Electric Vehicles in China 2019-2029

The important new IDTechEx report, "Electric Vehicles in China 2019-2029" finds that the market penetration in China of electric buses is more impressive than electric cars. However, it cautions that, even here, two or more diesel buses are still made for every electric one in China. There has never been support to electrify one million polluting old school buses but IDTechEx predicts when their up front price in electric form meets conventional and sales take off. The statement that China has 400,000 large pure electric buses and that is 99% of the number in the world is true but not the whole story. Performance comparisons, battery specifications and suppliers - it is all summarised in information-packed pages.

 

Understand why electric bus exports but not car or truck exports are impressive but e-trucks will become a huge business in China. Learn how Chinese companies, often with Chinese government backing are continuing to buy brands, routes to market and advanced technology. Some new Chinese technologies are impressive but it eagerly seeks others. Which? The new data IDTechEx has gathered, using its multi-lingual PhD level analysts, make it optimistic about solar road and drone, hub motor and supercapacitor vehicle leadership for example. Discover which type of EV will sell from China at three times the volume of electric bikes.

 

China is catching up in robot shuttles and software-controlled fleets and updates. It needs to do better in power electronic, high energy density supercapacitors, structural electronics and other identified aspects. With EV batteries becoming smaller soon due to top up charging at speed and other innovations, some Chinese gigafactories may become stranded assets. When? Understand how Chinese EV components will succeed hugely abroad and damage the business of traditional western Tier One suppliers insufficiently investing in R&D.

Chapter 4 is more detailed on the large activity in buses and, in future, trucks and their batteries, the largest cost for now. Here you find costing and powertrain evolution. Learn of the fuel cell vehicle strategy and initiatives and supercapacitor buses and trucks eliminating traction batteries. See negligence and innovation with buses and trucks.
