Notably, Chinese new energy passenger vehicles took up 47% of the global deliveries to 576,000 units. Moreover, almost all NEV technology routes have been put into practice in China. According to the statistics, China vehicle market posted a growth of 68%, while the global average growth rate was 60% in 2017.

Globally, American NEV market saw slow growth, while Japanese and Korean NEV market enjoyed robust sales growth. And European also posted NEV sales growth rate of around 50%.
