The allocation for new energy vehicles includes 58,400 permits for households, 14,600 for individuals, 4,000 for business organizations, and 3,000 for commercial operators. Household, individual, and organizational permits will be allocated on May 26, while commercial operator permits will be assigned later in the year based on industry applications.
To cater to households without vehicles and promote the adoption of new energy vehicles, Beijing will issue an additional 40,000 permits exclusively to car-free households. These households will be determined based on score ranking within the Beijing Passenger Vehicle Quota Management Information System, with qualifying households announced on May 26.
After the regular allotment of household new energy vehicle permits, the remaining permits will be issued to the top 40,000 car-free households based on total scores. Priority will be given to applicants with the earliest registration time on the system. Qualifying households will undergo verification by relevant authorities, with details to be released on May 26, 2025.
Beijing’s transportation authorities are committed to prioritizing public transit by enhancing the integrated transportation system. This includes rail transit, surface buses, and various modes of transport to improve public transit quality, refine traffic management, promote green travel, and alleviate urban congestion for smooth commutes.
