In the past 2021, the Chinese auto market has undergone great changes, and the epidemic and lack of cores have almost lasted throughout the year. Moreover, the sales volume of new energy vehicles in China leads the global market. Therefore, the three major automotive markets of cars, SUVs and MPVs in the Chinese market in 2021 are also changing greatly.
So in this article, we'll take a closer look at what's changed.
[1] The best-selling models in the sedan market do not seem to have changed much, but in fact, they have changed greatly
The list of the traditional car market seems to have not changed much. The sales of Xuanyi, Langyi, Corolla, Bora, and Yinglang are still very high and ranked first. However, the overall sales of these best-selling models are declining, With Xuanyi sales down 5.1% year-on-year, Langyi sales down 3.8% year-on-year, Corolla sales down 7.5% year-on-year, Yinglang sales down 8.7% year-on-year, and Bora's sales down 27.2% year-on-year. This is all very serious market downturns. So it's clear that the traditional sedan market is shrinking.
At the same time, we can also find some individual new energy models, such as the Wuling Hongguang MINI EV sales rushed to the third place, although its best-selling is mainly due to low prices. But the sales were really good. There is also BYD Qin sales increased by 226.8% year-on-year, it seems that after the use of DM-i super hybrid technology, BYD ushered in a sales explosion.
In the traditional sedan, the only ones that still maintain positive sales growth are the BMW 3 Series and BMW 5 Series. So through this series of changes. We give a summary of the car market in 2021: the market for fuel sedans is shrinking, and sales are declining. Sales of new energy cars are growing rapidly. The luxury brand car is also the key consideration of users in the exchange and upgrading.
[2] The SUV market is still booming, and some new energy models have performed eye-catching
The SUV market as a whole still shows a very prosperous market state, and most of the best-selling SUVs have maintained good sales. Haval H6, Changan CS75, Honda CR-V are still very popular models for users. Although there are also some models with a decline in sales, the decline is not very obvious, and the biggest decline is Geely Boyue.
In this list mountain, the performance of new energy SUV models is still very eye-catching, of which the best performance is two models, one is BYD Song, which is mainly the strong support of new energy models. The other is the Tesla Model Y, which has sold more than 160,000 vehicles and is also very eye-catching. Even the sales once surpassed the best-selling models of Binzhi, Haoying, and Qashqai.
[3] The MPV market will usher in a bigger outbreak?
The MPV market in 2021 itself is very lively, and at the end of the year Toyota Syna, Kia Carnival, Hyundai Kustur and other models will be launched. By 2022, there will be more independent brand new energy MPV to the market, including WEY brand, Lantu brand and so on.
In the MPV market in 2021, although Wuling Hongguang is still the best-selling, but sales fell by 11% year-on-year, but relying on price advantages, no one can replace it in a short period of time. GL8 is still the king of high-end MPV, with sales of 160,000 vehicles, which is beyond the reach of other brands.
In addition to GL8, other brands of MPV seem to be to be a foil, although there are very good products, such as Odyssey, Alexand, Weiran, etc., but the sales gap with GL8 is too large.
The MPV of its own brands are looking for their own breakthroughs, the Trumpchi M8 is one of the best performers, and Capgemini is also a rare large-space model with a level of 100,000 yuan. In the MPV market in 2022, there will be more new energy MPV listings, and the market will be more prosperous at that time.
