MIIT and Four Other Departments: Launch 2026 NEV Promotion Campaign in Rural Areas
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), the Ministry of Commerce, together with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, and the National Energy Administration will organize and launch the 2026 NEV promotion campaign in rural areas. The notice proposes to further advance vehicle trade-in initiatives into rural areas. During the NEV promotion campaign, a trade-in section will be established, where publicity and promotion of subsidy policies will be carried out, and one-stop services such as old vehicle detection, assessment, and recycling, as well as assistance with subsidy application procedures, will be provided, to further enhance the visibility and coverage of preferential policies and facilitate rural consumers' participation in and enjoyment of the subsidies. All rural consumers who trade in for NEVs may apply for the vehicle trade-in subsidy in accordance with policy requirements, without restrictions on the number of subsidy qualifications.
