In addition to independent brands, joint venture brand electric cars have also begun to adjust prices. Ford officially announced that some of its Mustang Mach-E models have been adjusted due to sharp increases in car manufacturing and raw material costs, with price increases ranging from 7000 yuan to 20, 000 yuan.

According to Ford's latest official sales figures, Ford delivered a total of 969 Mustang Mach-E units in March. According to the data, compared with other new energy vehicle products, Ford Mustang Mach-E does not have a strong sense of presence in the market.

Since the beginning of this year, nearly 50 new energy models from more than 20 car companies have announced price increases, and the rise in the price of raw materials for power batteries has been transmitted to the whole vehicle, which is considered to be the main reason for this round of price adjustment. However, although a number of new energy car companies have announced price increases, sales of new energy vehicles have not been affected at all. Data show that in March 2022, sales in the domestic narrow passenger car market were 1.579 million, down 10.5 percent from the same period last year, up 25.6 percent from the previous year, of which 445000 were new energy passenger vehicles, up 137.6 percent from the same period last year and 63.1 percent from the previous year.

Fundamentally speaking, the development of new energy vehicles is the only way for our country to move from a big automobile country to an automobile power, and the policy documents have repeatedly expressed the determination to continue to support the consumption of new energy vehicles. At the end of 2020, the General Office of the State Council issued the Development Plan of New Energy vehicle Industry (2021-2035), which clearly put forward the target that the sales of new energy vehicles will reach about 20% of the total sales of new cars by 2025. On the whole, despite the superposition of adverse factors such as macroeconomic downturn and epidemic spread, the market expectation of new energy vehicles is still good. It is generally believed in the industry that, thanks to the trend of intelligence, electrification and the improvement of core technology, domestic independent brands have changed lanes to overtake and accelerate their ability to break through.

A few days ago, the General Office of the State Council issued another article on "supporting the accelerated development of new energy vehicles", "encouraging areas with conditions to carry out new energy vehicles and green smart home appliances to the countryside, and promoting the construction of supporting facilities such as charging piles (stations)." Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the Federation, said that the country will stabilize the growth of the new energy vehicle market and continue to support the consumption of new energy vehicles, which will greatly promote the development of the domestic car market this year.
