China mandates lighter electric vehicles amid weight gain concerns

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Chinese passenger vehicles have significantly increased in weight over the past decade, with average curb weight reaching 1704 kg in 2024, an increase of nearly 400 kg since 2012. This trend is particularly noticeable in new energy vehicles, where wider bodies and larger battery packs contribute to the added weight. To combat this, a new mandatory national standard implemented in January 2024 aims to curb the trend of increasingly heavy electric vehicles by requiring energy efficiency standards for new models, potentially guiding manufacturers back towards more standard vehicle sizes.

IMPACT New regulations may push AI-powered vehicle design towards efficiency and reduced weight, impacting battery and component integration.

    China's passenger cars have gained nearly 400 kg in 12 years, and China's new energy vehicles need to lose weight.

    数据显示，2024年，我国乘用车平均整备质量达1704公斤，比2012年足足“胖”了近400公斤。此外，2000年前后，市场常见的家用新能源汽车，车宽多在1.7米。2015年，宽度增加到1.8米。本周，动辄接近2吨重的家用车，正因为变大变胖，引发大家讨论。车企工程师表示，新能源汽车车身每增加10毫米宽度，大约能多塞进0.8度电。但专家说，车辆变“胖”不仅这一个原因。专家介绍：有些车企通过续航里程做卖点，号称车可以充一次电开800公里、1000公里，其实背后是要在车里面装一个很大的电池包，一个大的电池包可能有七八百公斤。甚至有些车企把马桶都设计到车里去了，…
