On March 17, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly convened a symposium with enterprises in the new energy vehicle sector. The aim was to outline and assign several pivotal tasks. The symposium emphasized the need to solidify and deepen the outcomes of efforts to standardize the industrial competitive landscape. It highlighted the importance of bolstering price monitoring and conducting thorough cost investigations. Additionally, it proposed the exploration of standardizing financial policies within the automotive industry, regularly addressing online disruptions in the sector, and urging enterprises to honor their commitment to a 60-day payment term.

Concurrently, a fresh wave of high-quality development strategies for crucial industrial chains will be set in motion. These strategies are designed to swiftly address the deficiencies in automotive chips, basic software, and other areas, expand the application scope, and elevate both quality and performance. Furthermore, there is a push to accelerate advancements in autonomous driving technology, refine the pilot procedures for market entry, hasten the creation of pertinent standards, and pave the way for large-scale production.
