We have to admit that with the popularity of new energy vehicles, it is really no longer profitable to just sell gasoline cars. In the past, in the sedan market, there was no voice of independent brands in the top 10 sales every month. At most, a Geely Emgrand could barely make the list. Nowadays, joint venture cars are becoming less and less. In the top 10 sedan sales in July, joint venture cars only held 4 seats. As for the rest, you will know what happened after reading on.

TOP 10: FAW-Volkswagen Sagitar

Suggested price: RMB 127,900 to RMB 172,900

July sales: 16,469

The first to serve as the gatekeeper of the top ten list is the Volkswagen Sagitar, which achieved sales of more than 16,000 units. Compared with the ranking in the first few months of this year, it is much worse and almost fell out of the top ten. In any case, Volkswagen is not as popular as before, because the new generation of young people no longer look up to foreign brands and have no faith in Volkswagen. If the father pays for a Volkswagen, the son may frown and shake his head.

TOP 9: BYD Han

Suggested price: RMB 169,800-259,800

July sales: 17008

The ninth place is BYD Han, of which Han DM sold 9,458 units and EV sold 7,550 units. From the data, Han did not escape the curse of the off-season in July, with a month-on-month sales decline. However, as a mid-to-large sedan, its sales are much better than 56E. However, Han may not only focus on 56E, because Xiaomi SU7 has a strong momentum, with sales soaring to 13,000 in July, and may usurp Han's position at any time.

TOP 8: BYD Destroyer 05

Suggested price: RMB 79,800 to RMB 136,800

July sales: 18693

When the Honor Edition of Destroyer 05 was first launched, sales accelerated significantly. But in the past two months, with the launch of BYD's fifth-generation DM technology models, consumers' enthusiasm for buying Destroyer 05 has gradually faded, and sales have temporarily slipped. I believe that many consumers who are attracted by the appearance of Destroyer 05 are also waiting for the arrival of the fifth-generation DM technology Destroyer 05. BYD's current pace of new car updates is quite good, but don't learn from Zeekr, which frantically launches new models and chills the hearts of old car owners.

TOP 7: SAIC Volkswagen Passat

Suggested price: RMB 181,900-223,300

July sales: 20003

Passat's sales have recovered significantly in recent months, and finally broke through the 20,000 mark again in July, ranking seventh. Among the joint venture B-class cars, the Camry, Accord, and Teana are all out of the list, and Passat is the only one left. This is mainly because Passat has significantly reduced its price, with the lowest comprehensive discount of nearly 80,000 yuan, making the starting price only 102,900 yuan. Potential car owners who previously thought it was too expensive took the opportunity to turn it into a regular car.

TOP 6: Dongfeng Nissan Sylphy

Suggested price: RMB 108,600-174,900

July sales: 21618

The current plight of Japanese cars can be seen from the Nissan Sylphy. Once the iron brother of the sedan market, the Lavida had to give it two points. Now its sales have fallen out of the top five, with a sales volume of only 21,618 in July. You should know that this is the result of Sylphy's efforts, including but not limited to selling several generations of cars together, and relying on the old classics as the main force; a substantial price reduction, and a landing price that is cheaper than the Qin PLUS DM-i Honor Edition.

TOP 5: BYD Seal 06

Suggested price: RMB 99,800-139,800

July sales: 21659

After BYD's fifth-generation DM technology was launched, it caused doubts for a while, but BYD finally decided to use market sales to overcome the doubts. The sister model of Qin L, Haibao 06, achieved an excellent result of 21,659 in July, ranking in the top five. This is the second full month of Haibao 06's launch. The power of faith is indeed strong.

TOP 4: SAIC Volkswagen Lavida

Suggested price: RMB 80,000-151,900

July sales: 24,356

Although the rival of Sylphy, Lavida, did not fall as badly as Sylphy, it also failed to make the top three this time, ranking fourth with a monthly sales of more than 24,000 units. The discount of Lavida is also very scary. The 24 entry-level models have a guide price of 120,900 yuan, and the terminal price in some areas is as low as 64,900 yuan, which is almost half off. For friends in areas where charging is not convenient, it is really worth choosing Lavida.

TOP 3: BYD Qin L

Suggested price: RMB 99,800-139,800

July sales: 32,466

Coming to the top three, the third place goes to BYD Qin L DM-i. This car was called an "industrial miracle" when it was launched. Let's not talk about whether it is or not, but it is well-deserved to be called a "pricing miracle". It has a B-class sedan body, NEDC fuel consumption of 2.9 per 100 kilometers, front McPherson and rear four-link, and complete intelligent configuration. If it is put in other brands and other cars, it may not have the courage to price it under 100,000.

TOP 2: BYD Seagull

Suggested price: RMB 69,800-85,800

July sales: 34,789

As for the runner-up position, there is no need to say much about Seagull. A monthly sales of 30,000 is basically the norm, and it is not uncommon to be ranked in the top two on the sales list. To be honest, Seagull cannot be said to have a very good driving quality, after all, it is a small car worth tens of thousands of yuan. However, with 4 airbags, a range of over 300 meters, and more importantly, the BYD logo, its competitiveness has increased. It is strange to say that once upon a time, the three letters "BYD" were sneered at, but now they are a golden signboard. What a fate.

TOP 1: BYD Qin PLUS

Suggested price: RMB 79,800 to RMB 142,800

July sales: 39,710

The BYD Qin PLUS won the sales champion in July, with DM-i and EV models selling 22,356 and 17,354 units respectively. Its competitiveness is needless to say. With a starting price of less than 80,000 yuan, it is popular among many family users and online car-hailing companies. So looking back at this list, among the top ten, there are 6 domestic brands among the 10 models, but all 6 of them are BYD! No wonder other car companies are afraid of "involution". You are the one who is finished. Are you going to drink the wind?
