Some bus experts points out that China's new energy vehicle industry is still facing a host of challenges, including over reliance on the import of some key spare parts, low integration rate, high production costs, short life-expectancies of power batteries, low adaptability, low energy utilization rate and short continuous driving capacity. They also feel encouraged by Yutong's new breakthroughs made in three key areas in the energy-saving and new energy bus sector thank to the bus maker's relentless efforts in developing new technologies in the past decade. They note that the remarkable progress made by Yutong will further push the popularization of electric, hybrid and plug-in buses.
According to Yutong, its new technological achievements made in 2015 have been introduced to the whole spectrum of its energy-saving and new energy bus products, ranging from six-meter to 18-meter in length. Having won 112 product announcements, Yutong is now well positioned to meet bus operators' specific demands for urban public transportation, airport passenger transportation, business reception, and a number of other market segments. As of October 2015, Yutong sold 23,796 units energy-saving and new energy buses, all of which help bus operators save oil by 93 million liters and cut gas consumption by 200 million Nm3 each year. In other words, these eco-friendly vehicles help Yutong's customers save fuel costs by 1.4 billion RMB, help cut carbon emissions by 640,000 tons and PM2.5 by 790,000 tons each year.
