On June 4, it was reported that the Russian Ministry of industry and trade has revised the technical requirements for electric vehicle fast charging facilities. Now such charging stations must meet the Chinese standard gb/t, while the European CCS standard and the Japanese chademo standard are listed as options. The report points out that China is the world's largest producer of electric vehicles, so 70% of Russian electric vehicles will use Chinese charging stations in the next few years.
In the middle of last month, some media reported that the shortage of electronic components and severe Western sanctions had brought the Russian automobile industry back to the late 1980s.
Russian officials now allow local automobile manufacturers to ignore the emission standards and can no longer equip their vehicles with airbag, esp, ABS and other important safety kits or even seat belt pretensioners. The relaxation of these production standards will continue until February 1, 2023**
It is reported that before the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Russia only allowed the circulation of vehicles whose emissions reached Euro 5 or above. However, as Bosch and other companies suspended the delivery of engine management system and other components, it became extremely difficult to adjust the emission level.
Moscow mayor Sergey sobyanin previously said that the government would re produce Moskvich brand passenger cars in the former Soviet era.
"We will use the euro 0 standard, just like in World War II, with gasoline cars, that is, firewood." Because petroleum fuels are used in the army, civilians have to use wood gasifiers.
In addition, for consumers, the safety performance of new cars lacking ESP, ABS, safety bags and seat belt pretensioners is greatly reduced under the current vehicle speed and road standards, and some consumers may choose to postpone the purchase of new cars or used cars.
