AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/07 Report--

According to the Interface News, some consumers quoted 4S store staff as saying that "Shanghai new energy vehicles with a length of less than 100000 yuan or less than 4.6m will no longer send license plates after the May Day holiday."

I learned at an automobile forum that some motorists had previously reflected on the forum that the new Wuling Hongguang MINIEV could not get a new energy license in Shanghai. In this regard, the media contacted the relevant 4S store to ask, the staff said, "the new policy has not yet been announced, but the brand's best-selling A0-class pure electric car really can not be green card." In addition, several DMV offices in Shanghai also said, "the new policy will be released as soon as May 10, and no information can be disclosed until then."

I believe you are all too familiar with Wuling Hongguang MINIEV. The Wuling Hongguang MINIEV was officially launched at the 2020 Chengdu Motor Show. Soon after its launch, the Wuling Hongguang MINIEV was sought after by consumers, with sales of 7348, 15000, 20150, 23762, 28246 and 32097 respectively from July to December 2020. It can be seen that Hongguang MINIEV sales are rising, and for many months surpassed Tesla to become the top seller of new energy vehicles.

On April 8, the new Wuling Hongguang MINEV macaron version was officially listed with guidance prices of 37600 yuan and 43600 yuan respectively, and its appearance, interior decoration and configuration have been upgraded. Although the price has been raised, the texture and configuration of the vehicle have been significantly improved, and its sales are still very promising.

Of course, if new energy vehicles with a length of less than 100000 yuan or less than 4.6m can not get a Shanghai license, then not only Wuling Hongguang MINIEV will be affected, but also Chery small ant, Baojun E100, Baojun E200, Changan Mercedes-Benz E-Star, Collaway and so on will be affected, but the Wuling Hongguang MINI will be affected the most.

So if it is assumed that the incident is true, will it affect the sales of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV? The answer is yes, but the impact is not significant. According to the sales release of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV, its sales are mainly concentrated in second-and third-tier cities, accounting for 62 per cent, compared with 3.8 per cent in first-tier cities. According to the data of the Federation of passengers, the cumulative sales of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV reached 99674 in the first quarter, far exceeding Tesla Model 3. Only the Shanghai license limit can not shake the overall sales level of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV.

At present, SAIC GM Wuling has yet to respond to the fact that Wuling Hongguang MINIEV can not be listed in Shanghai.
