Chinese Electric Vehicle Market Recorded High Sales Figures in 2015
17. December 2015The Chinese news agency Xinhua published an article saying that in 2015 more electric vehicles have been sold in the P.R. China than in the US.
The “China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM)” estimates the number of sold vehicles was 220,000 to 250,000. If this trend continues China will be the best-selling country for electric vehicles, which until now has been the United States. Globally sales of electric vehicles is estimated to exceed 600,000 vehicles per year soon.
The chairman of the “China Association of Automobile Manufacturers” pointed out that despite the rapid development of sales, China should focus on quality rather than quantity while developing this industrial sector. Due to tax incentives and government subsidies the popularity of electric vehicles in China has dramatically increased within the last two years.
With increased demand more electric vehicle components will be required to get CCC certified in the future. Previously we informed you about new standards for the CCC certification of cables that are used in charging systems for electric vehicles. Many components of electric vehicles and conventional vehicles need CCC certification prior to being imported into China.
