Of course, calm is not the keynote of the auto market, and surprises are always around: after watching Geely's excellent performance for a year, I finally found that it was surpassed by Changan? Mercedes-Benz and BMW all say that they are the first. Who is the boss? Volkswagen narrowly beat Toyota, winning only 80,000 vehicles? FAW-Volkswagen became the first car company in China to break through 265,438+10,000 vehicles?
Changan surpasses Geely?
Changan released last month's sales at the beginning of the month. Changan sold China brand cars 15036 1 car in February, up by 35% year-on-year and1/0.6% quarter-on-quarter, ranking first among China brand car companies in February. Combined with the previously published monthly sales data, it can be found that the total annual sales volume of Changan Automobile is 1363769.
With a slight advantage of more than 2,000 vehicles, it surpassed Geely 136 1560 vehicles and became the annual sales champion of China brand. There is no doubt that Changan has made rapid progress by relying on PLUS series, but it is somewhat surprising to have such a high report card.
According to the sales data of 65438+February released by Changan Automobile's official account, Changan CS75*** sold 28620 vehicles, changan CS35*** sold 16389 vehicles, changan CS55*** sold148 vehicles, and Changan Yidong sold1. The data adds up to 66,482 vehicles, which is more than double the result of 1.5 million vehicles. The data of popular models are listed, and the remaining large-scale results don't know why.
From the data published by the Federation, we saw another version. The retail volume of Changan Automobile in June 5438+February was 91461; The annual retail sales volume was 769,479 vehicles, and the annual wholesale sales volume was 803,296,5438+0 vehicles. (Note: The wholesale sales volume of Geely announced here is 136 1560, which is consistent with the official announcement). One is 800,000 yuan, the other is1360,000 yuan, and the other is150,000 yuan. The reason is unknown. Just use a question mark to express your intention?
Mercedes-Benz and BMW all say that they are the first?
The report cards of Mercedes-Benz and BMW came out in one day. Coincidentally, this is not enough. These two extravagant people say that they are the best in the world. Mercedes-benz: 20 19 Mercedes-benz and smart brands sold 2,456,343 new cars worldwide. Mercedes-Benz brand sold 2,339,562 vehicles, winning the annual sales crown of global luxury car brands for the fourth consecutive year.
In the China market, Mercedes-Benz and smart*** delivered 702,088 new cars, of which Mercedes-Benz brand delivered 693,443 new cars.
BMW: In 20 19, BMW Group delivered 2.52 million BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce cars worldwide, ranking first among the world's high-end automobile manufacturers for 16 consecutive years. In the China market, * * * delivered 723,680 BMWs and mini-cars, becoming the first high-end automobile manufacturer in China, including about 32,600 mini-cars and about 696,5438+million BMW brands.
In fact, a careful comparison shows that the first one said by the two companies is not wrong. Mercedes-Benz emphasizes the "Mercedes-Benz" brand, that is, a single brand model with Mercedes-Benz logo, which is the global sales champion. BMW is talking about the total sales of its sub-brands, including BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce. In terms of the total sales volume of the group, BMW is naturally the first.
Similarly, in the China market, the sales volume of Mercedes-Benz is the first, and the sales volume of BMW, including BMW and MINI, is the first. If we only talk about a single brand, Mercedes-Benz is only about 2000 units ahead of BMW, which is not an advantage for two manufacturers with such a large volume.
However, before BMW exposed the news of sales fraud, some media reported that as early as 20 16, Ludwig Willisch, a North American executive of BMW, had admitted that there was sales fraud in the North American market. BMW later said that 20 17 stopped this practice, but it probably didn't really stop. Whether it is true or not is still inconclusive, so there is no accurate answer to whether the sales volume is high or low. But what is certain is that Audi lost in the China market.
In the global market, Volkswagen only won 80,000 Toyota cars?
The dispute between Volkswagen and Toyota has never stopped. Since the collapse of the American Big Three, they have taken turns to sit on the throne of the global sales champion. In 20 19, Volkswagen's global sales volume was108000, and Toyota Group expected1072000, and 80000 Volkswagen narrowly won.
But in terms of profit, Volkswagen is not as good as Toyota. In the first three quarters, the net profit of Audi AG was11540,000 euros (86.5 billion yuan), and that of Toyota was 1.73 trillion yen (11800,000 yuan).
Volkswagen won sales, Toyota won profits, and the competition of old rivals has been going on. At this time, the most worrying thing is the "fresh meat" Tesla. In fact, the market value has surpassed Daimler, followed by Toyota and Volkswagen.
Toyota is to the world, and the public is to China. This sentence seems to have been circulating for a long time, but it has always been useful. FAW-Volkswagen alone sold 265,438+million vehicles in China this year, becoming the first automobile enterprise in China to break through the sales mark of 265,438+million vehicles and winning the championship for the first time in the past five years. Among them, Volkswagen sales reached 65,438+0,398,088, and Audi reached 688,888.
In 2020, FAW-Volkswagen, including Audi and Jetta, will bring at least 25 new models, which is the incremental benefit of FAW-Volkswagen this year, and the record of 2,654,380+vehicles is likely to be broken by itself.
Whether Changan is super lucky or not, and which sales volume is accurate, we don't know. Mercedes-Benz and BMW both say that they are the first, but there is nothing wrong with them. They just don't know how much gold BMW has, but Audi can only rank third in the 20 19 China market. Volkswagen is still the same Volkswagen, with a record of 2,654,380+million vehicles, which may have been broken by itself.
