy vehicles
shall be exempted from tax, new energy automotive
subsidies, adjustment of new energy subsidies,
government agencies and public institutions to
purchase new energy vehicles plan for a series of
measures such as new energy car policy to protect the
new market, new energy vehicles sales in China's
auto sales market has a good start,
China's state council released in May 2015 policy
- "made in China 2025" [28]. The main purpose was
to support the development of China's automobile
industry, encourage enterprises to actively master
automobile low carbonization and intelligent core
technology, promote new energy power batteries for
electric vehicles, drive motor, transmission, vehicle
research and development of core technologies such
as artificial intelligence. It also enabled to form a
complete production system from key parts to vehicle
production, and ultimately promote the development
of Chinese domestic brands, to shorten the distance
between the international auto companies with
advanced technology [28]. In December 2016, The
State Council of China issued the 13th Five-Year
National Strategic Emerging Industries Development
Plan, which set a goal for the development of new
energy electric cars, aiming to achieve the production
of two million and the sales of new energy electric
cars over five million by 2020 [29]. In addition, with
the support of policies, enterprises related to new
energy trams can gain more international
competitiveness in the competition of China's
automobile market. In April 2020, the Ministry of
Finance, the State Administration of Taxation, and
the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
of China issued a new policy -- "Announcement on
the Relevant Policies of the Exemption of Vehicle
Purchase Tax for New Energy Vehicles". The
Chinese government actively and positively guided
the development of new energy vehicles from
January 2021 to December 31, 2022, to reduce and
exempt the purchase tax for new energy vehicles.
However, with the growth over time, the subsidies
for new energy vehicles decline, and the
government's support decreases. According to the
official documents of the Chinese government, since
2015, the Chinese government has given huge
preferential welfare policies to support the
development of new energy electric cars in the
market. To help the new power of new energy electric
cars to hold the market share, the financial subsidies
of the policy are surprising. Until 2019, subsidies for
new energy trams with a range of less than 250km
will be exempted, and subsidies for more expensive
and longer-range models will be reduced, gradually
making new energy trams adapt to the pace of
competition in China's auto market.
Despite the Chinese government's strong policy
support for the development of new energy trams The
outbreak of the COVID in 2019 to now, the world
economy, also led to the government's fiscal income
reduction, reduced subsidies for new energy cars,
also reduce the buyer's shopping enthusiasm for new
energy cars [30], according to the data analysis in the
future forecast China's push to achieve the goal of
carbon neutrality date will be delayed with the
change of the policy. Once the policy does not give
financial subsidies, the price of new energy trams at
the same level is much higher than that of traditional
fuel planning, which will reduce the competitiveness
of new energy trams in the automobile market.
5.2 Economic environment
China's second-hand car market is too large, and the
market competition pressure According to the
Ministry of Public Security, the number of motor
vehicles in China reached 395 million in 2021,
including 302 million cars; The number of motor
vehicle drivers reached 481 million, of which 444
million were automobile drivers [31]. In 2021, 36.74
million motor vehicles were newly registered, with
27.5 million newly licensed drivers. The number of
new energy vehicles reached 7.84 million. By the end
of 2021, the total number of new energy vehicles in
China reached 7.84 million, accounting for 2.60% of
the total number of vehicles. Excluding scrap notes,
the sales volume increased by 2.92 million compared

with 2020, an increase of 59.25%. Among them, the
number of pure electric vehicles is 6.4 million,
accounting for 81.63% of the total number of new
energy vehicles [31].
The number of car transfer registrations in China
continues to grow. In 2021, China's public security
traffic administration departments handled 30.48
million motor vehicle transfer registrations. Among
them, 29.23 million cases of car transfer registration
business, accounting for 95.90 percent. In the past
five years, the proportion of transfer registration of
second-hand cars and registration of new cars has
increased from 0.67 to 1.11, which is more than the
registration of new cars. Under the positive boost of
the policies such as the cancellation of the "relocation
restriction" of second-hand cars and registration of
second-hand cars in other places, the second-hand car
trading market has become increasingly active. A
used car in the car market tends to have better cost
performance and can let customers use lower prices
to get the ideal models, with the continuous
development of social informatization, China's
second-hand car trading market is increasingly
mature and transparent, and the rights and interests of
consumer protection are doing more and more in
place, avoid the dealer to buy the high-priced trick,
poor quality of used cars, The normalization of the
market will allow used cars to have a better priority
in vehicle selection and family utility. Car price is
one of the main factors affecting the choice of car.
