China: Data on the fastest-growing market for new energy vehicles shows that China is still the market with the largest growth rate and the largest total. Despite a slight decline in sales in June, sales of pure electric vehicles in China exceeded 260,000 in the first half of this year. Compared with the same period last year, sales in the first half of this year have just doubled, with an increase of 132,000 vehicles. In China, plug-in hybrid vehicles are obviously not as popular as pure electric vehicles, but dealers still sold 95,000 plug-in hybrid vehicles in the first half of 2018, compared to 31,500 in the same period last year. PwC experts believe that electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles will continue to grow for a long time in the future. If we want to further promote this kind of positive development, we cannot just increase research and development costs. It is also necessary to increase factory investment. 'German and European automakers are preparing to introduce a large number of high-end electric vehicles in the next twelve months', the consultant analyzed. In addition, large Chinese battery manufacturers are also expanding globally. For example, the CATL is about to build factories in Thuringia and southern Europe.

'He believes that from this phenomenon, it can be inferred that international investors have full confidence in the European electric vehicle market. We believe that the electric vehicle market has matured. A survey that analyzes the sales of electric vehicles worldwide shows that the sales of electric vehicles in Germany have increased by two-thirds. As of the end of June, Germany has issued 17,234 pure electric vehicle licenses, compared with 9,821 in the same period last year. Felix Kuhnert, head of the global automotive industry at PricewaterhouseCoopers, said:'In the automotive industry, growth rates of more than 50% are rare. 'Kunath suggested that car manufacturers and their distribution agencies should pay attention to this situation. He believes that the time for German car companies to introduce advanced electric vehicles seems ripe. In the first half of this year, German distributors sold a total of 16,683 hybrid vehicles, compared with 12264 in the same period last year, a growth rate of about one-third. Analysts said, 'Increases in this market are relatively small, mainly because hybrid vehicles were introduced to Germany earlier and the market share has been relatively high. 'PwC's automotive experts believe that the preference for electric vehicles tends to favor small cars in the mid-range price range, and models with better sales include Renault Zoe and Volkswagen I.D.-Familie. Plug-in hybrid cars dominate the premium car market. In the premium car market, plug-in hybrid cars have a high market share. Relevant data shows that 70% of the Porsche Cayenne sold are plug-in hybrids. Of Daimler's S series sales, 50% are plug-in hybrids. In the premium car market, plug-in hybrids are gradually replacing diesel vehicles. In the first half of this year, the sales of plug-in hybrid vehicles increased by 15,000 over the same period last year. Since the Tesla Model 3 entered the market, the sales of electric vehicles in the United States have experienced a structural increase, but the increase is still far below the actual demand. In the first half of this year, the sales of pure electric vehicles in the United States were 63,426. Christoph Stürmer believes that:'The small economic increment and low gasoline price cause problems for traditional hybrid vehicles. At the same time, due to the different performance of plug-in hybrid vehicles and pure electric vehicles, there is a problem. Separate markets.
