According to a report by “European Auto News” on September 22, in August, the total sales volume of Chinese car brands in the European market exceeded 97,000 vehicles, an increase of 111% over the previous year. The market share reached 11.7%, surpassing the sales volume of the two traditional European brands Renault and Audi. Judging from the overall performance of the European automobile market, sales of new cars increased by about 5% year-on-year in August, reaching about 835,000 units. Among them, sales of pure electric vehicles were 245,000 units, an increase of 52% over the previous year; plug-in hybrid vehicles performed more prominently, with sales reaching about 94,000 units. In contrast, the growth rate of the European automobile market as a whole is relatively moderate, and electrified models are still an important driving force for market growth. In addition to the continued growth of pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid models have also been clearly heating up recently. In August, sales of Chinese brand plug-in hybrid models nearly tripled year-on-year to about 33,000 units. BYD Seal U, Chery's JaecoOJ7, and SAIC MGHS all entered the top ten plug-in hybrid sales in Europe.
