Are New Energy Vehicles Exempt from Traffic Restrictions?

[ODaniela]

New energy vehicles are exempt from traffic restrictions. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the Ministry of Commerce jointly issued an implementation plan to promote the upgrading of key consumer goods and facilitate the recycling of resources, proposing that local governments must not impose traffic restrictions or purchase limitations on new energy vehicles, and those already in place should be abolished. New energy vehicles refer to three types of vehicles: pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles. Taking pure electric vehicles as an example, they are vehicles powered solely by rechargeable batteries and driven by electric motors. Currently, the fuel type registered by the public security traffic management department during vehicle registration is 'electricity'.
