After surviving the difficult April, many car companies have put their best efforts in May and have also ushered in different scales of same/month growth, especially the sales performance of new car-making forces is gratifying. With the introduction of the purchase tax reduction

After surviving the relatively difficult April, many car companies put in full force in May and ushered in different degrees of same/month growth. In particular, new car manufacturers performed well in sales. Moreover, with the introduction of the purchase tax reduction policy of the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation, it will further stimulate the vitality of automobile consumption, and the overall recovery of the auto market will be significant. As one of the representatives of independent brands, Changan Automobile has not released specific data as of press time, but we might as well make a bold guess, it can bring us sales surprises.

guess 1: Changan CS75 series scored three times and then went to the first place

With its tall and domineering appearance, wide vision, higher throughput and more flexible trunk loading capabilities, the domestic SUV craze has been high and has also become the best battlefield for independent brands to fight with joint venture brands.

. Changan CS75 series has played the role of "pioneer" since its birth, facing head-on with the same level of joint venture cars, and its market results are also quite impressive. After the PLUS upgrade of the car series in 2019, its strength has increased significantly and sales have also ushered in a new peak. In February this year, the second-generation CS75PLUS was launched. It is equipped with Aixin 8AT gearbox standard in the entire series, and its product strength has been improved again.

According to the sales of a 4S store in Changan Automobile in Yubei District, the second-generation CS75PLUS is the sales king in the store. Currently, users who come to the store to see cars, almost 4 out of 10 are consulting for the second-generation CS75PLUS. Everyone is most interested in the 1.5T automatic and noble model. In terms of configuration, there are also active braking, adaptive cruise, 360° panoramic images, etc., and I think this version has the highest cost-effectiveness.

data shows that in April this year, Changan Automobile's retail sales of Chinese brand fuel vehicles topped the list, among which Changan CS75 series has become the sales king of Chinese brand fuel SUVs for two consecutive months. Objectively speaking, although affected by many factors in the general environment, the sales performance of Changan CS75 series is still impressive. I believe that after the market rhythm recovers in May, the Changan CS75 series is expected to score three times and win the first place in sales.

guess 2: Yidong PLUS and UNI-V have achieved the dual-star sedan

unlike the strong performance of the SUV market. The domestic brands have always been relatively weak in sedans. However, this year, you can clearly feel the development power of the domestic brand sedan market, and Changan Yidong PLUS is enough to prove it.

From the launch of the first generation of Yidong in 2012 to the launch of the 2022 Yidong PLUS on May 20, Changan Yidong has gone through ten years/three generations of evolution, and has long gained the trust of more than one million car owners. It is one of the representative models of domestic brand sedans. Data shows that in April, as a domestically best-selling domestic sedan, the sales volume exceeded 10,000 yuan. Among them, the sales volume of Yidong PLUS reached 10,537 units, and continued to maintain a steady upward trend, showing excellent market competitiveness.

And UNI-V, as the heavyweight product of the Changan UNI series in 2022, has gained a lot of attention before it was launched. The unique advantages of the only electric tail and hatchback five-door coupe in the same class have even made it gain the reputation of "domestic small A7". Data shows that UNI-V's first complete natural sales month, that is, April with a "distant fate", sold 5,425 units. Considering the situation of the auto market in April, it is already valuable.

So in May, if nothing unexpected happens, Changan Yidong PLUS is expected to achieve sales of 15,000+, while UNI-V will hit the level of sales of models that exceed 10,000 for the first time, and have the opportunity to achieve the "dual star" of Changan sedan with Yidong PLUS and promote the continuous growth of Changan Automobile sales.

guess 3: Changan New Energy is rising steadily and is accumulating its strength to squat

. Against the background of the "new four modernizations" in the automotive industry, Changan Automobile also knows that the focus of future competition lies in new energy. Its strategic layout for the new energy market has been significantly accelerated this year, and it has established a new digital pure electric brand Changan Deep Blue. The first model of the brand, Changan Deep Blue SL03, is also expected to be launched in the end of June and early July. If its price is not much different from the previous online exposure pictures, it mainly focuses on the price range of 160,000 to 230,000 yuan, matching its own product strength, it can be said to be a "hot booking".

In addition, Changan New Energy's "glutinous corn" Changan LUMIN was officially launched today, forming a product matrix with the upcoming UNI-V PHEV plug-in hybrid version, etc. The former is expected to challenge Hongguang MINIEV's sales position, while the latter will bring more choices to users and further increase their influence in the new energy market. In short, Changan New Energy's sales may rise steadily in May. More importantly, in order to jump higher, it is accumulating strength to squat.
