- American manufacturers are less affected: GM (-12%), Chrysler (-13%) and especially Ford, which only lost 0.2% of its sales.
- The Korean group Hyundai-Kia (-9%) is holding up well, thanks to a renewed and well-adapted range, in the same way as BMW (-7%) and above all Mercedes, which has managed to improve its sales volume (+10%).
- But it is above all Tesla (+90%) that is progressing.
- And at the same time new brands are appearing on the US market, such as Rivian, Polestar, Karma and Lucid. But these new brands currently only represent 0.2% of the US market.

BYD announces expansion in Europe with three new models: Tang, Yuan (Atto3) and Han

BYD announces expansion in Europe with three new models: Tang, Yuan (Atto3) and Han
- The Chinese manufacturer BYD, which specializes in the production and marketing of electric and rechargeable hybrid vehicles (it was initially a battery manufacturer) has gradually become the third independent Chinese manufacturer, behind Geely and Changan, with 986,884 vehicles produced on the first eight months of 2022, which augurs for a production volume of 1.5 million units for the whole year. BYD has also become the world's second largest manufacturer of 100% electric vehicles (BEV) in the world behind Tesla and the world's leading manufacturer of rechargeable hybrid vehicles (PHEV). Still practically absent from the European market in the field of light automotive vehicles (BYD currently only sells light vehicles in Norway, whereas it already sells buses in several European countries), BYD has decided to market its models in Europe from the fall of 2022, imitating a dozen Chinese manufacturers already present on this market, the most important of which is MG (subsidiary of the SAIC group). Three 100% electric models made in China are already scheduled:
1. The Tang, which is a large SUV 4.87 m long (E segment) which allows a range of 400 km according to the WLTP cycle thanks to an 86 kWh battery. This model has already sold more than 2,000 units in Norway over the past year.
2. The second model is the Yuan (renamed Atto 3 in Europe), a 4.46 m compact SUV (C segment) equipped with a 60 kWh battery allowing a range of 400 km according to the WLTP cycle, made possible by due to a lower weight than the Tang.
3. The third model is the 4.96 m long Han sedan (E segment) allowing a range of 500 km according to the WLTP cycle.
- In 2021, the Tang was produced at the Xian site (in Shanxi) at 55,375 units, the Yuan at 41,678 units and the Han at 87,784 units. These models represent only a small part of BYD's production in 2021 (25% of the brand's total volume).

The fastest growing carmakers in China in the first 8 months of 2022

The fastest growing carmakers in China in the first 8 months of 2022
- Unlike the other two major global automotive markets, Europe and the United States, the Chinese market (VP+LCV = European segmentation) not only is not collapsing but is progressing significantly (+11.8%), on the first eight months of 2022 compared to the first eight months of 2021 (it even records an increase of +30% compared to 2020 and +10% compared to 2019).
- The gap between China and the other two major markets is therefore growing, with the Chinese market reaching 14.65 million units for the first time in the first eight months of 2022 (compared to 13.10 million units over the first eight months of 2021), while the European and US markets are well below 10 million units over this period. Which manufacturers are growing the most in China over the period?
- The manufacturer that has made the most progress is BYD (producer of electric cars and rechargeable hybrids) with a spectacular increase in sales of 167% which allows it to now follow the independent leaders Geely (+4%) and Changan (-1%) . Also progressed well Tesla (+67%) also producer of electric cars, GAC (+47%), Chery (+36%), Dongfeng (+29%) and SAIC (+27%). As a general rule, Chinese manufacturers show much higher growth than foreign manufacturers. And many foreign manufacturers are down, except for the Volkswagen groups (+10%), Toyota (+13%), GM (+1%), Honda (+3%) and Stellantis at a much lower level of sales (+ 17%). Conversely, Hyundai-Kia lost 33%, Mazda lost 24%, Renault-Nissan lost 8% and Ford lost 2%.
- The share of Chinese manufacturers therefore now reaches 43.5% of the market and even 48.5% if we include the Baojun and Wuling brands accounted for in the GM group.
