Coordinates Beijing, our company has more than a dozen foreigners, the United States, Canada, Germany, South Africa, Australia, Russia and so on. Most of them take the bus and squeeze the subway to work, one is an athlete, riding a mountain bike to work, and there is a place to live that is not too far from the unit, so they simply come to the company by scooter.

Later, a South African foreigner saw that several Chinese colleagues in the company rode a "small electric donkey" to commute every day, which was particularly convenient and fast, so he got a second-hand electric car to ride to work. Wow, foreigners feel too good. As a result, it didn't take long for all the company's foreign colleagues to have an electric car. When they ride the "little electric donkey", they don't want to change to other means of transportation, which is simply too convenient. Save time, don't get stuck in traffic, and enjoy the thrill of speed.

Why you can't see riding electric vehicles in developed countries, maybe it's because electric vehicles are not promoted in developed countries, and they are high. For example, the 3,000 yuan Yadea electric car in China started at $3,000 in the United States, and it was sold out as soon as it was launched. The domestic Huaihai agricultural electric tricycle is 5,000 yuan in China, and it is almost as high as 15,000 yuan in Russia, and it is still difficult to find a car. Another example is the domestic Maverick electric car in Germany, which starts at thousands of euros and is still very popular.

I have a classmate who settled in France, she said that in France, you can buy an ordinary bicycle for 200 euros, an electric mountain bike is estimated at 1500 euros, and an electric car like a domestic sheep costs more than 2,000 euros.

I have a friend who lives in Columbia, and he said that he has recently started selling battery cars, and shared bicycles have also begun to be available, and it is estimated that there are Chinese people entering the game. The country is saturated, and two-wheeled electric vehicle manufacturers are now selling abroad, and many factories are recruiting foreign trade salesmen.

My cousin said that he also wanted to get a battery car to go to Canada for his children, but when I thought about it, they could ride it for four or five months, and the rest of the time was either ice and snow or cold, and as soon as I went out, it was ten or twenty kilometers to start. The price of oil is equivalent to more than one of us, and the car is equivalent to our thirty or forty thousand, so why bother with an electric donkey?

Douyin has an American blogger named Alpaca Brother, he does Haitao Container Transportation, that is, the American buyer bought something in **, and the address was filled in the alpaca brother's domestic delivery address, and then it was transported to the United States, and then distributed and distributed by Alpaca Brother to the end customer. He has bought a domestically produced electric triple jumper, a few thousand RMB, which can be exchanged for a unit in US dollars at a similar price in the United States. In addition to the electric three jumpers, there are also electric small excavators, which are deeply loved by Americans.

A few years ago, an American customer came to visit our company and saw many office workers in the city commuting to work riding small electric donkeys, and he liked it very much. We have to give him the whole machine and find a way to ship it to the United States. No way, once when we shipped to this customer, we got a calf, together with the charger, into a large wooden box, stuffed with products from our factory, and the customs declaration was also in accordance with our products, fortunately the customs did not find it.

I have a colleague who has immigrated to Sweden. Before leaving China, buy a Maverick electric car and ship it to Sweden in a wooden box for personal use. I asked her what to do if it broke down in Sweden and who could fix itShe replied: I will buy a high-end one in China, more than 5,000 yuan, and even if I ship it over, add 5,000 yuan of freight, tariffs and miscellaneous fees, adding up to 10,000 yuan. The configuration of Sweden is not as good as that of this Maverick is more than 20,000, and the same configuration is not available. With such a big difference, even if it is broken, it is worth it.

I remember when I was a child, my country was called the "Kingdom of Bicycles". Bicycles are a means of transportation for ordinary people. But now, it feels like electric cars are about to become a means of transportation for every household.

Why are electric vehicles so popular in China?The national situation is here, before there was no electric car when the people drove motorcycles without a license, and they couldn't control it, at that time, motorcycles were everywhere, the speed was fast, and it was easy to have serious traffic accidents, so motorcycles were banned, and then electric cars came out, and those who drove motorcycles without a license rode electric vehicles, for most people, motorcycles Electric vehicles are not important, they need an unconstrained means of travel, no need to take a driver's license, no insurance. There is no scrapping life, no violations, so electric vehicles cater to these functions perfectly, and it is easy to introduce policies, but it is difficult to implement.
