Market achievements - PC + LUV – China – 2016 – By models: top 15
 
Out of a total of 24.4 million new passenger cars sold in China in 2016, the MPV WulingHongguang (accounted in the GM group) remains the best-selling model, with 650,000 units, ahead of the SUV Haval H6 of the Great Wall Group (580,000 units) which made a real a breakthrough (+ 55.6 per cent) and the sedans VW Lavida (480,000 units), Hyundai Elantra (390,000 units) and Buick Excelle GT (370,000 units). Follow the MPV  Baojun 730 (accounted in the GM group),and the sedans Nissan Bluebird (368,000 units), VW Jetta (348,000 units) and VW Sagitar (341,000 units).

Of the passenger cars sold in China in 2016, 50% are sedans (compared to 56% in 2015), 37% are SUVs (compared with 29% in 2015), 10% are MPVs ) and 3% are minivans (compared with 5% in 2015).

It is to note that Chinese carmakers sold in 2016 54% of SUVs, 59% of MPVs but only 17% of the sedans. Foreign carmakers thus retain a large lead in the category of sedans, but are now dominated in the category of SUVs and minivans.

It is also to note that imports accounted for 1.1 million passenger cars in 2016 (up from 1.3 million in 2015) and that the first importers remain BMW (206,000 units), Mercedes (143,000 units), Lexus (90 000 units), Toyota (69,000 units), Audi (68,000 units), Jeep (67,000 units) and Porsche (65,000 units).

Market achievements - PC + LUV – China - 2016
 
The Chinese automotive market of light vehicles (“PC+LUV”: Passenger Cars  +  Light Utility Vehicles) accelerated its growth in 2016 (+ 14.3% compared to 2015), due to tax rebates on new models sold in China of less than 1600cc displacement. The Chinese market thus exceeded 28 million units (against 24.5 million in 2015). Taking into again the reduction of these taxes in 2017, Inovev expects that the growth of the Chinese market in 2017 will be lower, of the order of 5%.

Sales of quasi-all top-15 carmakers increased in 2016 (except those of PSA), but 100% Chinese manufacturers nit in Joint Ventures with foreign companies) experienced the strongest growth, due to their position on the market: vehicles with less than 1600cc, more SUV offer, more numerous products. They increased their sales by 29.8% last year, increasing consequently their market share from 30% to 33% for PCs and from 37% to 40% for LUVs (i.e. sales of 8 million PCs and 11 million PCs+ LUVs.

The market share of foreign carmakers that produce in Joint Venture with  Chinese companies have therefore decreased, but VW (4 million sales) and GM (3.8 million) remain by far the two leading groups . They account by themselves for 32% of the Chinese market. Next are Hyundai-Kia (1.8 million), Honda (1.2 million), Renault-Nissan (1.2 million) and Toyota (1.1 million). Three Chinese carmakers have succeeded for the first time to position themselves in the leading group: Changan (1.2 million), Great Wall (1 million) and Geely (0.9 million).
