0 car sales in September have been released. According to the data released by the China Passenger Car Association, the cumulative sales of new cars reached 1.922 million units that month, achieving a year-on-year growth of 21.5% and a month-on-month growth of 2.8%. All major categories also showed a significant upward trend, and it was indeed entering the golden September and silver October season.
From the perspective of the sedan market, the number one sales volume in September was still controlled by Wuling Hongguang MINI, but the position of this champion was not easy to maintain. If you are a little relaxed, you may be surpassed by other models. In September, there was only one difference in sales between BYD Qin and Hongguang MINI.
Since we talk about BYD , the biggest winner is it. Although we regret missing the championship, 3 of the top 10 cars in the sedan list come from this brand. Among them, BYD Qin's sales reached 37,415 units, Han has 31,336 units, and Dolphins have 24,955 units. From this set of data, we can also know that these models are quite popular in the market.
Qin series includes Qin PLUS, Qin New Energy, Qin PRO New Energy. This series is more suitable for use as the first car in the family and is mainly economical. However, the most popular one should be the Qin PLUS model, which is backed by the leading DM-i super hybrid system, ensures low power and fuel consumption, and also solves the battery life anxiety of long-distance driving.
In addition, BYD Han's sales of more than 30,000 are the first time in the history of Chinese brand medium and large sedans, and it is quite rare that Han's starting price exceeds more than 200,000. BYD Han has been selling well since its launch, especially after adding a more practical DM-i version, sales have continued to hit new highs. Perhaps it can also reflect that consumers have consistent demands on car economy, vehicle practicality, and convenience of use, whether in the entry-level family sedan market or the mid-to-high-end field.
BYD Dolphin also broke the record in September, with sales reaching 24,855 units, the well-deserved first small car. In the past, small cars were actually gradually declining. Fuel models such as Fit and POLO, which were popular in the past, are no longer so popular among consumers, and the emergence of dolphins has found a new way out for small cars. With relatively larger space, more economical car cost, and smarter configuration, it is very suitable as the second scooter for young people or families.
The monthly sales of more than 30,000 vehicles in September also include Tesla Model 3, which is also doubled compared with August. In fact, the sales of Tesla completely depends on the manufacturer's shipment volume.
In addition to the above models, the other models in the top 15 sedan sales list in September are fuel models, and they are also frequent customers on the past list. Although Nissan Sylphy's sales reached 35,926 units, second only to Hongguang MINI and Qin, compared with itself, it has a year-on-year decline of 8.5%, making it the only model on this list to decline.
There is another model I think is also worth mentioning, that is the Volkswagen Passat. In September, its sales reached 20,945 vehicles. It seems that the Passat has completely emerged from the shadow of breaking the A pillar a few years ago, and has re-entered the B-class car 's top camp.
