The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the key points of the 2025 automotive standardization work: promoting the evaluation methods and indicators of passenger vehicle fuel consumption, and the implementation of standards such as the limit on energy consumption of electric vehicles.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has released the key points of the automobile standardization work for 2025, strengthening the development of green and low-carbon standards for automobiles. It will promote the implementation of standards such as the evaluation method and indicators for fuel consumption of passenger vehicles, the energy consumption limit for electric vehicles, and accelerate the development of standards such as monitoring of energy consumption in passenger vehicles, the pure electric utilization coefficient of light-duty hybrid vehicles, and the evaluation of vehicle predictive cruise control systems. Pre-research will be conducted on standards such as the evaluation of average fuel consumption of heavy commercial vehicles, technical specifications for hydrogen engine vehicles, and classification and grading of automobile energy conservation, to continuously promote energy saving and emission reduction in automobiles. It will also promote the implementation of standards such as greenhouse gas management terms and definitions for road vehicles, product carbon footprint labeling, as well as key product carbon footprints for road vehicles and passenger vehicles. It will advance the carbon accounting of engine manufacturing enterprises, scrap motor vehicle recycling and dismantling enterprises, and review and approval of carbon emissions for engine products, accelerate the carbon accounting of whole vehicle manufacturing enterprises, and the development of carbon footprint standards for key products such as electric vehicles, power batteries, and drive motors. Pre-research will be conducted on standards for carbon reduction technologies such as electronic labeling of automobile products, use of recycled materials, and comprehensive utilization of scrapped automobile resources, to provide support for automobile carbon emission management.
