In August, the sedan sales ranking was announced, with BYD Seagull winning the championship, and Lavida and Xuanyi entering the top three
Different from the August sales off-season in previous years, the August sales performance of this year's car market is quite good, especially according to the data of the Passenger Association of China, the retail sales volume of the domestic narrow passenger car market in August 2023 reached 1.92 million units, a year-on-year increase of 2.5%, and a month-on-month increase of 8.6%, setting the best sales performance in the same period in history, achieving both year-on-year and month-on-month sales growth, which is very difficult.
Of course, combined with the performance of the sedan segment, the performance of the sedan segment in August was more general, and the data showed that the retail sales of the domestic sedan market in August were 893,000 units, down 6.2% year-on-year, but increased month-on-month.
From the specific ranking, BYD Seagull ranked first, can be described as famous, as a small car, Seagull also replaced the position of the once Hongguang MINI, sales reached 34,841 units that month, the performance was very outstanding.
Volkswagen Lavida ranked second, as a fuel-powered model, sales reached 33,891 units that month, a year-on-year increase of 13.8%, which is honestly very good, especially in the current situation when the penetration rate of new energy vehicles continues to rise, and the share of fuel vehicles is encroaching on the north, Lavida's performance is good.
Nissan Xuanyi has been the first in the car sales list before the penetration rate of new energy vehicles climbed, but now the times have changed, and its sales performance is also facing certain pressure, but Rao is so, Xuanyi still shows Soviet Russia, according to the data of the Passenger Association, its sales in August reached 32,894 units, although it fell by 24.9% month-on-month, but it is still the third in the rankings.
BYD Qin PLUS DM-i sold 28,154 units in the month, a year-on-year increase of 26.6%, from the sales performance, the overall strength of Qin PLUS DM-i is still strong, especially with the rising penetration rate of new energy vehicles, its sales may still rise further in the future.
Honda Civic's sales this month reached 26,294 units, up 55.2% year-on-year, which is honestly somewhat unexpected, after all, fuel vehicles are facing more pressure than in the past, but the strong return of the Civic means that the fuel sedan market still has great potential.
In addition to the above five models, the top ten sedans are also Volkswagen Sagitar, GAC Aion S, BYD Dolphin, Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Passat and other models, of which Sagitar, Aion S, BYD Dolphin have achieved monthly sales of more than 20,000 units, Aion S sales increased by 93.9% year-on-year, the performance is very good, while BYD dolphin sales have declined, which is worth BYD's attention, as for Camry, sales in the month were 19,737 units, although it fell month-on-month, but still the highest-selling mid-size car.
In addition, Volkswagen Magotan , Toyota Corolla, Hongguang MINI EV, Audi A6L, Wuling Binguo and other models entered the top 15 sales list of the month, of which Hongguang MINIEV sales fell by 53.2% year-on-year, and its sales may be divided by Wuling Binguo and Seagull and other cars of the same class, you must know that Hongguang MINI EV has been the first sales before. In addition, Audi A6L sales reached 15,126 units in the month, making it the highest-selling luxury model in the month.
Written at the end:
From the sales performance in August, although new energy vehicles are still strong, traditional fuel vehicles also have a good performance, which means that the sales of the two in the future may be able to achieve a relatively balanced situation, of course, this does not mean that traditional manufacturers should slow down the speed of transformation to new energy vehicles. We will continue to pay attention to the future sales performance of the car market.
