Taiwan and China have signed letters of intent to cooperate on the certification and outsourcing of car components such as batteries for electric vehicles, Taiwan's Automotive Research & Testing Center said Wednesday.
The agreements, signed by trade associations from the two sides, will give Taiwanese firms more exposure to China's car market,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the center said in a statement at the end of a two-day cross-strait auto makers forum.
Less than 300,000 vehicles are sold each year in Taiwan, while the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers has estimated sales may hit 13 million units in China this year.
"Taiwan is strong in components like car electronics and batteries for electric vehicles,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Wu Zhixin, general manager of Tianjin Qingyuan Electric Vehicle Co., which is under the government-supported China Automotive Technology & Research Center,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said on the sidelines of the forum.
However, issues concerning safety and price must be resolved before electric vehicles are adopted on a mass scale, said Wu.
"There will be no mass market for electric cars within the next five years,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Paul Chung,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], vice president of the Taiwan government-supported Metal Industries Research & Development Center, adding the price of electric car batteries must fall by 70% from current levels to attract demand.
Taiwan's Yulon Motor Co. (2201.TW) plans to start selling battery-powered vehicles in Taiwan next year, but will lease the battery instead of selling it in order to attract sales, Yulon Motor President Chen Kuo-Rong has said.
