2022 new year has begun, now looking back at the auto market in 2021, many aspects have quietly undergone great changes, such as when many car companies are still plagued by the problem of "lack of core", BYD relies on its own technical strength, not only can produce its own chips, but also the technical reserves on new energy, etc., 2021 has been marching all the way, and in December it handed over an excellent report card.
On January 3, BYD released its sales in December 2021 early, and the sales volume of the passenger car series was 97,990 units, an increase of 77.9% year-on-year, of which the sales of new energy models were 92,823 units, up 236.4% year-on-year, which is after November, the sales volume exceeded 90,000 vehicles again, and it is not easy to achieve such sales results in the current automotive industry environment.
In fact, when the sales volume in December was announced, BYD's sales in 2021 can be easily calculated, the annual sales of passenger cars were 730093, an increase of 75.4% year-on-year, of which the sales of new energy models were 593745, an increase of 231.6% year-on-year, which has refreshed a number of records and become the vane of the entire new energy automobile industry. And what is valuable is that the annual EV version model sales of 320810 vehicles, DM version for the 272935, combined with the model, to achieve balanced development, so there is no short board to speak of.
Many models work together, and there are many highlights
In terms of specific models, there are many models with bright sales in December, including Han, Qin PLUS, Song PLUS, Yuan, Dolphin and so on. Han as a representative model of domestic medium and large sedans, relying on its own performance, configuration, workmanship and other outstanding performance, quickly recognized by consumers, December sales of 13701 vehicles, with reference to the November sales ranking, not surprisingly, Han will once again break the BBA iron triangle camp in the field of medium and large cars, into the top three of this level of sales rankings. Among them, it is worth noting that the sales volume of the pure electric EV version is 10301, and the achievement of breaking 10,000 not only represents the recognition of Han by the majority of consumers, but also shows that consumers' acceptance of new energy models has increased significantly.
Qin PLUS DM-i as the first model of super hybrid, from the beginning of the release to the present, because there are many advantages, such as pure electric endurance, strong power, ultra-low feed fuel consumption, rich configuration, excellent workmanship materials, etc., has always had a high degree of heat, December sales of 17286 vehicles, while the pure electric EV version also sold 7001 vehicles, the continuous power of these two versions also made the entire Qin family sales in December reached 25943 vehicles, It is currently a heavy and well-deserved model of its own brand compact sedan.
Speaking of Qin PLUS DM-i, I have to mention Song PLUS-DMi, which is a comprehensive competitive SUV model, but also the main model of the BYD Song family, the sales of the entire Song family in December were 22386 vehicles, of which the DM version sold 15120 vehicles, an increase of 1650% year-on-year, which is the best explanation for the comprehensive strength of the vehicle, not only has the advantages of super hybrid pure electric endurance, power, fuel consumption, etc., or the more popular SUV models on the market now. It has become the best choice for the same price that wants to buy both hybrids and SUVs.
In December, the sales volume of the entire Tang family was 9,000 vehicles, of which the sales of the DM version increased by 150.9% year-on-year, as an old model that has been galloping in the market for many years, Tang has now gained a foothold in the price level of 20W+, with annual sales reaching 54,204 vehicles. Strong performance is the first impression of many consumers, but with the development of many years, Tang not only has performance, but also has made great progress in intelligence, comfort, reliability and other aspects, and has become a representative of new energy models.
Compared with the above models, the BYD Yuan family may seem a little obscure, but it is such a low-key model, 2021 throughout the year also has 41402 units of sales, December sales of 8577 vehicles, an increase of up to 707.6%, for the future is also a model with considerable potential, and the Yuan PLUS has been listed, has received the attention of many consumers, I believe that with the addition of the Yuan PLUS, by the BYD Yuan family sales will definitely go further.
Introducing the Dynasty series, and then looking at BYD's ocean series, Dolphin is the first model under bydirecta e platform 3.0, and it is also the current representative model, with sales exceeding 10,000 in December, 10,016 vehicles, the models listed in August, and the cumulative sales volume of 5 months by the end of the year was 29598 vehicles, which has greatly exceeded the expectations of many people. Dolphin perfectly embodied the concept of safety, endurance, intelligence and design, so it was quickly recognized by consumers after its listing, and achieved sales of nearly 30,000 vehicles in just a few months.
Sales growth will continue
The reason why BYD can achieve today's success is not accidental, this is the result of years of persistent efforts and long-term layout, BYD has been adhering to independent research and development, taking the lead in the industry to make a number of breakthroughs, such as the first domestic turbo engine, the first domestic dual-clutch transmission, etc., in the face of foreign monopolies in some technologies, they have developed brake systems, ESP body stability systems and so on. BYD has long been laying out the new energy field, and is currently the only company in the world that has mastered the three core technologies of new energy at the same time: motor, battery and electronic control. Although BYD's sales in 2021 have increased across the board, but looking forward to 2022, the growth will continue, with the song Pro DM-i, Han DM-i, destroyer 05 and other models on the market, the further development of the dynasty and the ocean two series, will also further enhance the overall sales in the future.