Due to the rapid development and innovation of
new EV, the emergence of new technologies will lead
to the reduction of the market value of the previous
generation of trams, and lead to a low rate of car
retention. Car retention is also an important
consideration for Chinese customers before they buy
a car. The development of new energy electric cars is
like that of smartphones a few years ago. While
developing rapidly and occupying a certain market
share, the technology is also constantly improving,
and the price is constantly optimized. For example,
when Tesla first entered the Chinese market, the price
of Model3 reached nearly one million CNY. After
several years of upgrading and the establishment of a
Tesla factory in Shanghai, China, Tesla increased
Tesla's output. The price of Tesla Model3 has been
reduced to 300,000 RMB, and the price of Model-Y
has been reduced to 700,000-1 million RMB from
nearly 2 million RMB in the past, depending on the
cheap labour force and preferential policies in the
Chinese market as well as the local material selection
with high-cost performance. Therefore, the model of
the new energy tram is too fast for the new one, which
will cause the value of the sold vehicles to depreciate
substantially.
Parts-to-Whole Price Ratio
The parts-to-Whole Price ratio of an automobile is
the ratio between the sum of the parts price of a
specific model and the sales price of the whole
vehicle. As a durable consumer product, the initial
purchase cost and subsequent use cost of an
automobile are both large expenses. Therefore, the
larger the zero ratios are, the more money needs to be
spent on the later maintenance of the vehicle.
Therefore, when buying a car, customers also need to
consider the zero ratios of the car into the cost of
using the car, which leads to the high Parts-to-Whole
Price ratio of the car will increase the cost of using
the car and lead the change in the choice of buying
the car. The high battery maintenance cost of new
energy trams is an important factor affecting car
sales. The replacement price of power batteries for
energy vehicles is determined by battery capacity,
brand, and process type. , as the core parts of new
energy vehicles, power battery costs are generally
accounted for 40% to 60% of the cost of a car, and if
the new energy car battery technology, carrying on
the new energy electric vehicle battery model and
types are different, so the process is more
complicated, the technology is more advanced
battery technology extra costs will be higher than the
market average. When customers understand
LingZheng than data, the consumer is relatively clear
in replacement of parts of the maintenance cost and
the link between the vehicle price, to know the
maintenance cost differences between various
brands, various models, to a greater degree under the
existing conditions of increase consumers' right to
know and options, high LingZheng than is new
energy car sales slow growth in one of the original
Use Cost of Vehicle
New energy car on use cost depends on the country's
lower prices, can be achieved with new energy car
use cost low, 0.2 to 0.4 CNY per kilometres, and then
the use of traditional fuel vehicle costs will change
with fluctuations in international oil prices,
represented by 2.0 t fuel vehicle, the fees will be in
0.9 to 1.2 CNY per kilometres of transport costs. It
can be clearly seen that in terms of the use cost per
kilometres, the new energy tram can save several
times the energy payment per kilometres.
