Global emission reduction disorder is because consumers’ preference to traditional SUV

According to a new report of the International Energy (IEA), 2020 due to the economic growth of traditional SUV, offset all the efforts made to reduce emissions.

Although the global outbreak of new crown epidemic, the global and energy-related carbon emissions have fallen last year, but this decline does not contain cars, it is exactly the traditional SUV in the car.

It is estimated that 2020 global and energy-related total emissions fell by 7%, which is the largest drop in history. It is about five times the decline in 2009 after the global financial crisis.

However, behind this historic emission decline, SUV has caused its data to be conspicuous because of counter-rising.

Since SUV is getting more popular in the global market, its emissions have grown nearly twice in the past 10 years, exceeding the growth rate in other fields in the automotive market.

Today, SUV emissions can even be compared with the entire transportation industry including international shipping.

In particular, in 2020, the sales of SUVs fell by nearly 3 million in 2019, but their share of the total sales volume in 2020 has increased to 42%. Compared to about 3 percentage points higher than 2019, and in major automotive markets such as the United States, Europe and China, the proportion of SUV in the total sales volume has been continuously rising.

According to estimates that in 2020, the number of global SUVs has exceeded 280 million, and in 2010, this number is less than 50 million.

Although most modern SUVs are not as “oil tigers” like old-fashioned cars, their efficiency is generally lower than traditional cars.

According to IEA’s research, the SUV compared to average 20% more energy in the same driving distance, this gap isThe district is different.

For example, in the EU and India, a general SUV consumes approximately 10% more energy due to a high penetration rate of small SUVs.

At the same time, the relatively large SUV in the United States means that the average consumption is more than 30% compared to the medium vehicle.

The large number of SUVs will inevitably lead to increased oil consumption, although the epidemic has an impact on the overall use of the automobile, but the fuel consumption of SUV last year Still higher than 2019.

According to statistics, the oil consumption of global SUV has reached 5.5 million barrels per day in 2020.

Relatively speaking, the new “model” of electric vehicles has gradually been recognized by consumers, but the global car has made a reduction in 40,000 barrels / Tianhe oil demand.

According to data statistics, the global electric vehicle response to 50% in 2020 is about 850,000. Especially in the promotion of policies, the EU’s sales in the previous few months of the 2020 have reached a few more than the same period last year, reaching about 800,000.

In many European main car markets including Germany, France and the United Kingdom, as of November 2020, the market share of electric vehicles has exceeded 15%.

People’s enthusiasm for SUV is also reflected in the electric vehicle market, because the penetration rate of pure electric SUV is gradually rising. In 2019, the global electric SUV model exceeded 100, not an electric model of SUV of approximately 180.

In 2020, SUV has accounted for 44% of electric vehicle models, which has increased compared to 38 percentages in 2019. Since more electric SUV is expected to be available in 2021, the gap between these two models is expected to be further reduced. [1

However, due to the large number of sales of transmission SUVs that have not been converted into electric drive (nearly 97% of SUV sold in 2020, the entire electric car is in this year. The promotion share of sales in the global market is the contribution to the decline in oil demand, which has been completely removed by the sales growth of SUV in the same period.

As regards traditional cars (excluding SUV), it has a lot of oil consumption in 2020, reduced by about 1.8 million barrels / day, and more than 10%. This is caused by the travel restrictions caused by the new championship, and the increase in SUV leads to a reduction in the market share of traditional cars, and the turn to electric vehicles and improvement in fuel efficiency.

However, the raging new crown epidemic also delayed consumers to buy new cars.

According to IEA analysis, it is estimated that approximately 9 million people have been postponed to replace the old car, and these old, efficient cars have long been used for long-term use, making 2020 Oil consumption increased by 50,000 barrels / day.

In short, on the road of global energy conservation and emission reduction, traditional SUV has become the greatest hindrance. This type of car is constantly setting up new records in the US, EU, China and India.

In the United States, the share of SUV has more than 50% in 2020; in the EU, its share has risen by about 3 percentage points in 2020, reaching 39%; in China Similar growth.

In order to let the world embark on the “Paris Agreement” climate target, the SUV is also allowed to get rid of the identity of the emissions manufacturer, the best way to let more consumers fall in love with Electric SUV.

In addition, improve the sales of electric vehicles, so that more consumers turn to small cars, and the efficiency of enhance internal combustion engine cars is equally important, these will be the automotive industry Reduce the key to emissions.

Of course there is more strongerHard practice Inhibits people’s preference for traditional SUVs, such as a higher tax for vehicles with high car, the French government is so dry.
