Question regarding NEV logistics vehicles like trucks. I am completely unfamiliar with them, but how do logistics companies plan to integrate Truck BEVs? Battery switching terminals along highways? Super-fast charging? Or do they specifically plan and limit routes to accomodate BEV trucks?

The post says 400km per charge and battery swapping. 400km is long enough to cover two major cities/hubs in populated areas in Europe, East Asia and West Asia.

The narrative of that XCMG video says "单班年产2400台" which means 2400 machines per shift per year. Such highly automated factories perhaps run at least two shifts every day year long.

When we talk about EV adoption, we typically focus on sticker price and features of the car. Those are important, but charging is also very fundamental. China seems to have done very well on charging, in terms of price and convenience.

Laggards in charging will see their EV adoption hit a natural ceiling until they fix it. I do wonder how nationally representative Guangzhou is, though I suspect the national median is not too far off.

Guangzhou is probably representative of the big coastal cities; inland will be worse in terms of charging infrastructure. Still, so long as it covers most of the people making short urban trips then it's fine.

Not really sure how they calculate the fast charging to gasoline cost ratio. Nationally the gas price doesn't differ much but Guangzhou's electricity price should should be amongst the highest in China. So all of China should be below or around this ratio.
