chongqing, september 13 (china news service) - open the door, sit on the seat, step on the brake, and the door automatically closes. lai yueqian, a well-known current affairs commentator in taiwan, experienced a new energy vehicle made in the mainland. "the seat of this car is ergonomic. there is no sense of pressure when sitting down. it is very comfortable."

more than 20 media reporters from both sides of the taiwan strait recently visited chongqing to learn about the current status of the mainland's automobile industry and the latest achievements of new energy vehicles. at present, chongqing is making every effort to build a world-class intelligent networked new energy vehicle industry cluster. data shows that in the first half of 2024, chongqing's automobile production will reach 1.214 million vehicles, of which 391,000 will be new energy vehicles, which will effectively help chongqing return to the status of "the first automobile city" on the mainland.

liangjiang new area is the main base for the development of chongqing's automobile industry. in the local changan automobile global r&d center, high-looking new energy vehicles are lined up, attracting reporters from both sides of the taiwan strait to take pictures. lai yueqian said: "the growth of mainland's independent automobile brands in recent years is obvious to all, and they are not inferior to overseas brands."

chongqing fudi lithium battery co., ltd., located in bishan, chongqing, is the world's first "blade battery" production base. the production line can produce a "blade battery" every 6 seconds. these batteries will serve as the "heart" and will be installed in new energy vehicles.

in the view of song bingzhong, executive deputy editor-in-chief of taiwan's meihua news network, for young taiwanese people who pursue fashion and technology, choosing a favorite new energy vehicle is not only a travel necessity, but also an expression of a lifestyle.

song bingzhong told reporters: "in response to climate change, taiwan has been under great pressure to reduce carbon emissions in recent years. developing the new energy vehicle industry is a good way to break the current deadlock. in just a few years, not only has the mainland's new energy vehicle penetration rate been high, but the supporting industries such as batteries and charging piles are also very complete. these experiences are worth learning from taiwan."

at the chongqing branch of great wall motor co., ltd. in yongchuan, chongqing, taiwan self-media blogger jiang chengpu couldn't wait to get on a new off-road vehicle, taking a closer look and experiencing it in depth. "i didn't expect this to be the largest pickup truck production base in the mainland." he looks forward to mainland car brands entering the taiwanese market, and one day he will be able to drive a mainland off-road vehicle in taiwan to enjoy the sea breeze.