On December 27, 2021, the exclusive insurance
of new energy vehicles was officially announced, and
12 mainstream property insurance companies began
to sell exclusive new energy vehicle insurance
products simultaneously. The biggest change is that
the premium of new energy vehicles is rising,
especially since the insurance cost of electric vehicles
is more expensive. The commercial insurance

structure of insurance companies, commercial
insurance for electric vehicles begins to pay attention
to the safety of the vehicle itself, especially the safety
of the battery, as well as the possible losses caused to
other vehicles by the occurrence of spontaneous
combustion and deflagration. Therefore, under the
new exclusive insurance, the battery, electric control,
electric drive, as well as charging pile outside the car
are covered by the insurance! And the maximum
three insurance coverage of new energy vehicles can
be increased to 40 million CNY. In fact, from the
point of view of insurance companies, electric
vehicles based on new energy vehicles substantially
increase the premium, because electric vehicles
related to accidents or unilateral accidents, easy to
cause greater losses, such as the general fuel car
parked in the parking space, after the flare out,
generally there is no potential danger; However,
when a new energy vehicle is parked in a parking
space for charging, it is normal for the car to be
burned down in case of fire or deflagrate, which will
also damage other vehicles. To reasonably avoid
risks, the premium of the new energy trolley rises.
However, the comprehensive annual use cost of fuel
vehicles and new energy electricity will find that the
use cost of new energy tram for owners with small
vehicle demand will be higher than that of fuel
vehicles, so the advantage of low expenditure of new
energy vehicles will be lost, which will affect the
choice of consumption.
5.3 Social environment
China, the third largest country in the world, is in the
east of Asia. The terrain of China declines from west
to east, and the terrain is complex and diverse: plains,
hills, mountains, pelvic floor, plateaued, depressions
and other different topographies are intricately
alternating. The density of population is a state of
population distribution gradually decreasing from the
southeast coastal zone to the interior. The dense
population in the southeast coastal zone and the
mature highway planning in the flat plain and hilly
areas are well developed. The economic development
of the provinces in the southeast is far beyond the
economic development of the inland areas.
Therefore, the objective geographical location factors
have led to the unbalanced development of China's
urban economy, and the degree of urban economic
development has gradually decreased from
developed to backward from the southeast coastal
areas to the inland areas. As a result, the consumption
ability of southwest, central, and northwest China is
limited, the ability to buy transportation tools is
insufficient and the market potential is low. In
addition, in China's northeast and northwest regions,
new energy electric vehicles do not perform well in
adapting to harsh natural conditions. In winter, the
temperature in northeast China can reach below zero.
According to the test results of current new energy
trams, vehicle endurance and power are facing great
challenges. In the face of the hot weather conditions,
the power consumption of the new energy car project
increase, and the vehicle's power output more, less
range, in addition, most of the new energy car range
is provided by the company under the condition of
the ideal state of the argument, once the vehicle
within open most of the electronics to produce
electricity can influence range, There is a risk that the
vehicle will stall or stall during use. Therefore, in the
face of a complex geographical environment, the
labelled range is not consistent with the actual
mileage, and most fuel vehicles have been proven to
have better performance in the face of these special
road conditions after decades of practice. According
to the winter endurance performance of six pure
electric cars released by the China Automobile
Research Institute, the winter endurance decline rate
of electric cars is more than 30%, among which the
standard endurance of Model 3 models is 36.9%; The
endurance decline rate of NIO EC6 was 42.1%; Byd
Han endurance decline rate of 30.9%; Xpeng P7
endurance drop rate is 42.3%; The BMW iX3's range
drop rate was 36.6%; Ne Zha Pro 500 lunar version
has an endurance drop rate of 42.4%.
China is the biggest developing country in the
world, starting in the 1980 s reform policy
development to the present, the urban planning layout
is affected by the original backward city layout, only
in the original city based on improvement and
adjustment, optimize the structure of urban planning
and so most of the layout of the city is limited by the
past layout, There is a shortage of charging piles and
parking Spaces in cities.
With the development of China's new energy tram
market, car sales are also increasing year by year.
However, with the development of new energy trams,
supporting facilities in cities need to be improved,
such as the development of charging piles. The
endurance of the new energy tram relies on the output
of electricity to provide the power source of the
vehicle running, which is the core of the tram moving
forward. Therefore, to ensure the endurance and
normal use of the vehicle, it is necessary to timely
charge the new energy tram. Due to the surging
development momentum of new energy electric
vehicles, the demand for charging piles also
increases, and the growth rate of vehicles exceeds the
growth of supporting facilities, resulting in the
phenomenon of more charging piles and fewer
charging piles for new energy electric vehicles. The

high installation cost of private charging piles will
increase the car cost for customers, which will
increase their concerns when buying cars. In
addition, when installing private charging piles, it is
necessary to declare with the local community and
property management, and the complicated handling
process will also affect the car purchase choice.
