Abstract
This study examines the electric vehicle (EV) industry's impact on sustainable economic growth (SEG). Using the entropy weight method, it evaluates the EV industry's development and SEG levels. A coupling coordination degree model measures their interaction. Results show a positive trend in both areas, with charging infrastructure expansion and foreign investments being key drivers. The study finds a progressive shift from imbalance to high-quality coordination between the EV industry and SEG, highlighting their increasingly synergistic relationship. This growth in the EV industry fosters technological innovation and drives green advancements throughout the industry chain, thereby enhancing SEG.
本研究探讨了电动汽车（EV）产业对可持续经济增长（SEG）的影响。研究采用熵权法评估了电动汽车产业的发展和 SEG 水平。耦合协调度模型衡量了它们之间的相互作用。结果显示，这两个领域都呈现出积极趋势，充电基础设施的扩张和外国投资是主要驱动力。研究发现，电动汽车产业和 SEG 之间的协调正逐步从失衡向高质量转变，凸显了它们之间日益增强的协同关系。电动汽车行业的增长促进了技术创新，推动了整个产业链的绿色进步，从而加强了 SEG。
