Electric vehicles by Dr. Bryn Walton Dr. Jamie Hamilton, Genevieve Alberts, Saskia Fullerton Smith, Edward Day James Ringrow China China continues to dominate the EV market, accounting for half of all vehicle sales Sales in the second half of 2019 turned out lower than previously expected after some subsidies available to Chinese consumers were halved. This considerably eroded the consumer demand for EV's, and total yearly sales dropped: PHEV sales fell by 9 per cent and BEV sules fell to a 17 per cent growth rate from 2018 to 2019. On a positive note, a slowdown in the sales of ICE vehicles in the region means that the EV market share in China actually increased China's slowdown in the second half of 2019 affected global EV sales figures, but neither the slashed subsidies nor the impact of COVID-19 should impact EV sales significantly in the long term. Chinese authorities announced they would refrain from more subsidy cuts in 2020. Meanwhile, other incentives (for example, number-plate privileges in Tier a cities) remain, investment is being made in China's charging infrastructure and there is a continued focus on encouraging Chinese manufacturers to produce and market EVs. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and lockclown measures in place, China saw a 45 per cent decline in passenger car sales in Q1 2020. EV sales fell at a faster rate than the total market (by 56 per cent), as consumers stayed home and showrooms dosed their doors." But the rate of recovery has been swift. By had with Sen As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures in place, China saw a 45 per cent decline in passenger car sales in Q1 2020." EV sales fell at a faster rate than the total market (loy 56 per cent), as consumers stayed home and showrooms closed their doors. But the rate of recovery has been swift. By March 2020, Chinese factories had recovered to achieve a production rate of 75 per cent, with 86 per cent of employees returning to work. By April 2020, production had basically been restored to pre-pandemie levels. Although sales have remained depressed in certain Chinese provinces, recovery has been accelerated by pent-up demand, favourable policies put in place by Chinese authorities and the ability to purchase cars online; total sales actually reflected year-on-year growth in April. This brings hope for a 'V-shaped recovery in China, with many individual EV manufacturers already benefitting from the release of new models.4 Electric vehicles by Dr. Bryn Walton. Dr. Jamie Hamilton Genevieve Alberts, Saskia leto Smith, Edward Day James ingrow United States After an encouraging start to 2019, falling fuel prices in the United States (a market that already enjoys comparatively cheap private transportation) led to a disappointing second half of the year for EV sales. The United States EV market is almost singlehandedly being carried by the access of the Tesla Model 3 - alone responsible for almost half of all EV sales, As in Europe and China, United States car sales fell sharply in the first three months of 2020 as the pandemic took a toll on demand; job losses increased and large swathes of the population were ordered to stay home. The recovery in EV sales is likely to be slower in the United States than in other major regions, as manufacturers delay the launch of new cars and consumers take advantage of low oil prices Rest of the world The world outside Europe, China and the United States is logging behind in terms of EV sales, for various reasons: a lack of government commitment to EVs, insufficient or unstritable charging infrastructure, unavailability of EVs and cultural differences regarding mobility models. For example, Japan is a major global car market, but new car sales are dominated by domestic OEMs that have not yet developed the same range of EVs as their European and Chinese competitors. Meanwhile, India, like many markets, is dominated by mass- and low-cost mobility models: an area that OEMs haven't been able to penetrate so far, because of EVs comparative higher price