In the planning of supporting facilities in the city,
there are few public charging piles, and public
transportation tools such as buses need to be met first,
while the charging demand of private new energy
trams cannot be met. China is also a highway power,
by 2021 China's highway traffic mileage of 169100
kilometres, inside of highway service area for
charging pile supporting is less, can meet a lot of new
energy car on the highway in the demand for
charging, so often appear in the service area in long
lines such as charging pile. These objective
conditions also affect the choice of new energy
electric cars for potential customer purchases.
And after 2008 years in China, the real estate
industry is developing rapidly, but at the time parking
planning is designed based on per capita vehicle
ownership at that time, which also led to the many
old residential space planning in China can't keep up
with the growth of the vehicle speed, parking is
always difficult for owners can become a headache
problem, when can meet the case, car parked The
charging demand of electric cars is more difficult to
meet. In cities with a large proportion of old urban
areas, it is difficult to effectively increase the sales
volume and market share of electric cars. These
objective infrastructure conditions also hinder the
promotion of new energy electric cars in many areas.
In addition, private charging pile installation is
difficult, such as the capital of China, Beijing
residents install private charging pile is the premise
of the need for charging pile installation by means of
a lottery, then also need and residence of the
residents' committees and the examination and
approval, after multiple processes to install personal
charging pile, so private charging pile installation
process is complicated, Multiple installation
conditions. Also led to the low enthusiasm of many
residents to buy new energy electric cars. For the
installation of private charging piles, a sum
installation fee is generally between 3,000 and 5,000
RMB, and the owner of the tram also needs to pay the
installation fee personally. There are still many
challenges in the installation of public charging piles
in communities. According to the national conditions
of China, parking Spaces in most communities
belong to community owners rather than individuals,
and the disassembly and installation of public
facilities can only be carried out with the consent of
all community owners or more than 80% of owners.
Due to the inconsistency between the interests of fuel
car owners and the interests of new energy electric
car owners, as well as the normal social problem of
tight parking spaces, public charging piles in many
communities are not installed and popularized. This
means that when it comes to charging new energy
electric cars, owners need to go outside the
community for charging. The owner of the new
energy tram needs to pay more effort into
successfully charging the vehicle to meet the normal
use of the next day.
5.4 Technical environment
The production of new energy vehicles in China's car
companies, the new energy car battery life, and
charging capability has been the development of new
energy car, Tesla, GM and so on the international big
group for China's car companies for new energy car
battery technology limited, contributed to the local
Chinese car company's market competitiveness,
Therefore, China's new energy electric car company
still has great room for improvement in the
competitiveness of transnational electric car in the
world [32]. Over the past decade, electric vehicles,
driven by rapid advances in lithium-ion battery
technology, have dramatically transformed the
automotive industry globally. However, fire risks and
hazards associated with high-energy batteries have
become a major safety concern for electric vehicles,
where thermal runaway or fire can occur due to
extremely abusive conditions, which can result from
faulty operations or traffic accidents. Then, the
failure of the battery can be accompanied by the
release of toxic gases, fires, jet flames, and
explosions. Common causes of electric vehicle fires
include spontaneous combustion of parked vehicles
due to arson or continuous abuse, such as fire during
charging, spontaneous combustion while driving, and
fire after traffic accidents such as high-speed
collisions. Social security factors caused by these
batteries are all important factors affecting car
buyers' purchase choices [33]. As an inevitable
choice for the future development of new energy
trams, safety investigation in the driving process is
the priority. At present, Chinese automobile
enterprises lack the technical level to solve the fire
caused by lithium batteries. At present, the charging
technology of new EV can be divided into DC fast
charge and AC slow charge [34]. However, the
difference between a fast charge and the slow charge
is that the slow charge uses standard charging current
for charging, while a fast charge uses several times or
even tens of times of current higher than the standard
charging current for charging. AC charging pile,

commonly known as "slow charge": mature
technology [35], low barriers, low construction cost,
but low charging efficiency, suitable for public
parking lots, large shopping centres, and community
garages, AC pile has low requirements on the
transformation of the power grid. It needs to change
voltage and rectify the AC power of the power grid
through the vehicular charger first, and then charge
the car battery after converting it to direct current.
