Why is it difficult to apply for car-making qualification

Why it's hard to apply for car-making qualification is introduced as follows:

Historical reasons: before 2017, a large number of new energy vehicle brands emerged, and it is also after 2017 that qualification licenses for new energy vehicles became increasingly difficult to obtain.

Qualification tightening: among new energy vehicle makers, there are cases such as PPT car-making to cheat financing subsidies.

Serious overcapacity: in 2017, the sales of new energy vehicles finished at 777,000 units, and this number, compared with the number of new energy vehicle enterprises at that time, there was already a rather serious overcapacity situation.

Increased difficulty in applying for qualifications for new car-making enterprises

This time, the National Development and Reform Commission, while decentralizing local governments, has also put forward very strict requirements for local governments in terms of access standards for entering and investing in the automobile industry, especially in terms of the management of the investment projects of new pure electric vehicle enterprises, which requires a high threshold for entry.

Such as the fourth chapter of Article 12 proposed: the project is located in the province of new energy vehicle ownership ratio should be higher than the national average; charging pile pile car ratio should be higher than the national average; the existing investment projects of the new pure electric vehicle enterprises have been completed and reached production. And the document on the power battery companies put forward a number of "high standard" requirements, and far beyond the current stage of the technical level.

In other words, if a local company's current EV development doesn't meet the standard, then the local government won't be able to approve a new EV project. For many provinces and companies, this "harsh" requirement seals the deal on the road to making cars. As you can see, provinces that are lagging behind in the automotive industry will find it difficult to overtake them in the wave of pure electric vehicles.

The reporter noted that the existing 15 new energy enterprises have been qualified to cover 13 production capacity of relatively high-quality areas, the requirements of regional ownership, but also on the subsequent selection of the site of the enterprise's choice to have a greater impact.
