2010年,中国以超过1000万辆的销量超越美国和日本成为全球第一大汽车市场后,并成为仅次于美国的全球第二大汽车消费市场。但是,这些数据和“成就”并没有给政府、汽车生产商和汽车运输企业们带来太多喜悦。越来越恶化的气候环境、面临枯竭的能源宣告了汽车已经构成了环境和能源的一大威胁,节能减排成为整个汽车产业链上的紧迫课题。 In 2010, China surpassed the United States and Japan to become the world’s No. 1 car market with more than 10 million units sold and became the world’s second-largest car consumer market after the United States. However, these figures and “achievements” did not bring much delight to governments, car makers and car carriers. The deteriorating climate environment and the depleted energy proclaim that automobiles have posed a major threat to the environment and energy. Energy conservation and emission reduction have become pressing issues in the entire automotive industry chain.
