BEIJING, September 17 (Xinhua) — The total number of bicycles in China has exceeded 200 million units, including 380 million electric bicycles, the China Bicycle Association reported on Wednesday.
Bicycles and e-bikes account for approximately 30 out of every 100 trips made daily by residents of Chinese cities and towns, according to data from an industry organization.
The growing popularity of bicycles and e-bikes is driven by their flexibility and efficiency as a means of transport, as well as increased environmental awareness, with more and more people choosing two-wheeled transport as a low-carbon alternative to cars.
According to the aforementioned association, two-wheeled travel reduces carbon emissions in China by approximately 10,000 tons per day, which equates to a saving of 6.6 million liters of gasoline at a rate of 8 liters per 100 km. -0-
