As 2024 is approaching, the latest "Shanghai Implementation Measures for Encouraging the Purchase and Use of New Energy Vehicles" has been officially finalized. After explaining the "Implementation Measures" in detail, Brother Xun found that on the basis of stabilizing the consumption of new energy vehicles, Shanghai has shown a trend of "tightening" green licenses, and the requirements for applying for special license plates for new energy vehicles have increased.
Since Shanghai is a key area for the vigorous development of new energy vehicles in China, the new policy released this time has a certain guiding role. You might as well follow Brother Xunlun’s perspective and learn more about the latest developments in domestic new energy vehicles.
encourages "oil-for-electricity", Shanghai releases the latest signal!
First of all, you can pay attention to the three major changes in the "Shanghai Implementation Measures for Encouraging the Purchase and Use of New Energy Vehicles", including:
1. Those who come to Shanghai with a "Shanghai Residence Permit" are required to "have been in this city 36 months before the date of application." The city continues to pay social insurance or personal income tax." Compared with the previous "accumulated payment of social insurance or personal income tax for 12 months within 24 months", the requirement is upgraded.
2. The applicant has neither “new energy vehicles registered using the city’s special license plate quotas” nor “non-commercial passenger vehicle quota certificates”, nor “motor vehicles (excluding motorcycles) registered using the non-commercial passenger vehicle quotas”. car)". It can be understood that only when you have no fuel vehicle or new energy vehicle in your name can you apply for a new energy vehicle license.
3. When an unit user applies for a new energy vehicle license, there is a new requirement that "the number of employees who have paid social insurance in this city exceeds 5, or the unit has paid taxes continuously in this city one year before the date of application."
It is not difficult to see that due to the increased application requirements for special license plates for new energy vehicles, some consumers will not be able to apply for special license plates for new energy vehicles starting from January 2024. This has also led to a wave of new energy vehicle purchases in Shanghai starting this weekend. According to Brother Xunlun, the current popularity of SAIC Volkswagen ID.3, Tesla Model 3 and other models in Shanghai may be strongly related to the new policy.
Brother Xunlun was informed that corresponding policies can be obtained for pure electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles (including imported new energy vehicles) that have been included in the "Announcement of Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and Products" or other relevant national vehicle models catalogs and are used in Shanghai. support.
In summary, the latest "Implementation Measures" continue to encourage individuals to purchase new energy vehicles, and at the same time encourage individuals to replace fuel vehicles with new energy vehicles. It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time that Shanghai has tightened the issuance of "green cards". Starting from January 1, 2023, special license plates will no longer be issued for the purchase of plug-in hybrid models in Shanghai, followed by major changes in the local new energy vehicle market.
Policy changes are big, new energy vehicles are swaying with the wind
As we all know, new energy vehicles rely on strong policy support in the early stages of development, and their market share gradually increases, achieving overtaking in corners. However, with the continuous improvement of the new energy vehicle industry chain and the improvement of the reputation of new energy vehicle users, new energy vehicles have changed from policy-oriented to market-oriented, and the purchase rate of individual users has increased significantly.
However, for some areas with restrictions on driving, purchasing, and licensing, relevant policies still have a great influence, and can even influence the market direction of new energy vehicles. Relevant data shows that in December 2022, the sales volume of new energy vehicles in Shanghai was approximately 58,300 units, of which the penetration rate of plug-in hybrid models reached 43.9%. However, after the implementation of the new policy, the penetration rate of plug-in hybrid models in Shanghai will be less than 10% in 2023. The huge difference mainly comes from policy changes.
In other words, although plug-in hybrid cars can be charged and refueled, which are more convenient for daily use than pure electric models, and they also have preferential policies of exempting purchase taxes, but for cities like Shanghai, which cannot directly "give" a green card In terms of sales, the impact on terminal sales is very obvious.
At the end of the year, the production and sales of new energy vehicles both exceeded 100.
The sales performance of new energy vehicles is affected by many factors. In addition to policies, the sincerity of car companies is also very important. The ongoing price war this year has a greater stimulating effect on terminal sales. Coupled with the fact that the end of the year is approaching and the traditional car buying season has entered, the sales performance of new energy vehicles has also continued to rise. The latest data shows that in November this year, my country's monthly production and sales of new energy vehicles exceeded one million vehicles for the first time, reaching 1.074 million and 1.026 million vehicles.
With many car companies lowering the prices of their best-selling models, it is believed that car sales will rise further in December. For example, the BYD Song L, which was previously priced at 220,000 yuan in pre-sale, is officially priced at 189,800 yuan, a significant reduction of 30,000 yuan. This approach is not common in the automotive industry. This also shows that BYD is facing considerable pressure in its sprint to achieve annual sales of 3 million vehicles.
In addition, the new Xpeng G9, which has been on the market for less than 3 months, has been reduced in price again, with a limited-time discount of up to 19,000 yuan, as well as an electricity card worth 8,000 yuan and optional benefits worth 11,000 yuan. In addition, Xpeng G6 and Xpeng P7 have also provided car purchase discounts. Brother Zhulu predicts that Xpeng Motors will boost sales for the end of the year and use profits to exchange for the market.
According to incomplete statistics, BYD, Changan Automobile, Nezha Automobile, etc. have all had relevant price reduction and promotion policies since December, and the models involved are mostly new energy vehicles. If you plan to buy a car at the end of the year, you might as well learn about the latest market conditions.
It can be seen from the latest car purchasing trends of consumers that new energy vehicles are increasingly favored by consumers because of their significant advantages in reducing vehicle costs. Brother Xunluo predicts that new energy vehicles will dominate the market for a long time. Even if policy support is reduced, the market itself has enough internal driving force to allow new energy vehicles to continue to flourish.
