With the improvement of the purchasing power of Chinese consumers, in many commodity fields, China can become a unique high-selling market, this time new energy vehicles are no exception, how strong is China's consumption of new energy vehicles?
On January 12 this year, a set of data was released in China, and it was concluded that China's new energy vehicles have won the title of the world's first sales volume for seven consecutive years.
From the specific data, in 2021, the cumulative sales of 3.521 million new energy vehicles of various brands in China increased by 1.6 times compared with 2020, and it was also the seventh year to become the world's new energy vehicle sales champion.
At the same time, on January 11, The domestic statistics on the new energy vehicle market in December 2021 found that the monthly sales reached 475,000 units, and even the annual sales data broke through the sales record of China's new energy vehicles.
In recent years, in order to promote the concept of low carbon emissions, China has continuously supported the new energy industry, especially new energy vehicles, and enjoys various domestic subsidies all year round.
Therefore, the overall price of new energy vehicles is not particularly high, and consumers will give priority to such cars when buying cars.
Friends who are more concerned about cars may ask, throughout 2021, which car brands are performing well?
From the perspective of brand segmentation, the highest sales volume in the whole year is undoubtedly Tesla from the United States, although it has experienced some public opinion criticism and traffic accidents, but it still does not hinder the pursuit of the brand by Chinese car owners.
In 2021 alone in the Chinese market, Tesla's Shanghai factory will sell 484,000 units, accounting for 51.7% of its total global sales.
Of course, there are also exports from Chinese factories to foreign countries, excluding this part, Tesla's annual sales in China are about 320,000 units.
In the global market, Tesla has accumulated sales of 936,000 units, ranking first in the world, and even surpassing BYD's 330,000 units.
It is worth mentioning that although Tesla is very strong, it was defeated by BYD in December 2021, when Tesla sales were 70,800 units, while BYD's monthly sales totaled about 93,300 units, that is to say, in December, Tesla lagged behind BYD's sales of 22,000 units.
Tesla does not seem to be convinced, on January 11 this year, Tesla publicly said that this year's production capacity will exceed 1.5 million units, and this data exceeded BYD's New Year's target of 300,000 units.
Although Tesla has attracted much attention in the Chinese market, its future development direction is indeed not easy to predict, because there are more and more new energy car manufacturing forces from China.
Throughout 2021, the rise of the three giants of new energy car manufacturing is obvious, Weilai reached 91,400 units, Xiaopeng about 98,000 units, although the ideal is the least, but there are also 90,400 units.
It can be said that the sales data of these 3 major brands has begun to catch up, and there is a trend of breaking through 100,000 units.
This is a domestic first-line car brand, and the second-line car brand is not lagging behind, Nezha car sales reached 69,600 units, WM motor 44,100 units.
And it is worth mentioning that SAIC-GM-Wuling has also risen strongly, and a mini small electric vehicle released by it has exceeded 500,000 units in the first 11 months, which is the sales champion of a single model of new energy vehicles in China.
Although this type of model is not the same as Tesla, this already indicates that Wuling Hongguang has a strong foundation for development in the field of electric vehicles, and it is not impossible to compete with Tesla, BYD and other car companies in the future.
Although the competition between various forces in the Chinese market is becoming increasingly fierce, changes in the domestic market in the future may greatly affect the current pattern.
On January 1 this year, for all electric vehicle companies in China, the subsidy was reduced by 30%, for 2 reasons, on the one hand, the scale of domestic new energy vehicles is becoming increasingly large, and there is no need to support through subsidies, so the intensity of subsidies will be slowly reduced.
On the other hand, many car companies are "cheating and supplementing" under the guise of car manufacturing, and this kind of behavior is also explicitly prohibited, so the strength of subsidies is constantly decreasing.
The same domestic clearly stated that it is expected to end the subsidy for new energy vehicles on December 31 this year, and it is not surprising that this year is the last year in which new energy vehicles can enjoy state subsidies.
Car companies that have lost subsidies are afraid that they will bear greater cost pressure, and the trend of car price increases in the future is more obvious.
At the beginning of this year, Tesla has begun to increase prices, followed by other car-making forces.
Do you have any different views on the sales data of new energy vehicles in China?
