Car February 10 news, according to foreign media InsideEVs reports, recently, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (European? Cars? Manufacturer? Association) released 20 19 fourth quarter European automobile sales data. The data shows that in the fourth quarter, affected by the EU's carbon dioxide emission regulations, the sales of diesel vehicles decreased by 3.7%, the sales of electric vehicles increased by 865,438+0.3%, and the demand for electric vehicles soared. In addition, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association also expressed concern about the current downward trend of diesel vehicle sales.

According to the latest EU regulations, in 2020, 95% of new cars sold in EU countries need to emit less than 95g/km of carbon dioxide on average. By 202 1, the average carbon dioxide emissions of new cars sold in EU countries will be less than 95g/km. After calculating the sales data, the foreign media InsideEVs found that the current sales data of new energy vehicles may be difficult to meet the strict carbon dioxide emission standards of the European Union.

First, the sales of diesel vehicles continued to decline? The demand for gasoline vehicles continues unabated.

20 19 in the fourth quarter of Europe's new car sales data, the proportion of diesel vehicles hit a record low, only 29.5%, and the sales volume decreased by 3.7% year-on-year. Gasoline vehicles accounted for 57.3%, and sales increased by 1 1.9% year-on-year.

Throughout the whole year of 20 19, 58.9% of new cars in Europe are gasoline vehicles, which is slightly higher than 56.6% in 20 18. The proportion of diesel vehicles dropped significantly, from 35.9% in 20 18 to 30.5% at present.

In the fourth quarter of 2065438+2009, the newly registered diesel vehicles in EU countries decreased by 3.7% year-on-year, and the sales of new vehicles fell below 2 million. Although the overall sales of diesel vehicles in EU countries are declining, there are signs of recovery in some countries. In France and Germany, the largest countries in the European Union, the sales of diesel vehicles increased by 7.3% and 4.3% respectively. In addition, the sales of diesel vehicles in some EU countries are still rising at a double-digit rate. The sales of diesel vehicles in Belgium increased by 17.7%, Slovenia by 18.2%, Hungary by 18.4%, Sweden by 30.5% and Romania by 3 1. 1%.

In the fourth quarter, the sales of gasoline vehicles continued to grow, with a year-on-year increase of 1 1.9%, which was basically the same as that of all new cars. The sales of gasoline vehicles in Central European countries grew rapidly, up 23% year-on-year.

On the other hand, in the 28 countries of the European Union, gasoline sales have increased. It is worth noting that among the five major market countries in the European Union, Italy's gasoline sales increased the fastest, with a year-on-year increase of 20.9%.

Second, the explosive growth of new energy vehicle sales? German sales doubled year-on-year? However, it is still difficult to meet the emission standards.

The overall performance of traditional energy vehicles is average, but the sales of new energy vehicles rose sharply in the fourth quarter.

20 19 in the fourth quarter, the sales volume of new energy vehicles in Europe accounted for 13.2%, among which the sales volume of electric vehicles reached a new high, accounting for 4.4%.

Looking at the annual sales data of new cars, 3. 1% is electric vehicles, which is one percentage point higher than 20 18.

In the fourth quarter, the sales of new energy vehicles in European countries increased significantly. Among them, the rising demand for electric vehicles has become the main reason for the increase in sales of new energy vehicles. In the fourth quarter, the sales volume of electric vehicles increased by 865,438+0.2% year-on-year, of which the sales volume of pure electric vehicles increased by 77.9% and the sales volume of hybrid vehicles increased by 86.4%.

However, among the new cars sold in Europe, hybrid vehicles are still the main source of new energy vehicles. In the fourth quarter, * * * registered 252,000 hybrid new cars, an increase of 69.2% over the same period of 20 18.

In addition to electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, the sales of other new energy vehicles have also increased significantly. Sales of E85 ethanol gasoline vehicles, liquefied petroleum gas vehicles and natural gas (NGV) vehicles are all rising. 20 19 in the fourth quarter, the sales volume of these new energy vehicles reached 59,000, a year-on-year increase of 28%. Italy is the largest customer of this kind of new energy vehicles, with 42,000 newly registered vehicles.

Observing the automobile sales data of five major European countries, the demand for new energy vehicles has greatly increased. Especially in Germany, the sales volume of new energy vehicles increased by 10 1.9% year-on-year in the fourth quarter, and the sales volume doubled.

However, foreign media InsideEVs found that in the fourth quarter of 20 18, the sales volume of electric vehicles in Europe was 86,474. In the same period, the sales volume of new cars in Europe was 65,438+0,865,438+0.8 million, and the sales volume of non-new energy vehicles in Poland in European countries was 85,743, accounting for about 4.8% of the sales volume of new cars in the EU. Therefore, in the fourth quarter of 20 18, European electric vehicle sales accounted for about 4.8%.

In the fourth quarter of 20 19, the sales volume of electric vehicles in Europe was 156805, which increased from 4.8% in the previous year to 7.7%. However, the overall sales volume of new cars in Europe has also increased, reaching 2.034 million.

Therefore, foreign media InsideEVs believes that although the sales of new energy vehicles are growing rapidly, it is still difficult to meet the EU's carbon dioxide emission regulations as far as the current situation is concerned.

Conclusion: Does the EU emission standard promote the popularization of new energy vehicles? Change the way of travel in the future

In the data of new car sales in Europe, the sales volume and proportion of electric vehicles are increasing substantially. It can be predicted that the demand for electric vehicles will further increase after the EU formally implements carbon emission standards in 2020. In addition, more car companies in Europe are developing electric vehicles, which also provides consumers with more choices.

In recent years, in addition to the EU countries, other countries are constantly following suit. I believe that stricter environmental standards will make our living environment better and better. At the same time, the continuous popularization of new energy vehicles can also update people's travel modes and travel experiences.
