摘要
This study investigates the pass-through and distributional effects of electric vehicle (EV) subsidies in China. It evaluates how these effects affect market equilibrium and welfare. Empirical results indicate that EV subsidy pass-through to consumers is more-than-complete, disproportionately favoring high-income individuals. Additionally, we introduce an equitable subsidy model that prioritizes innovation while being progressive in the sense that it redistributes resources toward low-income households. A surprising finding is that this alternative scheme reduces consumer surplus, as producers exploit its progressive structure, transferring gains. Despite enhancing EV adoption and welfare (excluding externalities), the progressive design of subsidies transfers consumer surplus to producers.
