Industry situation In the first half of 2023, China’s economy continued to recover, and the “triple pressure” has been alleviated to a certain extent and all industries have shown varying degrees of recovery momentum. But constrained by weak consumption and other factors, the internal impetus for economic growth is not strong, and the foundation for economic recovery is not yet solid. In the face of subsidy withdrawal, insufficient demand and other headwind factors, the auto industry in the first half of the year to increase promotion campaigns, increase the supply of new models, together with the national and local policies for automobile consumption, and the gradual recovery of automobile market demand. At the same time, new energy vehicles, automobile exports and Chinese brands continued to maintain a good momentum, which helped the industry achieve positive growth in the first half of the year. The specific situation of the industry during the reporting period is as follows: In the first half of 2023, the domestic automobile industry achieved a cumulative sales volume of 13.239 million units, had a 9.8% year-over-year growth, and the overall sales volume showed a low trend before and then a high trend. By model, the cumulative sales volume of passenger vehicles in the first half of the year was 11.268 million units, had an 8.8% year-over-year growth, which was less than the industry. Due to the favorable factors such as macroeconomic recovery and strengthening of infrastructure investment, the commercial vehicles market achieved double-digit rapid growth year-over-year, and achieved 1.971 million sales in the first half of the year, had a 15.8% year-over-year growth, and had an obvious recovery momentum. New energy vehicles and automobile exports, as the two major growth highlights of the current automobile market, continue to effectively drive the overall market growth with good performance. Although the new energy subsidy policy has been withdrawn at the end of 2022, the new energy vehicles market in the first half of 2023 still maintained a sustained growth trend, and the production and sales reached a new high in the same period, respectively completed 3.788 million units and 3.747 million units, with year-over- year growth of more than 40%, continuing to show a prosperous trend of production and sales. From the market segment, EV and XEV higher than EV model. Chinese automobile brands continue to be the main source of growth of the new energy passenger automobile market, contributing more than 75% sales of the new energy passenger cars. The market share of Chinese automobile brands in the new energy passenger cars raised to 53.5%, nearing a record high. Automobile exports grew rapidly, exceeding 2 million units in the first half of 2023, contributing significantly to the overall growth of the market, of which the export of new energy vehicles reached 534,000 units, had a year-over-year growth more than 150%. In recent years, with a more complete industrial chain, continuous and rapid iteration of intelligent technology, scale advantages and abundant product matrix, Chinese automobile brands have promoted the continuous development and growth of China's automobile export scale.
