Abstract: The Chinese Government has introduced numerous policy incentives to promote the development and adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), especially aggressive subsidization policies. Stimulated by such policies, sales of EVs exceeded 500,000 in 2016. However, the subsidies for EVs will be abrogated after 2020. In order to maintain market stability, the EV-related policy system needs innovation. Nonetheless, it is still unclear how effective different policy incentives are.
