New energy vehicles were once the new trend of world development, but now Europe and the United States have given up new energy vehicles, back to the old road of oil vehicles, what is the reason for this, if the future world trend is still the main development trend of automobiles, Chinese car companies have increased investment in the field of new energy vehicles, is it wrong to bet on the treasure?
In fact, when European and American car companies want to give up the development of new energy vehicles, but witness the victory of China's electric vehicle development, many netizens question, because foreign countries have given up new energy vehicles and no longer increase investment, but to invest in the development of oil vehicles, why are Chinese still saying that new energy car companies will win?
Europe and the United States give up new energy vehicles, because their technology and development scale can not be compared with Chinese car companies, voluntary withdrawal from the competition does not mean that new energy vehicles are not the trend of development, but because of the regression of the industrial development of European and American car companies, because the comprehensive strength of European and American car companies in the field of new energy, is much more backward than China.
Even Apple in the United States, as the world's technology giant, is still not able to achieve ranking results in any field, such as Apple's investment in the car industry, abundant funds and talent from all parties, want to make the Apple car the most advanced in the world, no need for manual driving of high-tech vehicles.
This idea and conception has indeed aroused heated discussions around the world and the expectations of consumers, but the real driverless vehicle, when driving in complex road conditions, can not be consistent with the original intention of the designer, and when the unmanned vehicle is restricted to use too many conditions, it has become a special trouble from the initial convenience for consumers.
Therefore, even if the vision is ambitious and the investment is huge, in the face of real research and development problems, it still cannot support Apple's advantages in the field of car manufacturing, which can be seen that the technology industry has a specialty, Chinese car companies have been deeply engaged in the field of new energy for many years, and have achieved the core competitiveness in the world.
When European and American car companies found that Chinese companies had become strong competitors in the field of new energy, whether it was technology, talents, raw materials, or production and supply capacity, Europe and the United States had to retreat, because when the competition could not be achieved, they could only turn to the development of fuel vehicles.
Car companies like Europe and the United States also consider the problem of face, for example, Apple has put the big words to the world, we all know that to create the world's most advanced driverless vehicles, so since the research and development has been delayed to launch results, I have to find an excuse to prevaricate, and now we have to postpone the delivery of vehicles to 2028, as for 4 years later, whether Apple can launch unmanned vehicles that adapt to complex road conditions, then then talk about it, anyway, there are still a few years to find a way.
Besides, maybe in a few years, other brands of car companies may be one step ahead of Apple to achieve the development of this kind of car?
Just like Tesla in the United States, it once wanted to study the hyperloop running 1,000 kilometers per hour, but the United States has not made substantial progress in research and development, and a few years later, China has successfully built a super high-speed train that runs at a speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour, and has also carried out tests on the actual road section. In the same way, Apple seems to be waiting for the same opportunity, and it is better to research it by itself, and if it can't be researched, homogeneous competing products have appeared, and then make plans depending on the situation.
Apple has temporarily stopped manufacturing cars, Mercedes-Benz has also abandoned the all-electric vehicle development plan, and the focus of developing products has returned to fuel vehicles, Mercedes-Benz said that it has fully turned to fuel vehicles and abandoned electric vehicles because it has found that the acceptance of Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles is far lower than market expectations.
Therefore, in the next 10 years, Mercedes-Benz will develop new technologies and product lines, and still focus on the type of fuel vehicles, which is equivalent to returning to the old business of Mercedes-Benz cars.
So why can't the European market, which is obviously the birthplace of automobiles and has a good market sales base, better promote the development of electric vehicles? Even hybrid vehicles are not as well accepted in Europe as gasoline vehicles, and even in comparison, the share is very different.
Many consumers are still fresh in their minds, the European market has been shouting for several years, to 2030, to fully promote the penetration rate of new energy vehicles, gradually phase out fuel vehicles for carbon neutrality and environmental protection, for various reasons and even require all investment, many countries have to gradually reduce the use of fuel vehicles, the result is not the past few years, and now it has completely changed, saying that new energy technology garbage.
In fact, in the final analysis, there is no other reason, that is, because of the rapid rise of China's auto industry, the cumulative output of power and energy storage batteries in China in 2023 will be 700GWh, a year-on-year increase of 519%, and since the epidemic, China's automobile exports have been on the rise.
Now every 100 new energy vehicles sold in the world, more than 60 of them are made in China, and China has become the dominant owner of the whole industry chain in the field of new energy vehicles. Not only can we build automobiles, but we can also build new energy batteries with superior performance.
Europe's opposition to new energy vehicles is, to put it bluntly, an opposition to China's huge market competitiveness. Europe can't compete at all, and if it can't fight, it will retreat and run away, so this is the essential reason why Europe has given up new energy vehicles.
