The 2024 Beijing International Auto Show with the theme of "new era and new cars" was held in Beijing China International Exhibition Center. Li Qiang came to the exhibition hall, visited the exhibition areas of many automobile brands, such as Dongfeng, BYD, Zhiji, Jiyue, BMW, Geely, Xiaomi, Celis, Xiaopeng, etc., inspected the exhibition models and technology display, communicated with the responsible persons of relevant enterprises, and inquired about research and development, production, sales, etc. in detail.
Li Qiang said that he was very encouraged by the auto show. China's smart connected new energy vehicles have a strong development momentum. In particular, relying on a complete industrial system and continuous innovation investment, they have formed a leading edge in market competition and open cooperation. We should continue to work hard to maintain and develop this advantage. He pointed out that today's automobile products are very different from the past. They are no longer a simple means of transportation, but a composite system of comprehensive application of various technologies. The intelligent connected new energy vehicle can be called a "large terminal" integrating many technologies such as machinery, electronics, computing, perception, audio-visual, energy storage, etc. It has become the main direction of the transformation and upgrading of the automobile industry, and has a very broad development prospect. It is hoped that the majority of automobile enterprises will take innovation as the driving force, demand as the guidance, and quality as the foundation to speed up the research on key core technologies, strengthen industrial chain coordination, and improve the level of intelligent manufacturing. At the same time, they will strengthen the layout of forward-looking technology research and development, promote the continuous improvement and upgrading of the automobile industry, and make positive contributions to the global green and low-carbon transformation.

Li Qiang stressed that the current Chinese and global new energy vehicle markets are growing continuously, with huge demand space. To a certain extent, intelligent connected new energy vehicles are also the product of global industrial cooperation, and future development requires all parties to play their advantages and deepen division of labor and cooperation. China will further promote the construction of a unified national market, expand high-level opening up, continue to relax market access, promote trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, treat domestic and foreign enterprises equally, promote more extensive exchanges and cooperation between Chinese and foreign auto enterprises in capital, technology, management, talent and other aspects, and share market opportunities in China, In the process of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, we should develop together and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.
Li Qiang pointed out that China is currently carrying out a new round of large-scale equipment renewal and consumer goods trade in. We should give better play to the leading role of the automobile industry in expanding investment and promoting consumption, and let more high-quality automobile products enter the lives of residents. We should implement the policy of supporting purchase and use, accelerate the construction of charging infrastructure network system, take multiple measures to optimize the consumption environment, stimulate consumption enthusiasm, and release the consumption potential of cars and other bulk commodities to a greater extent.
