Energy-saving subsidy standards will increase most existing models will be cut

Implementation of the New Deal may be affected by vehicles Last week, Nandu reporter learned from a number of car manufacturers, enjoy the 3,000 yuan "energy-saving products Huimin project" fuel-efficient car subsidy models of fuel consumption standards, "definitely" to be improved. The general opinion in the industry is that although the new fuel consumption standards and the original 3,000 yuan subsidy have remained unchanged, the relevant ministries have not yet announced the final version, but if the “New Deal” is introduced this year, it will scrape the auto market where the original situation is not so good. There is a "tornado", and some of the self-owned brands are more likely to be hit hard!

“At present, no official documents have been received, but this matter (the fuel consumption standards of subsidized vehicles for energy-saving vehicles should be improved—the editor's note). Manufacturers know that Dongfeng Nissan also held a special meeting to discuss this issue!” Last week, Dongfeng Nissan related The person in charge said to reporters from the South. Another manufacturer also stated that “In order to continue to enjoy the 3,000 yuan energy-saving subsidies, it is inevitable that the fuel consumption standards will be raised. In fact, the two new vehicles that we are preparing to introduce in the near future are all making arguments, that is, whether we should achieve the new fuel consumption standards for energy-saving subsidies. Because this involves a cost calculation problem!"

Starting from June 2006, financial subsidies were used to promote auto manufacturers to develop more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly models to adjust the structure of the domestic auto industry. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Finance promulgated energy-saving products and energy-saving vehicles (1.6 liters and below). Passenger Cars) Promotion Implementation Rules for passenger cars fueled with petrol and diesel with an engine displacement of 1.6 liters or less, including hybrid vehicles, which are included in the “Vehicle Production Enterprise and Product Announcements” and through the vehicle fuel consumption logo. For automobiles and dual-fuel vehicles, different fuel consumption standards are determined according to the difference in vehicle maintenance quality, manual transmission, and automatic transmission. As long as the fuel consumption standards are within the applicable fuel consumption standards, a 3,000-yuan energy-saving allowance can be obtained.

Since June last year, the first “Energy-saving Products Huimin Project” energy-saving vehicle promotion catalog was released until the sixth batch of catalogs was released in May this year. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Finance issued more than 400 models of energy-saving models that can enjoy a financial subsidy of RMB 3,000. Almost all domestic passenger car manufacturers have their own products.

“The news we got was that the manual vehicle model with the vehicle trim quality between 1205 and 1320 (including) kilograms, and if we continue to enjoy the new fuel consumption standard of 3,000 yuan energy saving subsidies, the fuel consumption of the integrated working condition should reach 6.2 liters per 100 Kilometers, the standard for subsidy can be increased by about 10% from the previous 6.9 liters!” Last week, a manufacturer-related source told reporters. According to its understanding, if the 1.6-liter or lower passenger vehicle of the entire range of vehicle trim quality is to continue to enjoy a subsidy of 3,000 yuan, the fuel consumption standard must also be increased by about 10%.

The new standard is expected to "cage" in the fourth quarter

After stimulating policies such as vehicle purchase tax concessions, subsidy for the countryside, trade-in subsidies, and other stimulus policies that have exited the auto market from this year, the 3,000-yuan energy-saving subsidies have almost become the only good incentive for the domestic auto market. According to statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in the first half of the year, if the overall sales growth of domestic autos suddenly fell back to less than 6%, sales growth of domestic cars could still reach more than 8%, and more than 400 models could receive a subsidy of 3,000 yuan, apparently also firm. "Stability maintenance" factor!

The reporter learned last week that although the relevant New Deal enjoying the improvement of the subsidy fuel consumption standard has been finalized by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, there is no clear response from the relevant parties regarding when the New Deal will “get out”. However, in view of the indisputable fact that the increase in the domestic automobile market has fallen sharply this year, the introduction of the New Deal may well become the "last straw" for the auto market.

On the other hand, because the New Deal has never been introduced, a new list of energy-saving models that can enjoy subsidies cannot be announced in a timely manner. On the official website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the list of subsidies for energy-saving vehicles can be enjoyed, and since the release of the sixth batch of vehicles in May, it has not been updated!

"The new energy-saving subsidy model fuel consumption standards, it should come out in the fourth quarter!" Last week, a number of manufacturers related sources told reporters. But now, what people are most concerned about is obviously the new fuel consumption standards will bring much negative impact to the auto market!

“The negative impact of the increase in fuel consumption standards to obtain subsidies on the auto market is very large. According to the new requirements, of the 400 models that were previously announced to be eligible for energy-saving subsidies, half of the possible qualifications will continue to be subsidized.” Last week Dongfeng Nissan’s relevant sources revealed to reporters in Nandu. Even if Dongfeng is a technically strong joint venture manufacturer, although the previously subsidized Sunshine and Xinda vehicles will not be affected by the increase in fuel consumption standards, their new Sylphys will also be implicated.

The self-owned brands may suffer severe damages. “Enjoying the energy-saving subsidy fuel consumption standards will increase the impact on self-owned brand manufacturers, and may even cause serious damage to self-owned brands, because the self-owned brands will meet new fuel consumption standards in the short term, and the first is that the technical reserves may not be sufficient. Second, even if there is a corresponding technical reserve, huge investment in costs is a big test!” Last week, relevant sources expressed to reporters.

According to statistics, of the six batches of “Energy-saving Products Benefiting People Project” announced so far, the self-owned brands accounted for more than half of the promotion catalogue. Taking Chery as an example, of the 125 models announced in the first and second batch of energy-saving vehicle promotion catalogues of the “Energy-saving Products Benefiting People Project”, only Chery had 19 models selected, accounting for 15.2% of the total number of models selected. “In the first half of this year, the autonomous brands of passenger cars not only lost sales year-on-year, but also accounted for a lower share of the total sales of passenger cars. The fuel consumption standard for enjoying energy-saving auto subsidies has to be raised again, and it is worthwhile for self-owned brands to be a key player! The person concerned said last week.

The reporter learned last week that the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology needed to raise the fuel consumption threshold for enjoying energy-saving models. In addition to the central government's budget for budgetary funds, the original subsidy standard resulted in a low threshold. Fiscal subsidies cannot effectively play a role in promoting auto manufacturers to develop more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the structure of the domestic auto industry and are closely related.

It is understood that in order to implement the promotion of energy-saving products and energy-saving vehicles, the central government has allocated 12 billion yuan in special funds, and this fund has basically been warned in June this year.

“Based on the current status of the domestic auto market, the relevant departments still want to continue to implement energy-saving vehicle subsidy policies and try to maintain a steady growth of the auto market. However, because the subsidy fuel consumption threshold was too low, it is basically a corporate application that can be obtained. Therefore, in order to To better highlight the guiding role of energy-saving vehicle subsidies, the relevant departments have finally decided to continue to implement the energy-saving vehicle subsidy policy, but also to significantly increase the fuel consumption threshold for subsidized vehicles!” The source said last week to the South.

Note: Special vehicles for energy-saving vehicle verification The first batch of vehicle models for the demonstration of the fuel consumption of the first batch of prototypes are based on the current statement that energy-saving subsidies are expected to increase. After the introduction of the new standard, whether the above models can enjoy energy-saving subsidies It is difficult to determine.
