At the same time, the top ten rankings of retail sales of manufacturers in July were also surprising.FAW ToyotaExcept for GAC Toyota, other joint venture automakers are nowhere to be seen.BYD、auspicious、CheryThe sales volume of the brand has firmly ranked in the top five, leaving only Volkswagen and Toyota on the table! Has the automotive industry changed?

Volkswagen and Toyota are the only two strong joint venture car companies

In terms of sales ranking, both Volkswagen South and Volkswagen South are in the top five.FAW-VolkswagenIn July, the retail sales volume was 114,234 units, ranking third; SAIC Volkswagen's retail sales volume in July was 88,213 units, ranking fifth.

It is worth mentioning that FAW Toyota is one of the few joint venture automakers that has maintained positive growth, with a year-on-year increase of 4.7%, exceeding the market growth rate.

The reasons for the decline in sales and status of joint venture automakers are not difficult to guess. It is mainly because joint venture brands did not launch smart new energy vehicles that meet market demand in a timely manner during the process of electrification transformation, and were overtaken by domestic brands. As the market share of new energy vehicles gradually expands, joint venture brands continue to lose their voice, and the decline in sales is also an inevitable outcome.

As for Volkswagen and Toyota, which are still able to sit at the table, the former has achieved certain results in developing smart new energy vehicles, with its ID. series of models selling well in the market; the latter has a leading advantage in the hybrid field and is the first choice for consumers to transition from pure fuel vehicles to pure electric vehicles. At the same time, the two multinational brands, Volkswagen and Toyota, have a high degree of recognition in the minds of Chinese people, and their models have the advantages of being solid, durable, and worry-free.

As for other joint venture car companies, if they want to maintain their market position, they must catch up with the research and development progress of smart new energy vehicles and correct their brand posture. It is impossible to rely on old capital and make money without doing anything.

Compared with 64,000 units in the same period last year, the growth rate was beyond expectations.

The price war in the automobile market has gradually subsided, and many automakers have focused on the development of new cars, hoping to return to the peak of sales with powerful products. Among them, the joint venture automakers are under the greatest pressure. They used to be the king of the market, but now they are not qualified to stay at the table.
