China and Germany are the countries at the forefront of the transition to electric mobility. China was the leading country for the technological development of electric vehicles, whereas Germany scored highest in terms of current customer demand.
Chinese market on the road to success
The E-mobility index uses three key indicators to compare the competitive positions of some of the leading automotive sales markets worldwide: technology, industry, and market. After beginning to roll back subsidies for electric vehicles, China fell behind in terms of electric vehicle market size, although China was the world's largest automotive market in 2020. It is estimated that between three and 3.5 million electric vehicles were in use across China in 2019.
Methodology
Technology: Current status of technological improvements implemented by domestic original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Industry: Cumulative domestic production of BEVs and PHEVs; cumulative national component and system production.
Market: EV market size, based on current customer demand.
