China is leading in electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing and has the largest number of EV chargers, with over 20 million by the end of 2025. The country has built the world's largest EV charging network, supporting over 40 million new energy vehicles. China's motivation for switching to EVs is driven by the need to reduce toxic air pollution, which causes over one million premature deaths annually. Critics of EVs claiming they run on coal-generated electricity are refuted, as China is a leader in clean, renewable energy sources like solar power. China's advancements in solar power and battery manufacturing position it to decrease reliance on fossil fuels and reduce air pollution.
