Recently, news from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that the "Energy-saving and new energy automobile industry development plan (2011-2020)" (hereinafter referred to as the new plan) that is planned to be released at the end of the year has now been completed and submitted to the State Council for approval. It is reported that hybrid vehicles that were previously "discriminated" enjoyed more policy support in R&D, spare parts and consumer purchase. This pragmatic move not only diversifies the development direction of domestic new energy vehicles, but also brings historical opportunities for the development of hybrid vehicles.

It is noteworthy that Shanghai General Motors plans to launch a new generation of Buick LaCrosse eAssist hybrid vehicles at the end of August. Under the new planning background, the impact of this "comfortable" model on the market should not be underestimated. According to relevant information, the vehicle is based on Buick LaCrosse, which is currently sold in the market, and is equipped with a 2.4L SIDI direct-injection engine with a high-performance motor and a high-efficiency lithium-ion battery. It is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission and has automatic start-stop and brake energy recovery. With such functions, fuel economy will increase by 20% compared to existing ordinary models. If the information is true, the car will be eligible to enjoy the new plan for the subsidy for hybrid vehicles.

The editor also learned that the market price of the Buick LaCrosse eAssist hybrid car will not exceed 300,000 yuan. Such pricing is expected to break through the current "high" barriers of hybrid cars, and to provide consumers with more affordable goods at the cost of close to gasoline cars.
