Recently, the ministry of finance, the state administration of taxation and the ministry of industry and information technology jointly issued a notice on preferential tax policies for the use of new energy vehicles, ships and ships (hereinafter referred to as the notice).

"Notice" pointed out that the transport of energy saving, emissions below 1.6 liters (1.6 liters) of the gasification of gasoline and diesel passenger cars (including the plug-in hybrid passenger cars and dual fuel vehicle) at a car; Pure electric commercial vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles and fuel-cell commercial vehicles using new energy sources are exempt from vehicle and ship taxes.

It is understood that in 2012, our country has introduced the holidays can cars and new energy automobile vehicle tax preferential policies, the forward again, because a car before 2013 is not carried out in accordance with the capacity to distinguish, but is classified by household cars and passenger cars, motorcycles, etc. For example, large passenger cars with more than or equal to 20 passengers are taxed at 540 yuan per year. Medium - sized buses with more than 9 passengers and less than 20 passengers are taxed at 480 yuan per year. Small passenger cars with less than or equal to 9 passengers are subject to annual vehicle and vessel tax of 360 yuan. After the introduction of the new standard of vehicle and vessel tax in 2013, China's vehicle and vessel tax is levied according to the vehicle displacement. The larger the displacement, the larger the tax amount will be. For example, 60 yuan to 360 yuan for 1.0 liters or less, 300 yuan to 540 yuan for 1.0 liters or more, 3,600 yuan to 5,400 yuan for 4.0 liters or more.

By the end of last year, China had more than 120,000 new energy vehicles, according to the data. According to the city's 1.0-1.6 litre (including) vehicle and vessel tax of 420 yuan a year, the state will exempt 50.4 million yuan of vehicle and vessel tax each year for the use of new energy vehicles. According to the development plan of the energy saving and new energy vehicle industry released by the state council, by 2020, the total production and sales of pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles will exceed 5 million. Each year, the state will exempt 2.1 billion yuan from vehicle and ship taxes. Industry evaluation, this is the state of the automobile market release further environmental signal, on the one hand, encourage consumers to buy more new energy vehicles, low energy consumption and on the other hand is also pushing car companies more fuel-efficient cars and new energy vehicle production a positive move.

However, despite the increasing number of new energy vehicles on the market, many consumers still lack confidence in the application prospect of new energy vehicles. According to data released by the Beijing car index control management office, all of 2014, the promotion of new energy vehicles 8050 vehicles in Beijing, did not meet personal demonstration application of new energy index (10000). According to the analysis of industry insiders, the main reason is that the promotion of new energy vehicles still faces many problems such as insufficient charging facilities, insufficient battery range, high price and high failure rate. Some places have built charging facilities that are not efficient enough to run properly. Some pilot cities do not have enough enthusiasm and efforts to promote new energy vehicles.

Development of new energy vehicles shows gratifying situation, but there is a big gap between overall level to realizing large scale commercial application, from the truly international competitiveness is still a long way to go, obviously lagging behind the industry development, especially the charging infrastructure construction has become the popularization and application of the new energy vehicles "bottleneck", must be resolved as soon as possible.

China has also spared no effort in promoting new energy vehicles, as can be seen from the "notice on fiscal support policies for the promotion and application of new energy vehicles in 2016-2020" released in April this year. According to the circular, the central government will subsidize the purchase of new energy vehicles and implement the GSP system. This is great news for consumers and car manufacturers alike. The next step is to further expand the promotion of new energy vehicles and realize the leapfrog development of new energy vehicles. It will be a key factor to solve various problems faced by new energy vehicles.
