Today, we will bring you the ranking of medium-sized car sales in 2021! As we all know, medium-sized cars have always been a joint venture model is the market, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Nissan Teana and other mainstream medium-sized cars have a solid position, BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4L and other luxury medium-sized cars continue to sell well. Compared with the best-selling brands, the competition between second-and third-tier brands is more fierce, most models use price for quantity to maintain competition, while independent brands have only a small number of hot-selling models, most models are difficult to compete with joint venture brands in this market segment.

From the overall list, the ranking of medium-sized cars changed a lot in 2021. Honda Accord was overtaken by Camry, BMW 3-Series led Mercedes-Benz C-Class nearly 40, 000 vehicles, Tesla Model 3 as the only electric car appeared in the top 10, while among independent brands, only Red Flag H5 and Xiaopeng P7 sold more than 50, 000 vehicles.

Among the Japanese swordsmen, the Toyota Camry won the crown of the midsize car in 2021, leading Honda Accord and Nissan Teana with sales of 217700 vehicles, making it the only medium-sized car with annual sales of more than 200000. According to the data, Honda Accord outperformed Toyota Camry by nearly 20, 000, taking second place in medium-sized cars with 197700. The reason why it outperformed Toyota Camry may have something to do with its change in the middle of the year. In October 2021, the mid-term modified Accord is listed with a price range of 16.98-259800 yuan. there is a certain gap in the listing of new cars, and consumers who intend to buy new cars will wait and see, while the discount rate of new cars on the market is less in the short term. These are the reasons why Honda Accord outperformed Toyota Camry. As for Nissan Teana, although it is one of the three swordsmen in Japan, its sales have always lagged behind those of Camry and Accord, with a total sales of 163700 vehicles for the whole year.

In addition, Volkswagen Maiteng and Volkswagen Passat are sister models, and there is not much difference in sales between the two models, of which Maiteng's annual sales are 134000 and Passat's are 131300, of which Maiteng's sales decline is more serious. its total sales for the whole year of 2020 were 164700. In contrast, Passat experienced the collision of Baoyan, with SAIC Volkswagen actively applying for and completing the secondary research, and obtained excellent collision results, the current market performance is relatively stable, with a certain increase in sales compared with 2020.

In third place is the luxury medium-sized BMW 3-Series, which sold 170200 vehicles during the year, leading Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Audi A4L, including 130300 Mercedes-Benz C-Class and 121800 Audi A4L. According to the data, the Audi A4L fell to 121800 from 130900 in 2020, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class fell to 130300 from 152300 in 2020, and the BMW 3-Series increased to 170,200 from 156200 in 2020. Fundamentally speaking, the impact of the chip shortage on Mercedes-Benz and Audi is even more serious.

Tesla Model 3 is the only pure electric car in the top 10, with cumulative sales of 150900 vehicles, up from 135400 in 2020. Of course, at present, Tesla Shanghai Factory undertakes the task of Tesla's overseas exports. Most of Tesla's models exported from China in 2021 are Model 3 models, and Model 3 will perform better if it only supplies the domestic market.

After that, Buick Regal's annual sales also exceeded 100000, reaching 107400. Hongqi H5 is the highest-selling medium-sized car of its own brand, with a total sales of 80300 vehicles for the whole year, enough to compete with some second-and third-tier joint venture models. As a new power model, the Xiaopeng P7 sold a total of 60600 vehicles in the whole year, second only to the Model 3, and is also the second independent model to appear on the list. Honda Yingshi is a sister model of Accord, but its market performance is far less than that of Honda Accord. It also carries out medium-term changes in 2021, but it is expected to be difficult to change its market situation, with a total sales of 52900 vehicles in 2021. As a result of FAW Mazda delisting, Mazda Atez sales performance is very low, only 20400 vehicles were sold for the whole year. In addition, Korean Hyundai Sonata and Kia K5 will be able to recover some of their sales after the replacement, and the new generation of models will continue to compete for the market with cost-effective lines in addition to a new design language. sales of the two models were 21600 and 18100 respectively in 2020, but sales fell to 9156 and 14800 in 2021.

Overall sales of French models are in the doldrums, with low sales of models such as Peugeot 508 and Citroen C6, which is also a reflection of DPCA's sales in China. However, Dongfeng Citroen launched the Versailles C5X this year, and the model now seems to show signs of saving the Citroen brand, selling 12100 vehicles in its four months on the market.

As for the models with poor sales, most of them are new energy models, such as Kia K5 plug-in hybrid, DS9 PHEV, Peugeot 508L PHEV, Hyundai Sonata PHEV and so on. According to the list, there are only two joint venture new energy models with more than 10,000 vehicles, including 14902 Passat PHEVs and 10055 Mai Teng GTE.

From the list, medium-sized cars as a whole rely on Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and other mainstream joint venture brands, under the suppression of German-Japanese joint venture brands, some second-and third-tier brands can only increase the end market concessions, so as to maintain the overall sales level. In terms of independent brands, the Red Flag H5 is a more representative model, while the Xiaopeng P7, as the only electric car out of the circle, can compete with some second-and third-line joint venture models. As for Korean and French brands, they still continue their sluggish development trend.
