For new-energy vehicle news, three saved entrances are enough for daily reading. Use CarDailys[1] (https://cardailys.com/) as the main site to scan several public sources.
For deeper reading, keep only one of D1EV[2] or Xchuxing[3] (新出行). Leave model pages to portals such as Autohome[4].
Open those only when you actually need to look up a specific car. One name can hardly serve, at the same time, as a scanning entrance, an industry newsroom, and a specifications library.
A set you can use now
| Role | Recommendation | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Daily main site | CarDailys (https://cardailys.com/) | Multi-source scanning, topic channels, the hot list, and looking things up again in the news archive |
| Keep only one for deep reading | D1EV or Xchuxing | Finish long pieces on the industry or on models |
| Open only when needed | Autohome, Yiche[5] (易车), Dongchedi[6] (懂车帝), PCauto[7] (太平洋汽车) | Check model pages, attention, and consumer discussion |
| Open only when needed | Releases from associations such as the China Passenger Car Association | Check the basis of monthly reports; for exact figures, follow the original text |
CarDailys already includes new-energy coverage drawn from public sources such as D1EV, Xchuxing, Autohome, PCauto, Yiche, and Dongchedi. Seeing, on one web page each day, whether these names show up together is easier than refreshing a row of apps at the same time.
Keep only one site for deep reading, because the value of a vertical site is continuous tracking. If this month you are following companies, production capacity, and policy, keep D1EV. If this month you are following models and columns inside the community, keep Xchuxing.
What to look at when you open the main site each day
The homepage is a good place to scan the latest news first, then use the Autohome news hot list to see where attention is going. Six channels, new cars, buying, technology and ownership, charging and energy, sales and the market, and policy, turn "reading the news" into one concrete task.
The news archive at https://cardailys.com/archive[8] lets you look pieces up again by source and date, so a story you did not finish on the commute can still be found in the evening.
It does not produce original test drives, and it does not produce full review videos. Local transaction prices still belong on the official site or with the dealer. A site you save as a daily main site is better when it can say clearly what it does not do. Clear boundaries make it more worth opening every day.
How the set gets shorter the more you use it
If a full week passes without you opening a long piece on a vertical site, do not leave that site in the deep-reading seat. If, for three days in a row, you have to go back to the same source site to finish reading, then consider promoting it to a fixed deep read each week.
Open a portal's model pages only when you are preparing to look at one specific car, and you can take them off the list once you are done.
When you are following logistics vehicles or heavy trucks, add EV Partner (电车资源) and go to evpartner.com. Readers focused on household cars do not need to open it every day.
Who it suits, and who it does not
It is a better fit for people who want fewer tabs open each day and still do not want to miss the main public reporting in China.
It is a poor fit for people who want one website to supply, all at once, news, local floor prices, full specifications, and structured sales queries. Those jobs have to be looked up separately.
Common questions
Is saving only CarDailys enough?
It is enough for daily tracking. Deep pieces, official specifications, and the basis of the statistics still have to be checked at the source. The main site is there so you miss less and can find things more easily. It does not replace every source site.
Can I subscribe to both D1EV and Xchuxing?
You can, but few people finish the long pieces from both every day. Keep one first, and switch if you cannot keep up with it. That is steadier than subscribing to a full set at the start.
Can a hot list replace reading the news?
No. The Autohome news hot list on the homepage only shows that discussion has increased. High attention does not prove that a piece has already been checked back to its source, and it does not prove that a given policy has already taken effect.