Therefore, the charging speed is slow, and it usually
takes 6 to 8 hours to be fully charged. DC charging
pile, commonly known as "fast charging": high
power, fast charging, but complex technology and
high cost, suitable for professional centralized
operation and maintenance scenarios, such as buses,
buses, taxis, etc. The DC charging pile can complete
voltage converter rectification through its own
AC/DC charging module and convert the input AC
power into the DC power required by the trolley. The
power of the DC pile is usually above 60KW. In
2020, the power of the newly added DC pile reaches
131KW. Dc piles have high requirements on the
power grid, which requires the construction of a
special network and equipment such as harmonic
wave suppression devices. Therefore, they are mostly
installed in centralized charging stations and
managed by operators.
The vehicle pile ratio is one of the key indicators
to measure the degree of charging pile construction.
Since China National Point Network fully opened the
construction of public piles in 2014 and The State
Council put forward the strategic target of a 1:1
vehicle pile ratio is 2015, the proportion of the market
retention rate of new energy trams and charging piles,
From 8.8:1 in 2015 to 3:1 in 2021, the charging
support has been significantly improved. Although
there is still a gap between the 1:1 vehicle pile ratio
and the target proposed earlier, the enterprise has
verified the rationality of the vehicle pile ratio in
practical application by adjusting the way of
construction. With the increase in battery capacity
and DC charging pile power, the user's focus will
change from charging pile quantity to charging pile
quality.
Reasonable public charging pile layout, power
charging piles, and piles of private construction will
offset part of the demand on public charging pile
number [36], pile than expected, according to the
ownership change car hard to volatility in the short
term, medium and long term considering the
sustained and rapid growth of new energy car
ownership, so charging pile of form a complete set of
equipment will be as the growth of the time will be
improved [37].
6 Conclusions and Recommendations
China's market is too large, which also leads to the
fact that once the Chinese government announces
new policies, the desired effect cannot be achieved in
a short period of time. In addition, China's national
conditions determine that The State Council, after
issuing new policies, conducts macro-control on the
market and sets the general direction. Each provincial
administrative department will need a policy based
on the local actual situation of specialized processing,
and every city in China does not match the demand
for the new trolley, city of supporting facilities, such
as China's Shenzhen, as a small fishing village from
the last century 80 developed into China's cities, The
reserve of urban planning and urban allocation
facilities is more in line with the requirements of
modern development. China's Xinjiang has a vast
landform, and the desert adjacent occupies most of
the area, so the local demand for vehicles is mainly
SUVs with excellent endurance and off-road ability.
Most cities are tens of kilometres apart, and most of
them are deserted deserts. Therefore, the
implementation of policies in these special areas is
less than expected [38].
It takes too long for China's policy
implementation to be effective. European countries
can quickly make plans to achieve zero carbon
emission according to their own conditions, while
China's huge volume needs a long transitional period
to achieve a zero-carbon emission target.
Battery charging technology, the core technology
of new energy trams, is not perfect. As the largest
developing country, the allocation of charging piles
in most cities of China cannot meet the changing
needs of all new energy trams, and the scarce parking
Spaces in big cities cannot meet the changing needs
of new energy trams. In addition, drivers need to
waste a lot of time and energy in the process of
looking for charging piles and waiting for charging.
These objective factors will affect the subsequent
choices of other potential car buyers. Therefore, the
research and development and breakthrough in
battery technology of new energy trams are the power
source of the development speed of the tram market.
