Under these conditions, the automobile industry introduced new technologies in automobile manufacturing. Therefore, the development of multi-energy, highly efficient, and environmentally friendly new energy vehicles (NEVs) has become the focus of the automobile industry’s development. NEVs include hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs); plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs); battery electric vehicles (BEVs) or electric vehicles (EVs); and fuel cell vehicles or hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs). This paper will provide a brief overview of the problems involved in the development of EVs. The main problem with EVs is their large battery size, heavyweight, and high cost. The paper contains suggestions and assumptions made by implementing frugal technology to reduced materials, resources used in the production of an EV. The ultimate goal is to reduce costs and bring affordable mass production to markets. It also predicts the future development trend of EVs in China.}, pages = {31--56}, title = {Development and Progress of Electric Vehicles in China}, volume = {50}, year = {2022} }
