The data shows that Xiaokang shares sold 20,040 vehicles in April, down 17.76% year-on-year, down 16.55% month-on-month, in line with the general trend of the market; the cumulative sales of 79,972 vehicles in January and April, down 4.22% year-on-year, the overall performance of Xiaokang is not as good as last year. However, the Xilis brand has obviously improved, and it is only 728 vehicles away from the ideal.
Among them, the sales of new energy vehicles were 8552 units, an increase of 187.56% year-on-year, an increase of 14.78% month-on-month; the cumulative sales of new energy vehicles from January to April were 22752 units, an increase of 199.64% year-on-year. Since the beginning of this year, new energy vehicles have entered the fast lane, with an average monthly sales volume of more than 5,000 vehicles, compared with more than 3,000 vehicles last year, and the AITO brand driving effect has achieved initial results.
It is worth mentioning that the Sales of the Xilis brand in April was 3439 vehicles, an increase of 1248.63% year-on-year and an increase of 8.83% month-on-month. From January to April, the cumulative sales volume was 8483 units, an increase of 1211.13% year-on-year. However, Xiaokang did not disclose in detail the sales volume of specific models of Xilix. However, since January this year, the Sf5 has been basically in a state of suspension of production and suspension, so the sales of Cyrus can be understood as the sales of the AITO brand to ask the M5 sales.
The new car-making forces have released April sales, all of which have declined month-on-month, and aito sales are not in the top ranks, but they are only 728 units behind the ideal car sales in April, as a new brand that has just begun to deliver for two months, it is still in the climbing period, and the room for growth is still not small.
According to the data, in December 2021, Huawei and Xilis released the AITO brand, and the biggest highlight is that Huawei's mark is more obvious, and the M5 of the Q&C is unveiled simultaneously. Since March 5 this year, the M5 has been delivered, and AITO has laid out sales and service outlets including more than 500 experience centers and 150 user centers.
Since March, Xiaokang has listed the sales of the Xilis brand alone, and has exceeded 3,000 vehicles for two consecutive months, which is significantly better than last year's Xilis SF5. According to the data of the Association, from April to December 2021, the total number of Cyrus SF5s was 8169, an average of less than 1,000 vehicles per month. However, there is still a long way to go before Yu Chengdong's goal of selling 300,000 vehicles a year.
With the M5 on the market, subsequent models are already in the planning. From an investor relations activity record sheet announcement released by Xiaokang shares on March 17, Xiaokang will also launch a medium and large SUV (six seats) this year, and is developing a new large-size SUV, which is expected to be released in 2023.
At present, AITO's second model, the Q&I M7, has entered the new car catalog of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, positioning a medium-sized SUV with a length of more than 5 meters, reaching 5020mm, a wheelbase of 2820mm, using gasoline /electric hybrid, equipped with a model of "H15RT" 1.5T four-cylinder range extended power, the maximum power of the engine is 92kW, and the fuel consumption of the engine WLATC is 1.05L/100km.
Affected by the epidemic this year, the supply chain of the automotive industry has been unprecedentedly tight, and Cyrus is also ready. AITO Chongqing Liangjiang Smart Factory already has an annual production capacity of 100,000 vehicles, in addition to the new second plant built in accordance with the standards of intelligent digital flexible vehicle plants, it is expected that Xiaokang will have an annual output of 200,000 vehicles after being put into operation.
