AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/23 Report--

On July 23, ideal released the latest weekly sales list for the 29th week of 2024 (July 15 to July 21) as scheduled.

First, let's take a look at the sales list of new energy brands in the Chinese market. The top five car companies are BYD, ideal Automobile, Tesla, Mengjie and Wuling. In the new week, BYD continues to top the list with weekly sales of 66700 vehicles, and is the only brand on the list that has sold more than 60, 000 vehicles. Tesla ranked third, with weekly sales of 10500 vehicles, which was replaced by ideal cars in the new week. For reference, last week (July 8 to July 14) Tesla ranked second on the list with sales of 11400 vehicles.

Ideal car ranks second only to BYD, but its sales are much lower than BYD's, with weekly sales of 10900 vehicles, and Q & J ranks fourth with 9300. Wuling also made it into the top five, with weekly sales of 8500 vehicles. In addition to the above-mentioned brands, including Eian, Zero, Ulay, Volkswagen and Deep Blue are also on the list of new energy vehicle brands in the Chinese market in the new week, with weekly sales of 6900, 4900, 4600, 3800 and 3600 respectively.

Let's take a look at the sales list of the new power brand TOP10 in the Chinese market. Ideal car is still the top seller of the new power brand in the Chinese market, with weekly sales of 10900, higher than the 9300. This is also the third time this month that the weekly sales of ideal cars have topped the list of New Power sales.

According to statistics, from July 1 to 21, the cumulative sales of ideal cars were 30200, while those of Mengjie were 26600, with a difference of 3600. The competition between the two is still fierce, but according to the current sales trend, if nothing happens, the ideal car may continue to top the list of new power sales in July.

It is worth mentioning that the New Power week sales list released by ideal car has also caused a lot of controversy. On March 26 this year, ideal car stopped releasing weekly sales data every Tuesday and did not resume the weekly list until May 7, which sparked a lot of netizens' discussion. On July 17, Zhang Jie, head of the ideal car product line, explained the weekly sales list data released by the ideal car, responding to the saying that "the data is watery".

"the statistics of the automobile industry are probably the most standardized and perfect, from capacity planning to capacity utilization, from wholesale volume reporting (wholesale) to dealer inventory statistics, from retail volume (retail) reporting to traffic insurance, as well as import, export and used car circulation," Zhang said. "there are official statistics endorsed by the government in every aspect of the industry. These data cannot be falsified. We can tell who is true and who is false when we discuss these figures every day. " In addition, Zhang pointed out that there is no way to confirm or falsify the order quantity, because there is no unified standard for the order quantity, which is the internal data of the enterprise and an internal process indicator in the automobile circulation. In principle, the enterprise has no obligation or responsibility to publish it. At the same time, Zhang also stressed: "all the disclosed data of listed companies have to be reviewed by the corresponding regulatory authorities, not as much as they want."

Going back to the weekly sales list, the weekly sales of zero-running cars in the new week is 4900, ranking third on the list, the same as the previous week. Both Xilai and Deep Blue entered the top five, with weekly sales of 4600 and 3600, respectively. Compared with ideal car and Xilai Automobile, Xiaopeng's performance is somewhat desolate, ranking eighth on the list with weekly sales of 1900 vehicles. By the end of the first half of the year, the three patterns of "Wei Xiaoli" have been obviously divided. As a reference, the ideal car sales in the first half of the year are 189000, 87400 for Lulai and 52040 for Xiaopeng.

In addition, Polar Krypton, Teng Teng, Xiaomi and Zhiji entered the top 10, with weekly sales of 3000, 2100, 1500 and 1300, respectively. Among them, Zhiji Automobile is a subsidiary of SAIC, which is jointly established by SAIC and the governments of Alibaba and Zhangjiang to position high-end intelligent electric vehicle brands. Auto Industry concern believes that the increase in Zhiji's sales is related to the listing of Zhiji L6, the brand's fourth model, a medium and large pure electric sedan, which went on sale on May 13 with an equity price of 199900-325900 yuan.

Retail data show that Zhiji sold 23267 vehicles in the first half of this year, of which 5001, 2000, 3000, 3000, 4251 and 6015 were sold from January to June, respectively. According to the data, Zhiji car sales showed a significant increase in May and June, mainly due to the listing of Zhiji L6, which contributed 3417 vehicles in May and 3623 vehicles in June.

Finally, let's take a look at the TOP10 sales list of Chinese luxury brands. From the ranking of brands on the list, we can see that the top five on the list are still "regulars". Or under the influence of the news of "withdrawing from the price war", BMW's first place in sales in the new week was replaced by Mercedes-Benz, which topped the list with weekly sales of 13600 vehicles, while BMW and Audi sold 13400 and 12500 vehicles respectively. Ideal Motor and Tesla ranked fourth and fifth respectively, with weekly sales of 10900 and 10500 respectively. Outside the top five of the list, including Shijie, Ulay, Lexus, Polar Krypton and Tengli are all in the top 10, with weekly sales of 9300, 4600, 4400, 3000 and 2100, respectively.

From July 1 to 14, retail sales in the passenger car market were 578000, up 3 per cent year-on-year and 6 per cent month-on-month, according to the latest data from the Federation of passengers. Compared with the Dragon Boat Festival holiday and college entrance examination in early June, sales in early July are more normal, and the pressure of sales growth in the second half of the month will be reflected, the Federation said. In addition, the continued strengthening of large-scale sales promotion in the first half of this year has disturbed the normal price trend of the car market, coupled with the overdraft effect of super-strong sales promotion in the second quarter on the consumption of car buyers in the second half of the year, the effect of price-for-volume in July is likely to weaken.

It should be noted that 2024 is defined as a critical period for car companies to sweep the sand, and it is also a key year for new energy car companies to gain a foothold. As time enters the second half of the year, the competition among car companies is bound to be more fierce.
