Cui Dongshu, Secretary-General of the Passenger Car Market Information Linkage Committee, penned an article noting that December's retail market for new energy vehicles (NEVs) is poised for robust performance. With the impending end - of - year expiration of the current vehicle purchase tax exemption policy and the looming 5 - percentage - point increase in the vehicle purchase tax next year, consumers' year - end vehicle - buying enthusiasm has surged, with a heightened focus on vehicle delivery timelines. The purchase tax subsidies rolled out by automakers are essentially short - term, end - of - year strategies that are hard to maintain in the long run.

Spurred by this buying frenzy, the long waiting lists for popular models have drawn more attention to moderately selling ones. This has further fueled the fervor in the auto market and is driving sustained growth in NEV sales.

Moreover, overseas sales are yielding substantial profits, with export growth surpassing expectations. Independent NEV brands have gained increased recognition in overseas markets. Their marketing networks are expanding continuously, and some overseas markets have shown remarkable performance.

In the meantime, the new parallel export policy is on the verge of implementation. This year has witnessed a surge in enthusiasm for parallel exports of 0 - kilometer used cars, creating a stark contrast with the sluggish parallel import market.
