Tightening Global Policies Drive Industry Shuffling, Compliance Becomes a Must for Chinese Enterprises to Go Global
In 2025, the construction of policies and standard systems in the global electric tricycle industry accelerated. Countries around the world have tightened safety technical standards, environmental regulations, and road right management policies, driving industry shuffling and putting forward higher compliance requirements for Chinese enterprises to go global. In China, the "New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2021-2035)" continues to promote the standardized management of low-speed electric vehicles. Many regions have issued local standards, requiring vehicles to have compliance qualifications, registration, and mandatory insurance, accelerating the elimination of small, medium, and scattered enterprises and raising the overall technical threshold of the industry.
In overseas markets, compliance requirements are stricter. The EU's Circular Economy Act, which took effect in 2025, raises the battery recycling rate requirement to 85% and requires a 12% reduction in vehicle carbon emissions; Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia and Vietnam have their own technical standards, such as Indonesia's SNI certification and Vietnam's CR certification, which have clear requirements for vehicle design speed, motor power, load capacity, etc. Practice from Zhengzhou Customs shows that enterprises can effectively avoid trade risks by aligning with overseas standards and adjusting product design and production processes. For example, under the guidance of the customs, Henan Loncin Motorcycle Co., Ltd. successfully expanded its market from Africa to Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and Central and Eastern Europe after obtaining Indonesia's SNI certification and Vietnam's CR certification, with a significant increase in export value. Industry experts emphasize that compliance has become a must for Chinese auto tricycle enterprises to go global. Enterprises need to strengthen the research on overseas policies and do a good job in standard alignment in advance to gain a firm foothold in the global market competition
