Behind the growth of BYD's performance is closely related to the steady increase in its sales. On April 26, according to the statistical analysis of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in the first quarter of 2022, the top ten enterprises (groups) in terms of automobile sales sold a total of 5.586 million units, accounting for 85.8% of the total automobile sales. Among them, BYD's sales growth rate is the most obvious year-on-year, GAC and Chery also show rapid growth, SAIC, Dongfeng and Changan growth rate is slightly lower, and other companies have declined.

In terms of the new energy vehicle market, affected by the price increase, the order performance before the price increase is hot, and the overall order is sufficient. Overall, although the domestic epidemic still has local sporadic cases, especially in megacities such as Shenzhen and Shanghai, the relatively mild epidemic prevention measures in most areas at that time had no obvious impact on residents' travel and car purchase consumption, which promoted the sales of new energy vehicles.
