According to the reporter's understanding, SAIC Datong made such a judgment for the light passenger market in the first half of this year at the semi-annual meeting of dealers: the market performance in the first quarter and the second quarter was sluggish.

In fact, from the China Automobile Industry Association announced the January-May light passenger car (including non-complete vehicles) production and sales data can be roughly estimated: total sales of 180,961 vehicles, an increase of 5.47%. However, as far as the reporter observes, the small increase in the overall sales of light passengers is closely related to the high growth of individual companies, so the market situation of the entire industry is really sluggish.
The “depression†is the market tone in the first half of the year. The proportion of light passengers in the entire bus industry is about 80%. In other words, the performance of light buses directly affects the overall situation of the passenger car market. However, because light passengers are much different in use than large and medium-sized passenger cars, people are accustomed to distinguish light passengers from large and medium-sized passenger cars, alone.
In the first half of this year, due to the impact of the country's macroeconomic situation, the market performance of light passenger vehicles may be under a premise of sluggishness, and there may be a small increase, but the market competition is also fierce. With the continuous participation of spoilers in previous years, the current market structure has basically taken shape. Many light passengers have expressed this to reporters.
Although the market demand for light buses is not sufficient, under the economic “new normalâ€, the potential of certain market segments is still bright. For example, the market prospect of pure electric light passengers is very favored by the industry, especially pure electric light logistics vehicles. This can be seen during the Shanghai Auto Show this year, the participating models carried by various companies.
There are many market opportunities for light passenger modification. Although the market is facing a “new normalâ€, we can still observe the growth of the current light passenger car market through the performance of several light buses in the market. For example, SAIC Chase said at the semi-annual meeting of the dealers held in advance that the light passengers just need to be still there; Foton Motor held a series of activities around the German VAN Tuyano, hoping to build a high-end commercial vehicle in the city; Jianghuai Xingrui aimed The government's move to eliminate the yellow-label car seeks market opportunities.
The light passenger car has strong modification ability, which can not only carry people, load goods, but also can be converted into special vehicles. The wide use is an important reason for its overall market capacity.
Judging from the sales situation in the first half of this year, according to the incomplete statistics of the reporter, the top five companies in light passenger cars (including non-complete vehicles) are Jinbei Automobile, Jiangling Holdings, Nanjing Iveco, Dongfeng Motor Corporation and Beiqi Foton. The sum of these five sales accounts for about 60% of the total sales of light passenger cars (including non-complete vehicles). This also shows from the side that the current industry concentration of light passenger cars is limited, and the market space for light passenger cars is very large.
Pure electric power is the breakthrough route. According to the market performance of young passengers in the first half of this year, some insiders pointed out that demand for high-end commercial vehicles such as first- and second-tier cities is relatively saturated. With the integration of urban and rural areas, the logistics industry is sinking into third- and fourth-tier cities. Due to the influence of factors, the market demand for light buses has gradually subsided. In addition, pure electric light passengers for business reception and urban logistics are also a market signal given by the younger passenger market in the first half of this year. Pure electric light passengers are expected to continue to grow in the future. It is reported that in the first half of this year, Nanjing Iveco cooperated with a battery company in Nanjing to sign a pure electric light passenger cooperation agreement for city shuttle; SAIC pure electric light passenger EV80 also signed an order with a new energy bus company for commuting , tourism, business reception, community services, etc.
Many industry insiders said that although the overall bus market in the first half of this year was sluggish, the situation in the second half of the year will improve, as the market still has rigid demand for light passengers.
