摘要

This paper investigates changes in the composition of new vehicle fleets after Beijing in 2011 implemented a vehicle lottery system (VLS). We find that the VLS increased purchases of cars that are heavier, have larger engines, and are less fuel-efficient. We highlight that the change was associated with a greater reduction in the retail price of luxury cars after the VLS. Given that the decrease in the overall fuel efficiency of the new fleet may partially offset the policy goal of emission elimination, we propose a a progressive consumption tax—that could save gas consumption by 48,822,607 liters a year while achieving the same target of controlling vehicle growth.
