existing technical challenges for electric vehicles-皇冠彩票网址

china energy storage network news: electric vehicles have become an irreversible development trend in the automotive industry. this trend was fully exposed during the shanghai auto show, the world's first a-level auto show in 2023, which was recently held. nearly half of the 27 models exhibited by mercedes benz are new energy vehicles; audi did not bring a gasoline powered car; honda has not exhibited pure fuel vehicles either; the toyota showroom only showcases one pure fuel vehicle

the latest "2023 global electric vehicle outlook" released by the international energy agency also shows that global electric vehicle sales this year will increase by 35% compared to the previous year, reaching 14 million units, and the overall share of the automotive market will increase to 18%.

strive for time, market and innovation - obviously, under the carbon neutrality vision and on the electrified track, global car companies are competing. however, does the rapid growth in sales of electric vehicles mean that gasoline powered vehicles will soon disappear? i'm afraid not.
mercedes benz chairman kang linsong recently stated that in the next 10 years, gasoline and electric vehicles will coexist. many industry insiders also point out that it is inevitable for electric vehicles to replace gasoline vehicles, but gasoline vehicles will not completely disappear. with mature technology and stable quality, fuel powered vehicles still have their value for some consumers and some niche areas.
firstly, from a technical perspective, there are many difficulties that need to be addressed for electric vehicles. multinational car companies such as tesla, daimler, and general motors have integrated battery suppliers, or acquired or formed joint ventures or alliances. this trend of "cross industry cooperation" in the battery industry is enough to demonstrate that whether it is to solve high battery costs or long range capabilities, it is still a huge challenge for electric vehicle production at present.
secondly, as a necessary condition for the development of electric vehicles, related infrastructure such as power plants, power grids, and charging stations still need to be further improved. not long ago, wal mart announced that it would set up a fast charging network for electric vehicles in thousands of wal mart and sam's club stores on the east and west coasts of the united states, and planned to complete this goal by 2030. wal mart is determined to build a service ecosystem for electric vehicles to take advantage of the "dongfeng" trend of electric vehicles. this cross-border operation proves that the expansion space for electric vehicle infrastructure construction is enormous.
once again, if traditional fuel car companies comprehensively layout the production of electric vehicles, it will inevitably bring about "side effects" such as unemployment, and the electrification process of car companies will inevitably encounter setbacks and pressure. ford has stated that compared to the workers required to manufacture cars and trucks powered by internal combustion engines, the number of workers required to manufacture electric vehicles will decrease by 40%.

at present, the electrification of automobiles is advancing at a faster speed and on a wider scale, but it is undeniable that in the next 10 years or even longer, gasoline powered vehicles will continue to keep pace with electric vehicles. while competing for the wave of electrification, meeting diverse, multi-level, and multi-disciplinary needs will become a common goal pursued by global automakers.