China's government and new energy car
enterprises should develop new energy cars in
strategic decisions in the target customer purchase
priority, the government on policy support, enterprise
in technology and service in the industry to improve
the service quality and optimize the product efficacy,
from upstream to downstream industry chain in all
aspects of upgrading and development, shake to the
dominance of traditional fuel cars at present.

6.1 Key Recommendations
Publicize the advantages of new energy vehicles.
The popularity of new energy trams is the trend of the
future development of The Times. Therefore, the
government and enterprises need to do a good job in
publicity and make the advantages of new energy
trams:
[1]. Use electricity as the power source, instead of
non-renewable fuel, reduce the consumption of
non-renewable fuel, and save energy.
[2]. Reduce automobile exhaust emissions and
contribute to the protection of the environment.
[3]. With the fluctuation and rise of international oil
prices, the use of new energy trams can
effectively reduce the use cost per kilometres.
[4]. The noise of new energy electricity is low, and
the noise pollution in the society is reduced.
Publicity was carried out through social media
and public platforms to improve the public's
awareness and popularity of new energy trams.
Improving the technical research and development
of enterprises and improve the defects of new energy
vehicles.
New EV companies need to spend more on R&D
funds and manpower to improve the enterprise's core
technology, the purpose is to improve the shortage of
the new energy car: charging low speed, low car
battery life, trams for environmental adaptability of
the weak, the autopilot of artificial intelligence,
emergency auxiliary safe driving, automotive
electronic components failure rate higher. Improve
the market competitiveness of new energy trams
compared to traditional fuel cars, seek more market
share of sales, and become leading car industry.
New EV enterprises should also actively respond
to local policies and policies and interpret the
development direction and profit points of enterprises
from the new policies issued by the government.
While gaining more economic benefits, they should
also continuously assume social responsibilities, save
energy and reduce emissions, and make their
contribution to the mitigation of global warming and
greenhouse benefits.
In terms of the endurance capacity of new energy
vehicles, automobile enterprises can actively
research and develop electric changing technology.
Compared with the energy replenishment of batteries
of new energy trams by charging piles, the
popularization and research, and development of
electric changing technology is a more excellent
choice. So far as the new energy car market share
increase year by year, the popularity of charging pile
speed and urban coverage are unable to meet the
objective demand of residents use the user and the
contradiction of charging is increasingly intensified,
charging and slowing the development of new energy
car is the limited and short board, Tesla, BYD, xiao
peng, the new energy car super-fast charging device,
Compared with the previous slow charging
equipment, the charging time is reduced and the
charging efficiency is increased, but it is followed by
the acceleration loss of the Dianchi lake of the new
energy trolley and the increase of the charging cost.
The appearance of the invisible super-fast charging
cannot solve the core problems of charging difficulty
and slowness. In addition to the uneven distribution
of the public charging pile, super quick charge
involves many on behalf of the interests, the interests
of the distribution of meeting, cannot be obtained by
slow speed for the popularity of the market, so in the
way of a battery, appear have a reasonable
opportunity for the development of electrical
technology, also cannot leave China local policy
support and huge capital market to promote.
According to the latest financial statements and
annual summaries of new energy companies,
Xinneng Electric Car company attaches great
importance to the research and development of core
technologies. Research and development costs
account for a large proportion of sales revenue.
Companies with a high proportion of the electric car
market will devote more resources to technology
research and development.
Strengthen the infrastructure construction of
charging supporting facilities.
The urban planning department of the Chinese
government needs to actively carry out urban
planning in line with the needs of The Times.
Reasonable planning should be carried out for
supporting municipal facilities based on urban
foundations such as urban changing stations,
charging piles, and public parking lots, to improve
the popularity rate of supporting facilities for new
energy trams in inland cities. Starting from the
government's upper-level design, public charging
facilities should be improved to improve more
convenient charging services for the people.
According to the current world economic situation,
the Chinese government can upgrade and construct
supporting facilities in batches according to the needs
of different regions for supporting electric cars,
strengthening cooperation with social capital, and
encouraging more private capital to participate in
supporting infrastructure construction of new energy
with policy support.

Strengthen the construction of the power
replacement stations.
