Measures Taken to Spur Automobile Sales

The Ministry of Commerce and 16 other government departments have come up with a number of measures, including support for the purchase of new energy and second-hand vehicles, to invigorate automobile circulation and boost auto consumption in China.

In support of the purchase of new energy vehicles, the sales and use of them in rural areas are greatly encouraged, while charging pile enterprises are being motivated to reduce service fee charges.

In addition, efforts will be made to further bolster the used car market. A combination of economic and technological means will be adopted to promote the recycling of scrapped vehicles, and trade-in of old vehicles for new ones.
