Historical development of new energy vehicles
The first stage:1mid-9th century, 188 1 year, the first electric vehicle using lead-acid batteries appeared.

Pure electric vehicles have been used for a long time before the emergence of fuel vehicles. 1900, of the 4,200 cars sold in Europe and America, 40% were steam locomotives, 38% were electric cars, and the remaining 22% were fuel cars. At that time, the fuel car was still using external combustion engine technology, which was noisy and smoky, and was not the first choice for upper-class consumers in Europe. It turns out that fuel trucks also have a black history!

The second stage: At the beginning of the 20th century, the development of internal combustion engine made pure electric vehicles withdraw from the market.

With the development of engine technology, the invention of starter and the improvement of production technology, fuel vehicles have formed an absolute advantage at this stage. Compared with the inconvenience of charging electric vehicles, pure electric vehicles have withdrawn from the automobile market at this stage.

The third stage: In the 1960s, the oil crisis made people pay more attention to pure electric vehicles.

At this time, Europe has entered the middle stage of industrialization. Due to the emergence of the oil crisis, people began to reflect on the increasingly serious environmental problems, which made people re-examine pure electric vehicles. Driven by capital, in those ten years, the driving technology of electric vehicles has developed greatly, pure electric vehicles have attracted more and more attention, and small electric vehicles have begun to occupy a fixed market, such as golf course scooters.

The fourth stage: In the 1990s, battery technology was backward, and manufacturers using electric vehicles changed their development direction.

At this stage, due to the lagging development of battery technology and no major breakthrough, electric vehicle manufacturers are facing great challenges. Under the market pressure, automobile manufacturers began to develop hybrid vehicles to overcome the problems of short battery and cruising range.

The fifth stage: 2 1 at the beginning of the century, battery technology made a breakthrough, and countries began to apply electric vehicles on a large scale.

At this stage, the battery density is improved, and the endurance level of electric vehicles is also improved at a speed of 50 kilometers per year. The dynamic performance of the motor is not weaker than that of some low-displacement fuel vehicles. China is vigorously promoting the technological development and product landing of new energy vehicles. Up to now, China has become the country with the largest number of new energy vehicles and the highest output in the world.
