flag China’s electric heavy trucks surged to 22% of new sales in 2025, outpacing diesel and LNG models, driven by incentives and infrastructure.

flag China is rapidly replacing diesel trucks with electric models, with electric heavy trucks making up 22% of new sales in the first half of 2025—up from 9.2% in 2024—driven by government incentives, falling battery costs, and expanding charging and battery-swapping infrastructure. flag This shift has led to a decline in diesel use, with consumption dropping 11% year-on-year in June 2024, and is reducing China’s oil demand by over a million barrels per day. flag Electric trucks now outsell LNG-powered models, and forecasts predict they could account for nearly 46% of new sales in 2025 and 60% in 2026, potentially limiting global LNG demand growth despite China’s continued LNG imports.
