During China's national holiday week, a significant shift occurred as electric vehicles (EVs) replaced traditional petrol cars, causing a notable drop in gasoline consumption. As millions embraced EVs for travel, gasoline use saw a 9% decrease compared to the previous year, indicative of a larger trend towards electric mobility and a decline in overall fuel demand within the country. With enhanced charging infrastructure and nearly half of new car sales comprising EVs and hybrids, this holiday marked a turning point in China's energy consumption patterns.