The battery technology of new energy trams has
always been a social problem, and it cannot make a
great breakthrough in a short time. Therefore, the
core problems of battery life and charging, such as
too long charging time, uneven distribution of
charging piles, few charging Spaces, and the
contradiction between the parking space occupied by
fuel cars, are difficult to be fundamentally changed in
a short time. The construction of the replace power
station can meet the demand for rapid charging of
most trams in a short period of time. The advantages
are as follows;
[1]. The power replacement mode realizes the
separation of electric power and is conducive
to reducing the cost of car purchase. With the
reduction of subsidies for new energy vehicles
by the Chinese government, the price of new
energy vehicles at the same level is higher than
that of fuel vehicles at the same level, relative
to fuel vehicles with more mature technology
and industrial chain. Under the power
replacement mode, users can rent the power
battery, which greatly reduces the cost of
buying a car [39].
[2]. The consumption time of battery
replenishment is short. Taking the current
power replacement station in Beijing, China as
an example, EV can complete battery
replacement in 2 minutes. Compared with the
charging demand of 6-8 hours for slow
charging and 0.5-1 hours for fast charging, the
power replacement station has a better
performance in time saving.
[3]. It is conducive to the battery safety and service
life extension of new energy batteries. The
batteries of the power station are monitored,
managed and maintained by the battery
company, so that the batteries of EV can be
more professionally maintained and more
professional and reasonable.
[4]. It can solve the voltage load requirements of
many old residential areas in China, so that
these residents can get effective power
supplement. To solve China's livelihood
problems [40].
6.2 Key Research Limitations
The promotion and development of new energy trams
will inevitably face some social and moral problems.
For example, while new energy trams provide high-
quality services, personal information and data will
also be collected by new energy trams, and personal
privacy security will be ensured: The security
protection of personal data such as a home address,
common routes, and emergency contact information
of family members, as well as the huge supporting
industrial chain of fuel vehicles and corresponding
social work positions in China, because most of the
positions of new energy trams rely on big data
analysis and artificial intelligence services [41]. This
has led to a significant reduction in the number of
jobs available for employment compared to those
available for conventional fuel vehicles, and the
social employment rate is also part of the ethical
considerations.
The data in this paper are mainly secondary, and
the data sources are mostly official data statements:
Ministry of Communications of China, Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology of China,
Although the data of the National Bureau of
Statistics, China Passenger Car Industry Association,
and the annual statements of enterprises are highly
credible and credible, the data are delayed to a certain
extent, and the optimal solution cannot be obtained
according to the latest national conditions.
As a developing country, China's city
development is not balanced, charging infrastructure
of the city construction and reconstruction is
significant fiscal spending, for the local government's
budget is a great challenge, in the prophase of in
power station built huge investment, need the
financial support of local government and private
capital to cooperate, otherwise only on unilateral
fastidious cannot meet the needs of urban planning
Design needs, as well as the needs of residents to
change electricity [42].
Different brands of new energy car battery design
inspiration are not the same, also contributed to
different specifications and installation guidelines, no
uniform industry standard on the market at present,
has led to the part in power station need only provide
models as the place of the battery, there is no
guarantee that all the models can enjoy the advantage
of the benefits in the power station. The battery
model reserve of the electrical charging station needs
to conduct big data analysis and demonstration
according to the reserve quantity of new energy trams
in different regions, to obtain the ideal distribution
quantity and meet the demand of the local market.
Therefore, the calculation volume of these data is
large, the data changes quickly, and the matching
degree of the market is low. In terms of the later
operation cost, the electrical charging station needs
higher technical services to maintain, maintain and
upgrade the equipment during operation.

The challenges faced by the power replacement
station are the large capital investment needed in the
early stage, the constantly changing market matching
degree, the difficulty to unify the battery standard,
and the low market compatibility, it can only solve
most owners' charging demands. There will be less
room for small businesses and less enthusiasm for
research and development. Therefore, The
establishment of the power replacement station has
advantages and disadvantages, which should be
decided by combining with the actual development
situation of local electric vehicles.
