JIADING, China's leading automotive center, expects 1,000 electric cars to be on its streets this year as it steps up its role as the first demonstration area on the mainland to promote new-energy vehicles.
The electric cars will be available for both sale and rental. More than 30 electric buses will be put into use on routes around the district to demonstrate their environmental friendliness and safety performance.
Besides models produced by automakers like Chery, the Roewe 105, an electric vehicle, will roll off the production line in October.
Ding Xiaohua, manager of the new-energy business department of Shanghai International Automobile City, said starting in March, Jiading will partner with Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation, Roewe's producer, in the marketing and sales of the Roewe 105. And a group buying program will offer discount on the purchase of electric cars this year.
To make the charging stations more reasonable located, the district government has teamed up with Tongji University and the Society of Automotive Engineers of China to analyze the drivers' habit for charging and make a plan for the location of charging stations. This year, four charging stations and 2,000 charging poles will be built near the hospitals, parking lots and shopping malls.
Besides, the district's test driving center will bring the number of its electric car models to 15 by year end, and introduce the new-energy vehicles from home and abroad to more citizens through the driver's clubs and international auto exhibitions.
As one of the 12 electric vehicle initiators in China, Jiading is set to strengthen its leading position in international exchanges in this sector of the auto industry. It will continue to attend the Clean Energy Ministerial Meeting and other industry forums on electric cars this year.
It has signed letters of intent to push the development of new-energy cars with China Automotive Technology & Research Center, Volkswagen China and Hertz China this year.
