摘要
Last year,the export volume of new energy vehicles(NEV),lithium-ion batteries and photovoltaic products,collectively known as the“new three”in China’s foreign trade,reached 1.06 trillion yuan($146.8 billion),breaking the 1-trillion-yuan($138.5 billion)mark for the first time.However,as the production and sales of China’s electric vehicles(EVs),NEVs powered solely by electricity,continue to hit new highs,the global auto industry seems to be filled with pessimism about the future of EVs,with Apple cancelling a decade-long car-making plan and Mercedes-Benz adjusting its ambitious electrification strategy.Earlier,General Motors and Ford also suspended their electrification plans.
