The annual output of the national bicycle industry will exceed 120 million
On December 2, the reporter learned from the 2021 China Bicycle Industry Conference held by the China Bicycle Association in Guangzhou that the total output of China’s bicycle industry in 2020 is 117 million, a year-on-year increase of 15.3%, and the total output in 2021 will exceed 120 million. The largest bicycle producer and consumer country.
The output value has ranked first in the world for many years
As an important consumer goods industry, the bicycle electric bicycle industry is closely related to the people's good life.
The output value and output of China's bicycle and electric bicycle industry have ranked first in the world for many years.
Zhang Chonghe, President of the China National Light Industry Council, said that for decades, China’s bicycle industry has witnessed the development from national brand to globalization, from the top of the "three revolutions and one sound" to diplomatic national ceremonies, and from important travel tools to low-carbon life. The extraordinary development history of New China.
In 2020, the revenue of enterprises above designated size in the bicycle industry exceeded 150.2 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.6%, and profits increased by 11.4%. In the first three quarters of this year, the operating income of enterprises above designated size in the industry reached 140.12 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 23.7%, and a profit of 6.2 billion yuan. Yuan, an increase of 43.1% year-on-year; the industry’s main business income is expected to achieve a growth of more than 10% in 2021.
At present, China's social ownership of electric bicycles has reached nearly 300 million, and it is also the world's largest producer, consumer and exporter of electric bicycles.
In 2020, the output of electric bicycles was 41.261 million, a year-on-year increase of 14.3%, of which 2.018 million were exported, a year-on-year increase of 38.9%.
Towards the mid-to-high end of the industrial value chain
Liu Suwen, chairman of the China Bicycle Association, introduced that this year is the beginning of the "14th Five-Year Plan". The bicycle industry is armed with digital engineering to arm all links of the industrial chain, and intelligent transformation is used to lead the reengineering of the industrial ecosystem, through the cultivation of new technologies, new products, and new business formats. , New model, enhance the value content of products and brands, and extend to the middle and high end of the industrial value chain.
According to statistics, China's bicycle exports have shown a strong growth trend. The export value of bicycles and parts in the first three quarters of 2021 reached 7.764 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year increase of 67.9%, the highest growth rate in the past five years.
Among the six products exported by bicycles, the exports of "racing bikes" and "mountain bikes", which represent high-end sports and high value-added products, have grown strongly, with the export volume increasing by 122.7% and 50.6% respectively year-on-year.
The grade and added value of bicycle products have further improved. In September, the average unit price of exported vehicles reached US$71.2, a record high. The export volume to the United States, Canada, Chile, Russia and other countries maintained a double-digit growth rate.
The rapid growth of bicycle parts export orders exceeds supply. Among them, the average export unit price of mid-to-high-end transmissions is close to US$50, enabling domestic mid-to-high-end transmissions to go abroad.
Contribute to the construction of a green transportation power
Shared bicycles and electric bicycles are increasingly becoming a new mode of travel to build a low-carbon and efficient transportation system and reduce urban pollutant emissions.
Since the implementation of the "new national standard" in 2019, the safety performance of electric bicycles has been comprehensively improved.
Industry statistics show that the output of lithium battery electric bicycles in China in 2011 was less than 700,000; since the "new national standard" was released and officially implemented, the output has increased to 3.072 million in 2018, 4.981,000 in 2019, and even more so in 2020. It broke through 10 million vehicles.
The change in output data and the trend of exponential growth have confirmed that lithium-ionization is a new direction for the development of the industry.
At the same time, key battery companies supporting new energy vehicles are optimistic about the prospects of the lithium battery electric bicycle market and have entered one after another, which has further promoted product research and development and market investment, and the application of lithium batteries in the electric bicycle industry has further accelerated.
Liu Suwen said that on the basis of the natural green attributes of the two-wheeled products, the industry took the lead in realizing a comprehensive clean transformation from the production end to the end of use. At the same time, the two-wheel equipment safety regulations were promoted to create intelligent and convenient traffic scenarios, in order to achieve a strong bicycle country and even a strong transportation country. The goal is to provide continuous and strong support.
