Due to the low industry technology and investment threshold, low-speed electric vehicles have become "emerging industries" valued and supported by some local governments in Shandong, Henan, Hebei and other provinces and cities. However, due to unidentified and non-standard product technology, the development of low-speed electric vehicles is also accompanied by disorder and confusion, no guarantee of products, unclear road rights after driving, causing traffic accidents and other problems. At the CCTV 315 party in 2014, the problems of some low-speed electric vehicle enterprises in Shandong Province, such as poor workmanship, rough manufacturing, poor safety and frequent accidents, were highlighted.

  However, in the view of low-speed electric vehicle enterprises, these problems are not in the low-speed electric vehicle itself, but in the absence of management. "If we don't clarify the identity and strengthen management, the problems caused by low-speed electric vehicles will be more serious than those caused by electric bicycles and tricycles a few years ago. The experience of these two industries has shown that products with market demand will not develop because of disputes and government supervision, but will still develop. It's just that the development is more disorderly, there are more problems, and the cost of governance is higher." The person in charge of the above low-speed electric vehicle enterprises said.

  "With the development of the low-speed electric vehicle industry up to now, no one will deny that the potential of this industry is huge and there is a wide market demand. The problem now is not whether to develop this industry, but to introduce appropriate product technical standards and management norms as soon as possible to promote the development of industry norms. In fact, many of the current problems are rooted in the lack of basis and management." Jia Yongxuan, CEO of Beijing Sorong Electric Vehicle Technology Co., Ltd., said.

  Since 2011, the Shandong provincial government has been submitting a report to the State Council to apply for listing Shandong as a pilot province of small electric vehicles, but the matter has not been clearly replied. This means that even in the highly valued Shandong Province, the problem of regularization of low-speed electric vehicles has not been solved. "The investment of new energy electric vehicles has spawned a number of speculators and foam, and the entry threshold of low-speed electric vehicles is lower. The industry authorities have been worried that the more open speculators will be in the field of opening up." According to the above experts, this is also the reason why the industry authorities have been uncertain about the issue of "becoming a full-time employee" of low-speed electric vehicles.

  In the view of low-speed electric vehicle enterprises in Shandong Province, this large-scale investigation means that it is one step closer to the development of clear identity and industry norms. At the small-scale Symposium after the investigation, a person in charge of the energy conservation office of Shandong provincial government frankly said: the provincial government will introduce product standards and management measures as soon as possible, which is largely for key micro electric vehicle enterprises. There are great risks in the province. Relevant enterprises should make great efforts in production conditions, quality and safety, structural design and other aspects, do a good job in product quality, practice their internal skills, actively cooperate with relevant departments, and standardize the management of micro electric vehicles in the province as soon as possible.
