过去，拥有一辆私家车对大部分中国人而言是件奢侈的事。如今，私家车在中国随处可见。汽车成了人们生活中不可或缺的一部分，他们不仅开车上下班，还经常驾车出游。有些城市的汽车增长速度过快，以至于交通拥堵和停车位不足的问题日益严峻，这些城市的市政府不得不出台新规，限制上路汽车的数量。由于空气污染日益严重，现在越来越多的人选择购买新能源汽车，中国政府也采取了一些措施，支持新能源汽车的发展。

Owning a private car was a luxury thing for most Chinese people in the past, while private cars can be seen everywhere in China now. The car has become an indispensable part in people's life, and they not only drive to work, but also often travel by car. The growth of cars in some cities is so fast that the traffic jams and lack of parking space are becoming more and more serious. The municipal government of these cities had to develop some new rules to limit the number of cars on the road. Due to the increasingly serious air pollution, more and more people choose to buy new energy vehicles now, and the Chinese government has taken some measures to support the development of new energy vehicles.
