New energy vehicles is refers to the use of unconventional car with fuel as a power source (or routine use of vehicle fuel, the new vehicle power device, integrated vehicle dynamics control and driving of advanced technology, the formation of advanced technical principles, with new technology, new structure of automobile.
New energy vehicles, including gas vehicle (liquefied natural gas, compressed natural gas), fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), pure electric vehicles (Bev), liquefied petroleum gas vehicles, hydrogen powered cars, hybrid cars (oil and gas mixing, hybrid) solar cars and other new energy (such as high efficient storage of energy for automobile and its exhaust emissions is relatively low.
As of the end of 2010, the world's natural gas car ownership has more than 12670000, while natural gas filling station is more than 18200. The rapid development of China's natural gas vehicle, which LNG (liquefied natural gas) automobile sales rate of more than 20% of the average annual growth in, CNG (compressed natural gas) car sales annual growth rate in more than 30%.
New energy automobile quality certification in addition to ordinary car detection index, there are some specific testing standards, such as: electric car defrosting, electric car mist, electric vehicle graphics symbol, safety technology requirements of fuel cell electric vehicle, the intensity of electromagnetic radiation, electric vehicle with the performance of lithium ion battery, electric vehicle lead-acid battery performance, safety requirements of electric vehicles a total of 11.
