BOSTON, April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The important new IDTechEx Research report, "Electric Vehicles in China 2019-2029" finds that the market penetration in China of electric buses is more impressive than electric cars. However, it cautions that, even here, two or more diesel buses are still made for every electric one in China. There has never been support to electrify one million polluting old school buses but IDTechEx predicts when their up-front price in electric form meets conventional and sales take off. The statement that China has 400,000 large pure electric buses and that is 99 percent of the number in the world is true but not the whole story. Performance comparisons, battery specifications and suppliers - it is all summarized in information-packed pages.

Understand why electric bus exports but not car or truck exports are impressive but e-trucks will become a huge business in China. Learn how Chinese companies, often with Chinese government backing are continuing to buy brands, routes to market and advanced technology. Some new Chinese technologies are impressive but it eagerly seeks others. Which? The new data IDTechEx has gathered, using its multi-lingual Ph.D. level analysts, make it optimistic about solar roads and drone, hub motor and supercapacitor vehicle leadership. Discover which type of EV will sell from China at three times the volume of electric bikes.

China is catching up in robot shuttles and software-controlled fleets and updates. It needs to do better in power electronic, high energy density supercapacitors, structural electronics and other identified aspects. With EV batteries becoming smaller soon due faster charging and other innovations, some Chinese gigafactories may become stranded assets. When? Understand how Chinese EV components will succeed hugely abroad and damage the business of traditional western Tier One suppliers insufficiently investing in R&D.

"Electric Vehicles in China 2019-2029" embraces 51 companies. The 34-page "Executive Summary and Conclusions" reveals new infograms, tables, graphs and detailed forecasts. They give rapid insight into good and bad EV sectors in China, largest manufacturers, export and import gaps in the market, technology trends and tools for prediction. The emphasis is on distilled information with many conclusions and predictions.

The Introduction to the report then examines pollution, congestion, vehicle specifications and evolving capability in China and why certain vehicles are favored by the government. Regulatory, reuse, recycling and traceability in China are covered.

Chapter 3 concerns small EVs in China – 2 and 3 wheel and car-like vehicles. It focuses on market slowdowns, restrictions and growth opportunities. Chapter 5 summarizes the electric car situation in China, with examples of sales and technology leadership by different companies.

Chapter 4 is more detailed on the large activity in buses and, in the future, trucks and their batteries, which presently have the largest cost. Learn of the fuel cell vehicle strategy and initiatives and supercapacitor buses and trucks eliminating traction batteries. See negligence and innovation with buses and trucks. Chapter 6 profiles leaders BYD and Yutong in a critical but balanced manner. IDTechEx describes them as successful opposites both having big challenges and opportunities ahead.
