The Chang'an executive said that 35% of users will still choose gasoline cars.

At the 2025 World Intelligent Industry Expo Chang'an Technology Ecology Conference held on September 7th, Yang Dayong, the newly appointed Executive Vice President of Changan Automobile, proposed that despite the rapid development of new energy vehicles, at least 35% of users will continue to choose traditional fuel vehicles in the future market. Yang Dayong currently concurrently manages Changan Automobile's traditional fuel vehicle "Gravity" series and the new energy "Source" brand, further clarifying the development path of Changan Automobile's dual focus on traditional fuel and new energy vehicles. He pointed out that it is not realistic for everyone to switch to new energy vehicles. According to the message released by the China Charging Alliance on August 22, as of the end of July this year, there were only 12.49 million private charging piles nationwide. Yang Dayong believes that although this number is still growing, for most households without charging piles, traditional fuel vehicles remain a practical choice. In the future market, the sales structure of traditional fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles will be 35:65.
