Abstract: This research has studied how Chinese government subsidy programs affect EV sales throughout the years spanning from 2016 to 2023. The paper evaluates the connection between EV adoption rate increases and yearly public sector financial assistance through descriptive methods and data visualization. The time-based analysis demonstrates that EV sales increased rapidly when government subsidies grew stronger, validating the theoretical framework about subsidies promoting electric vehicle acceptance rates. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) have taken the leading role in the electric vehicle market, which shows that buying preferences meet government policy objectives. The analyzed data suggests that after 2023, economic connections between government subsidy initiatives and EV market performance may be diminished. Research results demonstrate that subsidies drive market development in its initial phases, but policymakers should transition to long-term sustainable policies. Current market statistical data demonstrates constant BEV dominance, demonstrating the public interest in zero-emission transportation systems. The decreasing government support during 2023 failed to inhibit the continuing growth of EV sales, showing that the market was transitioning toward self-fuelled expansion rather than external incentives.
