China Leads the Charge: Unveils 9 New Global EV Standards
21 Oct
Summary
- China leads development of 9 new international EV standards
- Standards cover batteries, safety, and performance evaluation
- Supports China's electric vehicle industry in global expansion

In a significant development for China's electric vehicle (EV) industry, the country has taken the lead in establishing 9 new international standards for the sector. As of October 2025, these standards, which cover areas such as battery technology, safety design, and performance evaluation, have been officially released and are now being implemented.
According to Liu Guibin, the secretary general of the Electric Vehicle Sub-Technical Committee of China's National Technical Committee of Auto Standardization, this achievement represents a shift from China "following" global EV regulations to now "leading" the charge in setting new international norms. The new standards are expected to provide crucial support for China's rapidly growing EV industry as it seeks to expand its presence in global markets.
The release of these 9 international EV standards is a testament to China's growing technological prowess and its commitment to shaping the future of sustainable mobility. This development is likely to have far-reaching implications, not only for China's domestic EV sector but also for the global automotive industry as a whole.
