AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/15 Report--

The latest monthly midsize car sales list has been released! Judging from the list, due to the impact of the epidemic and spare parts supply, there were still some changes in the ranking of medium-sized cars in November. Although the German-Japanese joint venture models at the top of the list, especially the competition between BBA and traditional mainstream brands is very fierce, there are also domestic models beginning to impact the status of joint venture cars.

According to the list, only seven models sold more than 10,000 models in November, namely Camry, Seal, Accord, Passat, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4L and Model 3. Toyota Camry won the month's top midsize car sales with sales of 19459 vehicles, ahead of Honda Accord and Nissan Teana. According to the data, Honda Accord sells 15256 vehicles a month, ranking third behind Camry and Seals, while Teana, which has just completed a mid-term revamp, sells only 6880 vehicles a month.

It is worth mentioning that the new generation Accord has just completed its declaration in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The new car is the eleventh generation of Accord and is expected to be mass produced and put on the market in 2023. However, although it is a new generation of models, the change of Accord is not satisfactory. The appearance and interior design are basically in accordance with the design style of Civic and CR-V, while the core power system is basically the same as the cash. It is worth mentioning that a new generation of Camry is also expected to be launched in 2023, when the "two fields" will compete fiercely.

In the past, there were almost no domestic models in the top 10, but November was an accident. In November, BYD sold 15356 seals, somewhere between the Camry and Accord. It is understood that BYD Seal officially launched on July 29, positioning medium-sized pure electric cars, the subsidised price range is 20.98-286800 yuan. Sales rose from 9473 in September to 11267 in October and climbed to 15356 in November, according to the data. According to the trend, the sales of the model will continue to rise in the future, and the Camry's position as king may be impacted.

In the BBA luxury brand camp, BMW underperforms Mercedes-Benz and Audi. From the list, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Audi A4L are more than 10,000, 13417 and 10239 respectively, while the BMW 3-Series is only 8329. On August 26th, the mid-term revamped BMW 3-Series officially launched, with a total of 9 new models, with a price range of 29.99-399900 yuan. As a result, the decline in BMW 3-series sales may be affected by medium-term changes, and new cars just launched may have fewer terminal discounts.

Volkswagen Maiteng and Volkswagen Passat are sister models, but there is a big difference in sales between the two models, and consumers are more inclined to Passat. The data showed that Passat sold 14502 vehicles in November, while Maiteng sold 9293, a difference of 5209. It is understood that the mid-term revamped Passat was officially launched in August 2021, while Maiteng, as a sister model, is still on sale in 2020 and will be launched in December 2019.

Let's take a look at the models with less than 10,000 vehicles. The H5 from FAW Hongqi ranks 10th. On July 26th, the new generation Red Flag H5 officially launched, the new car launched a total of seven equipped models, the price range is 15.98-225800 yuan. It is worth mentioning that the new generation of red flag H5 will be sold in the same room with the previous generation of red flag H5, which is named "Red Flag H5 Classic" and the official guiding price is 14.58-190800 yuan. Data show that 7862 Hongqi H5 were sold in November, including 5121 for the new H5 and 2741 for the H5 Classic.

As an once moribund Mondeo, sales have stabilized after the replacement. April 13, the new generation of Mondeo officially launched, a total of four new models, the price range of 15.98-216800 yuan. In terms of power, the new generation of Mondeo is equipped with 2.0T turbocharged engine, maximum power 175kw, matching 8-speed manual self-integrated gearbox. According to the sales data, Mondeo sold 6423 vehicles, 6406 vehicles, 5992 vehicles, 7329 vehicles, 5304 vehicles and 7108 vehicles respectively from June to November, while sales remained at about 3000 vehicles before the replacement.

For other luxury brands, the Cadillac CT5 is 3911, Volvo S60 is 2237 and Lincoln Z is only 1156.

Japanese family cars represented by Camry, Accord and Teana are synonymous with economic benefits, which is why they can last in the market for a long time. However, with the development of domestic brands and the continuous outbreak of the new energy vehicle market, more and more car companies have launched corresponding automobile products. At present, the traditional joint venture brands are beginning to face development difficulties, fuel vehicles have become the past, indeed the main sales of models, the rapid outbreak of new energy vehicles, but lack of competitive advantage. Life will be more and more difficult for joint venture brands in the Chinese market.
