Affected by the dual impact of chip shortage and the Spring Festival holiday, the domestic car market in February was not optimistic, and car companies were not as active as in the past when announcing sales, but with the announcement of the domestic car retail sales ranking in February by the Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the actual performance of major car companies in February was finally made public.
According to data provided by the Federation of Passenger Vehicles, the domestic narrow passenger car market sold 1.250 million units in February this year, although achieving a year-on-year increase of 4.5%, but it plunged by 39.9% from January. However, in the new energy market, sales of new energy vehicles reached 273,000 units in February, a year-on-year increase of 180.9%, still continuing the strong performance.
BYD surpassed Volkswagen for the first time and became the new leader of its own brand
Specifically, according to the sales ranking of automobile manufacturers in February provided by the Association of Automobile Manufacturers, it can be found that it is still FAW-Volkswagen that won the sales championship, and 104,940 new cars were sold in February, but saic-Volkswagen's performance was not so good, and sales were surpassed by BYD for the first time.
In February, BYD's sales reached 89,102 vehicles, surpassing SAIC Volkswagen in one fell swoop, second only to FAW-Volkswagen to win the runner-up, and also the highest sales of its own brands in February, which is definitely a historic moment for BYD.
In addition, in the top 15 sales of automobile manufacturers in February, most car companies' sales have been affected by different degrees of year-on-year decline, but in addition to BYD, FAW Toyota, Dongfeng Honda, GAC Toyota, GAC Honda and Chery Automobile have achieved year-on-year growth under the cold car market, which further shows that the influence and recognition of Japanese cars in China are still steadily improving.
In short, after entering 2022, the overall environment of the domestic car market is still the main theme of sales decline, which is bound to lead to unprecedented competition between car companies. In the stock era, new energy vehicles will be the outlet of the next era.
The car market is still a familiar face
Specific to each market segment, although the sales performance of the mainstream models in the car market is not eye-catching, the car sales in February only sold 28,519 new cars, not to mention other cars. However, in the top 15 of the february car sales ranking of the Association, it can be found that it is still a familiar face and has not killed a dark horse.
However, it is worth mentioning that the gap between BYD Qin and Xuanyi in February has been pulled very small, and the difference between the two is only about 4,000 vehicles, which has great potential to end the myth of Xuanyi's consecutive years of sales.
In the B-class sedan market, the best performer is still the Camry, with sales reaching 14,228 units. It is worth mentioning that the four best-selling models in the B-class sedan market are all from Japanese brands, followed by Camry, Asian Dragon and Tianlai, and the German and American B-class cars are still a complete failure in February.
In the high-end car market, BMW still dominates the list, and the 3 Series became the only high-end car with sales of more than 10,000 units in February, with sales reaching 10,185 units, continuing the strong performance since last year, and the leader in the BBA has also changed from Mercedes-Benz to BMW.
BYD Song ended the myth of Haval H6 sales
Compared with the blandness of the sedan market, the pattern of the SUV market in February has changed greatly, among which the haval H6's sales crown position has changed again, and the BYD Song family has bucked the trend and successfully reached the top with a result of 24532 vehicles, which is also the first time that BYD Song's sales have surpassed the Haval H6.
In addition to BYD Song, Honda CR-V also surpassed the Haval H6 in February, and its sales volume is second only to BYD Song. In fact, last year, the Honda CR-V once surpassed the Haval H6 in single-month sales, which is so competitive for the CR-V that has entered the end of the product, and the strength is obvious.
In addition to the end of the Haval H6 sales crown status, Geely's SUV market in February was also hit hard, the star model Boyue did not even enter the SUV market sales ranking TOP15, and even BYD Tang's sales in February achieved more than 10,000 vehicles, which was a big surprise.
In the high-end SUV market, the best selling is the Tesla Model Y, here is not too much analysis of Tesla, in the country is completely the output is sales, the specific sales are also good and bad. The most surprising thing is the performance of Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes-Benz GRC in February sales successfully achieved the old rivals BMW X3 and Audi Q5 surpassed, reaching 9958 units, achieving a year-on-year increase of 16.4%, which also represents that Mercedes-Benz is gradually getting rid of the impact of lack of cores.
Write at the end:
In terms of the overall environment of the current domestic car market, fuel vehicles are unlikely to maintain rapid growth as in a year, coupled with the rise of new energy vehicles, the market share of fuel vehicles is declining year by year, which is the reason why BYD's sales continue to soar. Judging from the performance in February, BYD is only more than 10,000 vehicles away from FAW-Volkswagen, and when sales exceed FAW-Volkswagen, does it mean that its own brands have achieved overtaking of the joint venture brand?
