This paper studies the reverse channel in dynamic closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) system which consists of manufacturers and retailers. Based on the dynamic CLSC model, we research the decisions and profits of CLSC members in different reverse channels that consider the quantitative characteristic of products. The results show that the optimal collection decisions for the given quantitative characteristic of products are diverse in different development levels of CLSC. Furthermore, we propose a transfer payment coordination mechanism based on Nash bargaining model to address the objective inconsistency between CLSC and its members. Moreover, we carry out the case study using the statistical data of Chinese new energy vehicles (NEVs). We show the robustness of results through the sensitivity analysis and offer some suggestions for the government and NEV managers in China.
