Domestically, no exact timeline has been announced for the discontinuation of fuel vehicle sales. The specific timing is still under study, as phasing out fuel vehicles is a significant matter that cannot be implemented hastily. A buffer period is necessary for domestic automakers to transition and allow time for related industries to adapt and conduct R&D. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Learning from Western Countries' Ban Timelines Due to the urgency of environmental protection and low-carbon initiatives, many countries have announced timelines to ban fuel vehicles. Norway has the shortest timeline, set to implement a ban on traditional fuel vehicles by 2025. The Netherlands initially targeted 2025 but later adjusted it to 2030. California, with its independent legislative authority in the U.S., set the ban for 2030, aligning with automotive powerhouses like Germany and populous nations like India. France and the UK have postponed their bans by a decade, targeting 2040 for the prohibition of traditional fuel vehicles, including hybrid vehicles in the UK's case. 2. Some Manufacturers to Begin Banning Fuel Vehicles by 2025 Even though the national timeline remains unannounced, certain domestic manufacturers have already started formulating related development strategies, including Changan, BAIC, and Haima.
