Abstract

[Previous automobile studies by Chinese scholars focused mainly on three aspects. The first is technological advances. The second is the economic implications of the development of the industry, an issue the government, manufacturers, commercial service providers as well as consumers are all keenly interested in. The third aspect is the environment for automobile use, which has a lot to do with traffic. Whereas the automobile as a means of transportation has spatially transformed the country’s urban and rural landscape, it has become more and more of a source of stress for people and cities alike. Given the growing importance of automobiles and transportation in people’s daily life, the aforementioned three aspects would hardly suffice to present the whole picture.]
