The annual sessions of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference National Committee are in progress. Executives of automakers have submitted their proposals. Here are some:

Li believes that, to maintain China's international leadership in the new energy vehicle industry and meet international carbon emission requirements, it is urgent to accelerate the construction of a national carbon market. Li suggests establishing a unified product carbon footprint management system for the automotive industry and promoting international mutual recognition of carbon footprints; prioritizing the alignment mechanism between the credit system and the carbon reduction system; expediting the introduction of policies for key industries in carbon reduction and promoting the construction of a national carbon market; and enhancing the standardized management of digital carbon management tools.

Zhu has made several proposals regarding smart transportation and automotive digitization, addressing topics such as intellectual property legislation and car consumption. In the smart transportation sector, he notes that China is still in the early stages, facing challenges such as redundant construction of small and medium-sized devices, a lack of large-scale devices, and dependence on foreign suppliers for devices' hardware and software. In response, Zhu suggests establishing a collaborative platform involving industry, academia and research to jointly build and utilize internationally superior driving simulation facilities and corresponding software and scenario libraries. He also suggests refining regulations on automobile data ownership.

Feng proposes unified standards for high-power charging and battery swapping in the automotive sector. He suggests exploring a comprehensive solid-state battery standard system. Highlighting electric vehicles as mobile energy storage units, Feng suggests integrating them into the power grid for cost-effective distributed energy storage. To accelerate that, he suggests improving technical standards, establishing complete pricing and power trading mechanisms and increasing demonstration applications. Feng also proposes several measures to protect and promote high-quality export growth, including enhancing international cooperation and optimizing export supervision mechanisms.

He suggests exploring policies for low-speed autonomous driving in specific scenarios and launching a pilot for low-speed autonomous driving during nighttime. In the flying car sector, he emphasizes accelerating top design in product management, certification and standardization. He suggests internationalizing Chinese standards and establishing driver qualification and training systems for flying cars. Drawing from the new energy vehicle industry, he proposes coordinated policies and resources to expedite the development of the flying car industry.

Zhang believes the suppliers in the Chinese automotive industry face challenges in building stable relationships with automakers and risk technological lag and disruptions. To address this, he suggests policies to support supply chain companies in merging smaller ones. Zhang emphasizes the importance of international standards for carbon footprint calculations and encourages high-quality supply chain companies to expand globally. Additionally, he proposes establishing financial platforms to support domestic automakers in their international endeavors.

Lei highlights significant differences in current intelligent driving products, posing risks to safety and data security. He suggests the establishment of regulations and standards for safe application. Lei proposes three key measures: standardizing assisted driving functions, regulating autonomous parking and standardizing in-car data use to enhance safety. Additionally, he suggests addressing the increased demand for artificial intelligence talents by promoting AI courses in compulsory education, expanding AI-related majors in universities and supporting technology companies in cultivating AI talents.
