1 min read
China will impose a 2% consumption tax on lithium-ion batteries from September 1, 2026, rising to 4% in 2027. Automakers that produce batteries in-house can avoid or deduct the tax, while those buying externally bear the cost. Sodium-ion and solid-state batteries are exempt through 2028.
