China's rapid development of light passengers is poised to seize the market


Light buses refer to passenger cars with no more than 9 seats and are mainly used for interurban short-distance travel or urban logistics. In the first half of this year, the cumulative sales volume of the light passenger vehicle market increased by 17% year-on-year, which was the second only to the SUV, far higher than that of the automotive market. The average growth rate, mainly due to the rapid growth of urban logistics, has boosted the demand for light passenger vehicle models. This is also one of the main reasons why the young passenger market has suddenly emerged.

The light passenger market is divided into three grades, and the price is lower than 80,000 yuan for low-end products, while the mid-range light passenger prices are generally concentrated between 80,000 and 120,000 yuan. As for the 120,000 or more, it belongs to the category of high-end light passengers. Since the beginning of this year, due to the withdrawal of favorable policies such as "car going to the countryside" and "replacement of old ones," the low-end light passenger market has been hit harder and the market share has fallen faster. On the contrary, mid- to high-end light passengers are less affected by the withdrawal of these policies. Coupled with the rapid development of urban logistics, the consumer demand of some users is constantly escalating, which in turn leads to the need for upgrading. Under the combined effect of these factors, the demand for high-end light passengers has been driven to a large extent, and sales have therefore been growing rapidly.

In the traditional bus market, ordinary light passengers, passengers, and large passenger bus industries have low barriers to entry, low gross profit margins, and fierce market competition. This has led to the devotion of many domestic commercial vehicle companies to the development of light passengers.

For a long time, Jiangling Transit and Nanjing Iveco are the absolute main forces in the high-end light passenger market. Now, more and more companies, including Jianghuai Xingrui, Chery Weilin H5, Hager's new generation of commercial vehicles, SAIC Chase V80, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Dongfeng A08, and so on, have swarmed in, making the current high-end light passenger market "two independent There may be some changes in the big competition.

Among them, SAIC Chase V80 and Dongfeng A08 used LDV technology from the United Kingdom, which attracted much attention from the very beginning of the project. It is reported that on June 29th this year, SAIC Chase V80 plans to go offline in Jiangsu Wuxi factory and will be listed and sold in September this year. This high-end wide-body light passenger is divided into two types of wheelbases: length and length, and four models. Among them, the use of professional-use models has become the main product, and this is precisely the area where high-end light passenger companies are currently competing. As for the Dongfeng A08, which successfully debuted at the Shanghai Auto Show, it is not yet on the market, but it is obviously well-prepared and is therefore widely viewed.
