In recent years, Changzhou City has leveraged its traditional strengths in manufacturing to accelerate the clustering of electric two-wheeler manufacturers and their component suppliers, aiming at development of more smart and high-end products.

The city now accounts for about 10 percent of China's output of electric two-wheelers and has established a complete industrial chain spanning from parts to general assembly.

Changzhou has also actively reinforced the technological innovation as the main driver of the industry, as local makers keep boosting R&D efforts to further improve their products. (Xinhua/Li Bo)
