Since the opening of the national two-child policy, the always tepid MPV market has risen in popularity, especially this year, and there are heavy MPV such as Xena, the fourth generation of Jiahua, and Kusitu listed in China, which has directly intensified the competition in the MPV market.
However, from the perspective of actual sales, the MPV market has not met the expectations of the outside world. According to the data provided by the Association, in November, the MPV market only sold 84,000 new cars, a sharp decline of 24.8% year-on-year, while the overall decline of the domestic car market in November was 12.7%, and the MPV market fell much higher than the market average.
In addition, among the three blockbuster MPVs listed this year, in addition to Toyota Syna, the other two are thunderous and rainy, especially Kia's fourth-generation Jawa, from the beginning of the listing to claim to have won 30,000 orders, to the specific sales of only a few hundred per month, becoming the biggest joke in the car circle. At the same time, the traditional giants of the MPV market, Wuling Hongguang and Buick GL8, also suffered different degrees of year-on-year decline in sales in November, of which Wuling Hongguang fell by 32.5%, and Buick GL8 fell by 28% year-on-year, directly reducing the sales volume of the entire MPV market.
Although the overall performance of the MPV market is not good, there are also three MPV that have achieved a counter-trend rise in November, and today we will take a look at where these three MPV are sacred.
Trumpchi M8
There is a saying in the car circle, "I know that the rich people who buy toyota Alpha are rich, but you never know how rich you are to buy Trumpchi M8", which is also the recognition of Trumpchi M8 by the outside world. As one of the few high-end MPV among independent brands, Trumpchi M8 can be said to have supported the façade of independent brands in the MPV market.
In November, the sales volume of trumpchi M8 reached 7118 units, a year-on-year increase of 49.9%, and what is more surprising is that the cumulative sales of trumpchi M8 from January to November reached 64772 units, a year-on-year surge of 124.2%, and sales were second only to Wuling Hongguang and Buick GL8.
In terms of price, the price range of Trumpchi M8 is 179,800-36.98 million yuan, which has a considerable price overlap with Buick GL8, but there are still many people who abandon Buick GL8 to choose Trumpchi M8, which also fully confirms consumer recognition of Trumpchi M8.
As a medium and large MPV, Trumpchi M8 has reached 5089mm in length, and the wheelbase has reached 3000mm, which fully guarantees the large space in the car, and the Trumpchi M8 also has a four-seater model to choose from, and its interior is also at any cost, and the comfort is definitely the best one in the same price.
In terms of power, the Trumpchi M8 is equipped with a 2.0T engine, with a maximum horsepower of 252Ps and a maximum torque of 390N·m, and the whole series is equipped with an 8AT gearbox as standard. In terms of powertrain, it has more advantages over the Buick GL8, which is also a 2.0T engine.
Honda Ellison
As a blockbuster of Dongfeng Honda in the domestic MPV market, Although the sales volume of Alex has not reached the height of the Buick GL8 since entering China, it has also had a good market performance. In November, Alexon sold 5,296 units, up 18.6% year-on-year, ranking fourth in the November MPV sales chart.
Different from the Buick GL8 positioning business travel, Alishen is a more inclined to the family MPV, although the price of the vehicle is as high as 29.48-32.88 million yuan, but with the blessing of Honda's i-MMD hybrid system, Airis has a unique advantage in the MPV market, after all, the domestic hybrid MPV model choice is not much.
Since it is hybrid, then the power is definitely the biggest highlight of Alexandre. In terms of power, the whole series of Alexand is composed of a 2.0L engine and motor, and the comprehensive power of the whole hybrid system is 158kW, matching the E-CVT induction gearbox, and its comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 5.9L, which is more fuel-efficient than many A-class cars.
At the same time, because it is a 2.0L self-priming engine, Alisson should be more smooth in the specific driving experience, without the frustration of the turbo engine, which is the essence of the MPV. For MPV, if there is no comfortable driving experience, it is obviously impossible to impress domestic consumers with a large space alone.
Trumpchi M6
Although in the car and SUV market, GAC Trumpchi does not have the confidence or the qualification to say that he is an "independent brother", in the MPV market, no independent brand can do trumpchi so good (except for Wuling Hongguang).
In addition to the Trumpchi M8, the performance of the little brother Trumpchi M6 in November is also not to be underestimated, with 4335 new cars sold, although it is only a 4.5% year-on-year increase, but in the context of the 24.8% year-on-year decline in the entire MPV market, it has been a success to achieve a year-on-year increase of 4.5%.
As a younger brother who is positioned lower by Trumpchi M8, Trumpchi M6 is not as high as Trumpchi M8 in terms of price, and the price range of new cars is 10.98-15.98 million yuan, which is close to the people and can meet the travel of more consumers. In addition, in terms of size, although the Trumpchi M6 is a compact MPV, the length of the car has reached 4780mm, the wheelbase is 2810mm, and it adopts a seven-seat layout.
It is worth mentioning that in the design of the Qiqi M6, it does not use the side sliding door design that MPV usually has, but adopts the same door opening and closing method as the SUV, which also makes the whole vehicle more like an SUV in visual effects than a pure MPV.
Write at the end:
The above three MPV models are boutique models that did not drop in sales in November, and it is not easy to achieve such results in November when the MPV market is backed by a decline. For the future MPV market, the author is also very much looking forward to the performance of Xena, after all, Xena has now been speculated to a price increase of 60,000 to buy, whether it can pull the Buick GL8 off the altar is also the common expectation of the outside world for Xena.
