Chip shortages, epidemics, and tight supply of raw materials have become the "three original sins" of the current automotive market, and almost no month can be perfectly avoided, but the degree of impact is different. Of course, the ultimate impact must be on the sales and interests of car companies, as well as the healthy development of the automotive industry economy.
Recently, the Association announced the latest sales in March, according to statistics, the total sales of passenger cars in the month was 1.579 million units, down 25.6% compared with the same period last year, but compared with February, it still increased by 25.6%.
Let's look at the manufacturer's retail sales specifically, there is no doubt that FAW-Volkswagen has once again defended its top position, although it has fallen by nearly 40% compared with the same period last year, but with the sales of 126131 vehicles and 8.0% market share, it is still the first place.
Millennium old two SAIC Volkswagen? This is already a matter of the last century, since BYD's "carp jumping dragon gate" surpassed SAIC Volkswagen's monthly sales, it has been out of control. As recently as March, Changan, Geely, BYD and GAC Toyota all surpassed SAIC Volkswagen's 78,018 vehicles, while SAIC Volkswagen could only rank sixth.
The light of domestic goods automobile brand has begun to rise again, is it not a joint venture car company? Changan and BYD are runners-up and runner-up respectively, and for BYD, it has completely stopped producing fuel models since March, and the transformation of new energy can be said to be the initial completion.
In addition, Great Wall Motors, Wuling Motors and GAC Trumpchi have appeared in the top 15, but Chery did not stand out. There is also Tesla China's sales data is very conspicuous, last month sold 65,754 new cars, up 85.3% year-on-year, although domestic models only Model 3 and Model Y, and the Shanghai factory is also temporarily suspended.
If the decline in sales of FAW-Volkswagen, SAIC-Volkswagen and SAIC-GM can be attributed to the epidemic factor, then Dongfeng Nissan will be minimally affected by the epidemic, mainly due to parts suppliers.
Written in the end: The current epidemic has brought more uncertainty to the automotive market that is already lacking cores, and the sales ranking of manufacturers in March has changed greatly, but it is not guaranteed that April will not change.
