##欧盟对中国电动汽车加税遭多方反对：德国经济界呼吁理性合作
**德国联邦经济发展和对外贸易协会主席米夏埃尔·舒曼近日发表声明，强烈反对欧盟委员会对自中国进口的电动汽车征收临时反补贴税，认为此举是错误决定，将阻碍互利合作，不利于绿色低碳转型。**
舒曼表示，欧盟设定了到2050年实现碳中和的宏伟目标，而德国和欧洲交通行业的低碳转型是实现这一目标的重要基石。然而，由于欧洲市场上电动汽车价格昂贵、种类匮乏，德国电动汽车注册量出现下降。欧盟消费者以合理价格购买中国电动汽车，不仅符合消费者利益，也有助于欧洲推进绿色低碳转型。
舒曼强调，中国已成为电动交通领域的创新驱动力量，在全球交通行业绿色低碳转型进程中发挥重要作用。来自中国的电动汽车供应商有助于激活市场，助力德国电动汽车市场整体发展，让电动汽车获得更多消费者认可。电动汽车加快普及，对充电基础设施建设、电池技术发展等都具有重要推动作用。
此外，舒曼还指出，中国电动汽车行业已经并将继续成为全球创新典范。近年来，中国车企在智能化技术方面取得积极进展，这对德国车企具有借鉴价值。中国车企在欧洲积极投资，通过不断提升在欧洲的研发能力，为欧洲用户提供创新性技术解决方案，这不仅有效提升了中国车企的品牌形象和市场影响力，也为德国和欧洲汽车产业的转型作出了重要贡献。
舒曼认为，对来自中国的电动汽车征收临时反补贴税影响德国汽车制造商信心，可能会影响汽车制造这一德国经济支柱产业。当下，德国经济发展本就面临挑战，欧中之间出现贸易摩擦可能进一步损害德国的发展前景。
**除了舒曼，德国汽车工业协会主席希尔德加德·穆勒、梅赛德斯-奔驰集团股份公司董事会主席康林松等业界人士也纷纷发表声明，反对欧盟对中国电动汽车加税，呼吁欧盟与中方协商解决问题。德国总理朔尔茨也认为应该反对贸易保护主义，欢迎全球竞争。**
德国经济界人士普遍认为，为实现气候目标，德国需要更多电动汽车，尤其是拥有性价比优势的中国电动汽车，以帮助德国更快推进绿色低碳转型。欧盟对中国电动汽车加税将阻碍欧洲实现气候目标，也损害了德国的经济利益。他们呼吁欧盟理性对待中国电动汽车，避免贸易保护主义，与中国开展合作，共同推动全球绿色低碳转型。

##Electric Vehicle Tax Sparks Controversy: Experts Say China’s Decision is a Misstep

## EU’s Taxon Chinese Electric Vehicles Faces Opposition: German Economic Leaders Call for Rational Cooperation
**Michael Schumann, President of the Federation of German Industries (BDI), recently issueda statement strongly opposing the European Commission’s imposition of temporary anti-subsidy duties on electric vehicles imported from China. He considers this a wrong decision that willhinder mutually beneficial cooperation and be detrimental to the green and low-carbon transition.**
Schumann stated that the EU has set an ambitious goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, and the low-carbon transition of Germany andEurope’s transportation sector is a crucial cornerstone in achieving this goal. However, due to the high prices and limited selection of electric vehicles in the European market, electric vehicle registrations in Germany have declined. EU consumers purchasing Chinese electric vehicles at reasonableprices not only aligns with consumer interests but also helps Europe advance its green and low-carbon transition.
Schumann emphasized that China has become a driving force of innovation in the electric transportation sector and plays a vital role in the global green and low-carbon transition of the transportation industry. Electric vehicle suppliers from China help activatethe market and contribute to the overall development of the German electric vehicle market, leading to greater consumer acceptance of electric vehicles. The accelerated adoption of electric vehicles significantly drives the development of charging infrastructure and battery technology.
Furthermore, Schumann pointed out that the Chinese electric vehicle industry has been and will continue to be a global innovation model. In recent years, Chinese carmakers have made significant progress in intelligent technology, offering valuable insights for German carmakers. Chinese car companies are actively investing in Europe, continuously enhancing their research and development capabilities in Europe to provide innovative technological solutions for European users. This not only effectively enhances the brand image and market influence of Chinesecar companies but also makes a significant contribution to the transformation of the German and European automotive industry.
Schumann believes that imposing temporary anti-subsidy duties on electric vehicles from China will undermine the confidence of German car manufacturers and potentially impact the automotive manufacturing industry, a pillar of the German economy. Germany’s economic developmentis already facing challenges, and trade friction between Europe and China could further damage Germany’s prospects.
**Besides Schumann, Hildegard Müller, President of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), and Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management of Daimler AG, among other industry figures, havealso issued statements opposing the EU’s tax on Chinese electric vehicles and calling for the EU to negotiate a solution with China. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz also believes that trade protectionism should be opposed and welcomes global competition.**
German economic leaders generally believe that Germany needs more electric vehicles, especially cost-effective Chinese electric vehicles,to help Germany accelerate its green and low-carbon transition in order to achieve climate goals. The EU’s tax on Chinese electric vehicles will hinder Europe’s ability to achieve climate goals and harm Germany’s economic interests. They urge the EU to take a rational approach to Chinese electric vehicles, avoid trade protectionism,and cooperate with China to jointly promote the global green and low-carbon transition.
