AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/17 Report--

In September this year, the overall performance of new energy is not outstanding, has been three consecutive months of year-on-year decline, the same month-on-month decline. In this case, even though the proportion of new power cars in the entire domestic new energy market is small, it is better than the overall market performance in September.

In the previously released list of new energy vehicle sales in September, the new power model of the Lai ES6 once again appeared in the top 10 list. In the cumulative sales in September, NIO ranked first with a total of 1972, followed by Xiaopeng with 1483 and Weimar with only 1331.

Being able to sit on the top spot this month is mainly due to the sales support of its second model, the ES6, which was built on the same platform as ES8 in September with 1659 units, but its research and development costs have been reduced. Now ES6 has entered a production capacity climbing stage of both quality and quantity, and has delivered 4609 units in the four months since the start of delivery.

While another ES8 under its brand looks very bleak, with only 313 vehicles in September. Since a number of "spontaneous combustion" incidents, the reputation of the ES8 has plummeted, and at the same time, it has also lost the trust of consumers. Although the car has been actively recalled, it has not recovered the decline. Although NIO's sales have not changed much from the previous month, NIO has been able to return to the top spot of new power car sales due to the decline in sales of rival Weima in September.

On the other hand, Xiaopeng, which ranked second, began to increase significantly in September after a continuous decline in June. as the delivery of Xiaopeng G3 2020 began on September 1, the number of cars at risk in September was 1483. Month-on-month increase of 544% Ting cumulative sales reached 12829 vehicles from January to September, still ahead of NIO and Weima.

For Xiaopeng car sales fell from 720 in July to 231 in August, ranking fourth, Li Pengcheng, head of Xiaopeng automobile market, also said that Xiaopeng car sales declined in August. Related to Xiaopeng's August product "empty window", the 2019 Xiaopeng G3 was cleared at the end of July, while the 2020 Xiaopeng G3 started delivery in early September. The transportation time of new and old models is too short, resulting in instability in the consumer market. Now it seems that Xiaopeng car sales are also slowly recovering, although it has not returned to the first place.

In addition, Xiaopeng's first pure electric medium-sized car, the Xiaopeng P7, will go on sale at the 2019 Guangzhou Auto Show and officially go on sale in March next year.

Last month's top seller, Weimar, had only 1331 vehicles at risk this month, down nearly 40 per cent from the previous month. The reason for the decline is due to consumers waiting to see the long-lasting version of Weimar EX5 520, which is similar to the situation in which Xiaopeng G3 suffered a Waterloo in August. After the delivery of the long-lasting version of 520km next month, the reason for being sued by Geely also has an impact, as to whether EX5 sales can return to their peak in the future can only be expected.

The Nezhong N01 still ranks fourth this month, with 832 insured vehicles this month, a big increase from 440 last month, and whether it can become the first echelon of the new car building power. it also depends on the market performance of Hezhong U, its high-end model. As for other brands, the market share is still very small, less than 2%.

From the overall sales point of view, in addition to Weimar several car companies, their performance has ushered in a pick-up. However, the recovery in sales still cannot help car companies to make profits, and many new power car companies are still unable to get rid of financial troubles. "lack of money" has become the biggest problem threatening the survival of first-tier enterprises, and it has also greatly hindered them from further speeding up product layout and taking the lead. At the same time, the overall market environment also restricts the new power car companies can not have too much growth in sales.
