Chinese Automaker Spotlights Electric Vehicle

Green auto has huge potential market in China. BYD Auto, Dongfeng, Chery, Chang'an and Wanxiang all have made huge investments into electric vehicle research and development.

 

Jia Xinguang, an independent auto analyst says "If they (Chinese automakers) can succeed in the commercialization of electric autos, China will no more count on foreign turbo engine technologies, and also can compete with international rivals on the same stage."  "China should be one of the most potential markets for electric cars," said Toshiaki Otani, general manager of Dongfeng Nissan Passenger Vehicle Co. and Nissan will bring electric autos to China by 2012.

 

Electric vehicle will be an ideal solution as the country seeks to boost sales of fuel-efficient vehicles to protect the environment and cut oil usage. However, the cost, performance and the efficiency to charge batteries still remain a problem for the sales of plug-ins.
