Canceling purchase tax New energy bus welcomes new opportunities for development


On August 6, 2014, the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Taxation, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued an announcement regarding the exemption of purchase tax for new energy vehicles. The State Council Executive Meeting decided that from September 1st, 2014 to the end of 2017, three kinds of new energy sources, namely hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cells that are licensed to sell (including imports) in China, including pure electric vehicles and qualified plug-in hybrids (including extension programs) Cars are exempt from vehicle purchase tax.

At this point, the policy of exemption from purchasing tax on new energy vehicles that have attracted much attention has finally settled. It is expected that by the end of August, the first inventory of new energy models for purchase tax will be announced. It is understood that vehicle purchase tax is a tax imposed on units and individuals purchasing domestic vehicles in the country. Taxes are calculated using the method of rate determination. The formula is: tax payable = taxable price X tax rate, tax rate 10%. This time, there is no upper limit on the tax exemption limit for exemption of vehicle purchase tax.

Car prices users share dividend plug-in hybrid distance the <br> <br> upon request, to enjoy the tax exemption of pure electric passenger car mileage is not less than 80 kilometers of pure electric passenger car mileage is not less than 150 kilometers, The hybrid electric vehicle's pure electric mileage is not less than 50 kilometers. From the perspective of the current promotion of new energy buses, plug-in hybrid new energy vehicles have become the main force for the development of new energy vehicles in China at this stage, among which Yutong Bus and Haeger Bus are the representatives. Mainstream companies have already put this technology vehicle into various parts of the country.

A survey by the reporter found that at present, many places in China are welcoming the “transit tide” of public transport. Basically, each province has issued a strategic plan for the "new energy" of buses. Among these replacement buses, plug-in hybrid buses have become the absolute main force. Take Yutong as an example. Between September 13, 2013 and July 7, 2014, over 30 cities in the country purchased Yutong plug-in hybrid buses, of which 600 were put into operation in June of this year in Fushun City. . Hager plug-in hybrid buses have also been promoted in more than 20 cities throughout the country and have been widely recognized by users.

What is more worth looking forward to is that according to the published promotion plan, the total promotion of new energy vehicles in 40 pilot cities (regions) from 2013 to 2015 is close to 350,000, of which the promotion of new energy buses is expected to reach 120,000, in this Of the 120,000 vehicles, plug-in hybrid new energy vehicles will become the absolute main force, and there is still greater potential for growth in the future.

Unified tax-free model catalog effectively breaks local protection

However, when we see the opportunities, we must also better handle the "stumbling block" in the progress. For a long time, new energy vehicles have subsidized the selfishness of “flood, water, and non-flowing people”, allowing some local governments to regard local markets as private plots and create conditions for new energy vehicles. This kind of production and promotion of new energy vehicles based on local interests and performance projects will not achieve the effect of energy conservation and environmental protection, but will increase the pressure on vehicle ownership costs of operating units. At present, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology may, in principle, not allow local governments to have their own small policies on enterprise access and industrial access, so that the development of new energy vehicles will gradually enter a healthy track.

The reporter was informed that the new energy vehicles exempted from purchase tax will be managed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the State Administration of Taxation through the issuance of the Catalogue of New Energy Vehicles Exempted from Purchase Taxes for Vehicles (hereinafter referred to as the “tax exempt catalog”). , Coverage is domestic new energy vehicles and imported new energy vehicles. Compared with the enormous pressure of passenger cars, for domestic passenger car companies, the impact is not great. Opportunities outweigh the challenges that seem to be the consensus of most car companies.

However, it is not easy to enter the tax-free model catalog. According to the regulations, new energy vehicles listed in the "Tax Exemption Catalogue" must meet four major conditions at the same time: they are licensed to purchase pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles (including extensions), and fuel cell vehicles that are sold in China; power batteries are not Including lead-acid batteries; pure electric cruising range meets the requirements; the combined fuel consumption of plug-in hybrid passenger cars and commercial vehicles is less than 60% compared with the current target value of the national standard for conventional fuel consumption; Strong after-sales service support capabilities.

Make good use of new energy bus node time spring arrives <br> <br> In addition, we see a very important point in time, that 2017 is an important time to promote the use of new energy vehicles of "nodes." We have seen that the reduction of the purchase tax taxation deadline by the end of 2017, and the current policy period is at the end of 2015. Before the relevant ministries revealed that the study introduced the follow-up policy in 2015, the proposed 2017, may also be the time for the promotion of China's new energy vehicles in the next phase "Node".

Many experts have stated that it is not too late for China to join the ranks of new energy vehicle competitors. However, over the years, the advancement of marketization has been unfavorable, which may cause the Chinese auto industry to miss another opportunity. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to make full use of these years.

Of course, the incentives for the exemption of purchase tax policy for new energy vehicles will be significant, and the implementation effect will be more obvious. First, the policy signal brought by tax exemption is obvious, reflecting the determination of the central government to promote the new energy automobile industry; the second is to bring consumers The benefits are clear, the actual savings of about 8.5% of the cost of car purchases; Third, the purchase tax is a central tax, the reduction does not affect the enthusiasm of local governments to promote the new energy automotive industry. Undoubtedly, a series of policies and technical factors are ready. The development of trends that are conducive to the industry will be close to the spring of new energy buses.
