On March 24, 2025, the first South Asian new energy vehicle train arrived in Shigatse, Tibet, marking an important step in the field of international trade and environmental sustainability. The train departed from Zhengzhou, Henan on March 17, fully loaded with 150 new energy vehicles with a total value of more than 25 million yuan. After clearing customs at the Shigatse International Land Port, the vehicles will be transported to Nepal by road through the Zhangmu Port. This not only marks a critical moment in China-Nepal trade, but also highlights the growing recognition of the role of new energy vehicles as a catalyst for regional economic development and environmental sustainability.
Promoting growth and green transport
The entry of new energy vehicles into the South Asian market is expected to boost the economic development of Shigatse and surrounding areas. Li Chun, head of the Port Management Section of the Shigatse Municipal Bureau of Commerce, said that in 2024, Jilong Port and Zhangmu Port will export 11,000 new energy vehicles. The influx of new energy vehicles will not only improve the local industrial structure, but also drive the development of related industries, create jobs and boost the economy.
In addition, the popularization of new energy vehicles is also in line with the global trend of sustainable development. By reducing carbon emissions and promoting green transportation, this initiative will help improve the environmental quality of the region. The South Asia Express is an important link in promoting the transition to cleaner modes of transportation, thereby improving the overall quality of life of South Asian residents.
Strengthening trade facilitation and regional cooperation
The opening of the South Asia Express is a major step forward in trade facilitation, providing a more convenient logistics channel for South Asian countries. Compared with traditional road transportation, rail transportation is more efficient and less costly, which will ultimately improve the logistics efficiency of new energy vehicles and shorten transportation time. This is of great significance for promoting the circulation of goods in the region, thereby improving trade efficiency and promoting economic cooperation among South Asian countries.
In addition, the introduction of new energy vehicles is expected to strengthen regional cooperation and integration. By learning from China’s experience and technology in the field of new energy vehicles, South Asian countries can improve their market competitiveness and promote economic diversification. Cooperation in this field not only enhances mutual trust among countries, but also paves the way for technological exchanges that promote industrial upgrading and progress.
Call for action: Embrace China’s new energy vehicles
As the international community increasingly recognizes the importance of new energy vehicles, individuals and businesses must consider the benefits of adopting these innovative solutions. Promoting new energy vehicles is not only an environmental imperative, but also an economic opportunity that can improve competitiveness in the global market. By investing in Chinese new energy vehicles, consumers can contribute to a sustainable future while also benefiting from the advanced technology and infrastructure that these vehicles bring.
In conclusion, the arrival of the first South Asian new energy vehicle train in Shigatse marks an important step towards strengthening international cooperation and promoting sustainable development. As we move forward, all stakeholders must recognize the potential of new energy vehicles in driving economic growth, enhancing trade facilitation and improving environmental quality. We call on everyone to seize this opportunity, invest in China’s new energy vehicles, and contribute to a greener and more sustainable future for all.
