Car Review Observation "Car Reviews Agency"
Introduction: Despite the rapid development of new energy vehicles in recent years and the changes in the automotive industry are unstable, SUVs are still the "password" of sales of various car companies.
A few days ago, according to the retail sales data for September released by the China Passenger Car Association, narrow passenger cars sold a total of 1.922 million new cars in that month, an increase of 21.5% year-on-year and 2.8% month-on-month. Among them, the SUV market sold 852,000 cars in September, an increase of 16.2% year-on-year, which is the fastest-growing among the three major sectors.
So, what are the specific changes in the retail sales list in September? Let’s take a look with the car review agency below.
TOP 1: Model Y
Sales in September: 46694
Since September, Tesla Model Y sold 46694 units per month, surpassing BYD Song with a year-on-year score of 41.4%, becoming the first place. The sales of
Model Y are actually not surprising, because from the report released by Tesla in September, it is planned to increase sales to 80,000 vehicles in 2022. Previously, due to production capacity issues, Tesla only delivered 39,000 vehicles in Germany as of the end of September, which means that Tesla will achieve the goal of 40,000 vehicles in the remaining time of this year.
Fortunately, the Tesla Super Factory in Berlin has increased the production capacity of Model Y to 2,000 vehicles per week. I believe that in the remaining months of this year, not only Model Y's sales will continue to grow, but even Model 3 will perform well.
TOP 2: BYD Song
Sales in September: 45934 units
Although BYD Song's sales in September were 45934 units, a year-on-year increase of 116.4% but failed to win the sales championship, it has significantly improved compared with 42477 units in August.
BYD Song’s hot sales are not only attributed to the improvement of product strength, but also to the wider variety of models.
Take self-developed technology as an example. Since BYD released the DM-i super hybrid technology, BYD's hybrid models have become popular products. Among the models, BYD Song PLUS new energy has DM-i, EV, Song Pro DM-i and other models. Especially models equipped with DM-i super hybrid technology can not only realize pure electric transportation, but also achieve no mileage worry and fuel-saving when the fuel is full. No wonder it can be "hot".
TOP 3: Haval H6
September sales: 16887
September Haval H6 delivered a good report card, with sales of 16887 units, a year-on-year decrease of 27.7%, ranking third.
Since No. 95 gasoline entered the "10 yuan era", the development of Haval H6 has been restricted. Among compact SUVs, Haval H6 has the title of "Gas Tiger". After monitoring by many institutions, the fuel consumption of many models of the Haval H6 series is around 10L/100km. Although Haval H6 has been launching a small-displacement 1.5T engine in recent years, it still has not changed the fate of fuel consumption.
In addition, the sales of Haval H6 are not as good as before. Another reason is that it is affected by the family models, such as Haval Big Dog, Haval Divine Beast, Haval First Love, Haval Chitu , and Haval Kugou. These five models are very similar in terms of prices and product positioning, so they naturally "share" part of the sales.
Some people also believe that the Haval H6 does not have new energy models, but with the release of the Haval H6 DHT hybrid version in August, the status quo has not changed, so the top priority is that the Haval brand should consider the current product planning issues.
TOP 4: Changan CS75
September sales: 16849
September, Changan CS75 ranked fourth with 16849 CS75, an increase of 7.7% year-on-year.
As the most favorable competitor of Haval H6, the SUV sales dominant, Changan CS75 was once a "hot" model. Now the performance of Changan CS75 also seems to be a bit insufficient.
From the launch of the first generation of CS75 in 2014 to the second generation of Changan CS75PLUS, it is undeniable that Changan CS75 Plus has a relatively good overall performance among the same-class models, especially the power combination of the 2.0T+8AT gearbox that year was very eye-catching even in joint venture models. For consumers who pursue cost-effectiveness, a 1.5T version of the model is also provided.
, but now competitors are investing in the hybrid track, and even Wuling Star, which is less than 100,000, has produced DHT hybrid.In this way, Changan CS75 Plus is equipped with the top ten Chinese core engines, which are far behind others in terms of fuel consumption and acceleration. Therefore, it can be clearly seen that the lack of new energy vehicles has become a major shortcoming of Changan CS75 Plus.
TOP 5: BYD Yuan Plus
9 Monthly sales: 16701
9 September BYD Yuan Plus ranked fifth with a score of 16701 till now.
The response of BYD Yuan Plus was not very high when it was launched. It may be because Chinese people prefer the atmospheric appearance, while BYD Yuan Plus can actually be regarded as a "small car", and its appearance is more in line with the aesthetics of the European market.
And we found that recently, BYD Yuan Plus not only won a five-star rating in the European E-NCAP safety test, but also officially announced its entry into the Indian passenger car market and released the first high-end pure electric SUV Yuan PLUS. I believe that it will gain another wave of "Di fans" soon.
Car Review Observation
Among the top 15, BYD is the one with the most models on the list of single brands. In addition to BYD Song and Yuan PLUS, there is also BYD Tang . The sales volume in September was 15,051 units, an increase of 152.9% year-on-year, breaking the sales record again. In addition, there is also a new energy vehicle. The price of the Aion family's AION Y is not low, but it can increase by 159.7% year-on-year with a record of 13,408 vehicles, ranking 11th, and is the highest growth rate on the list, which is rare.
In addition, in the list, we can see that German cars account for five models, namely Volkswagen Tiguan , Volkswagen Tuyue, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Audi Q5 , and BMW X3 , with sales volumes of 14242, 12885, 13740, and 12617 respectively, which are all major SUVs.
Unlike German, Japanese SUVs are almost in a downward stage. The sales of Toyota RAV in April was 13,698 units, a year-on-year decrease of 0.3%; Honda CR-Vhtml sold 13,422 units in May, a year-on-year decrease of 4.5%; Nissan Qashqai sold 13,005 units in monthly sales, a year-on-year decrease of 4.3%.
In general, fuel version SUVs are collectively on a downward trend, and new energy models maintain a steady and upward attitude. Unfortunately, this time, I didn’t see mainstream SUVs such as Chery Tiggo 8 and Geely Boyue . But then again, this is the case in the automobile market. If the fittest survives, manufacturers must go through the process of "a new generation of people replacing old people" if they want to maintain their market position.
