美國汽車業(yè)巨頭通用汽車認為，如果在全美推行一項稅收抵免支持的新項目，到2030年，可能推動數(shù)百萬輛電動汽車上路。

通用汽車很快會向美國政府展示一份計劃，將在全國范圍內(nèi)推行零排放汽車（NZEV）項目。通用汽車預(yù)計，如果一切進展順利，項目得到政府和汽車制造商的全力支持，到2030年電動汽車市場可能超過700萬輛。這意味著，2021年到2030年將減少3.75億噸二氧化碳排放。

“我們相信，通過政策手段能更好地推動美國的創(chuàng)新，而且就開發(fā)及配置電動汽車開展全國性的討論，這種討論非常有必要?！蓖ㄓ闷嚬緢?zhí)行副總裁、全球產(chǎn)品業(yè)務(wù)及旗下品牌凱迪拉克總裁馬克·羅伊斯在聲明中表示。

通用汽車是努力推行電動汽車的頂尖汽車制造商之一。該公司旗下已有全電動汽車雪佛蘭伏特，還公開表示希望通過向電動汽車的轉(zhuǎn)型減少碳排放，最終實現(xiàn)零排放。

不過，在推出電動汽車方面，通用汽車的一些競爭對手行動遲緩。通用汽車稱，NZEV項目將推動業(yè)內(nèi)企業(yè)團結(jié)起來實現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)型。

按照通用汽車提出的框架，稅收抵扣將可以幫助汽車制造商抵消生產(chǎn)電動汽車的成本，到2021年，汽車廠商出產(chǎn)電動汽車的7%可享受稅收抵扣，此后每年比率提高兩個百分點。到2030年，稅收抵免率將達到25%。抵免將根據(jù)汽車情況及行駛里程等因素決定。通用汽車還提出，為了推動NZEV項目順利實施，應(yīng)成立零排放特別工作組。

到目前為止，NZEV還只是提案。在對美國國家公路交通安全管理局和環(huán)保局聯(lián)合發(fā)布的“2021-2026車型年安全、實惠及燃料高利用率乘用車與輕型卡車規(guī)定”的草案評議中，通用汽車將正式提交NZEV。美國政府將決定最終是否實施。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

General Motors believes millions of electric vehicles could hit the road by 2030 if a new credit-based program is instituted across the U.S.

The automaker will soon present a plan to the U.S. government that would establish a National Zero Emissions Vehicle (NZEV) program across the country. If all were to go well and the program is fully supported by the government and automakers, GM believes more than 7 million long-range electric vehicles could be on the road by 2030. That would mean eliminating 375 million tons of CO2 emissions between 2021 and 2030, according to the company.

“We believe in a policy approach that better promotes U.S. innovation and starts a much-needed national discussion on electric vehicle development and deployment in this country,” GM EVP and president of the Global Product Group and Cadillac Mark Reuss said in a statement.

GM is one of the leading automakers in pushing for electric vehicles. The company already sells an all-electric Chevrolet Volt and has said publicly that it wants to reduce and eventually eliminate carbon emissions from its vehicles by transitioning to electric.

Still, some of its competitors have been slow to adopt electric vehicles. And GM says this initiative would help everyone work together to make the shift.

Under its proposed framework, credits to automakers to help them defray the cost of building EVs would start at 7% of a company’s electric vehicle fleet in 2021 and increase by two percentage points each year thereafter. By 2030, tax credits would reach 25%. Credits would be determined based on the vehicle and its range, among other factors. GM also proposes established a Zero Emissions Task Force to bring the program to fruition.

For now, the NZEV is just a proposal that GM will submit in its comments to the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks. The U.S. government would ultimately determine whether it becomes official.
