Jointly organized by China EV100 and Henan Provincial Government, the forum this year is themed with “Safety and Innovation Driven Development”. By focusing on how to improve the safety standards and quality standards of electric vehicles, the forum is aiming at further raising public awareness of the environmental benefits brought by electric vehicles and pushing forward the emerging industry to a new historical level. Over 600 participants from governments, research institutions and enterprises attended the forum.
Tang Yuxiang, President of Yutong Group, delivered a keynote speech at the forum, giving all audience a panoramic view of the development of China’s electric vehicle industry. According to Tang, Yutong started researching and developing electric vehicles in 1999. Thanks to the continued supports from the state and provincial governments, Yutong has been strengthening its competitiveness in this emerging field in the global market. In the future, Yutong will focus on cutting the body weights of electric vehicles, realizing a higher level of their intelligence, and improving manufacturing technologies.

To further upgrade China’s automobile industry, push forward its transition and help it realize an annual production volume of five million units by 2020, Yutong will continue to strengthen its efforts and increase its investments in electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. Considering the fuel cell vehicles, Tang says China still lags far behind some other countries in the world. Thus, more efforts and investments are needed in this field so as to make new breakthroughs in some key technologies. Tang also says that China’s electric vehicle industry is still at its initial stage of development. Despite all the challenges, the industry is also blessed with many opportunities. “Only by seeking an innovative development road can the industry realize sound development and further upgrading”, says Tang.
