Tesla delivers 76,663 vehicles in China in Mar, exports 12,206 from Shanghai plant

Tesla's share of the NEV market in China was 14.12 percent in March and 20.02 percent in the BEV market.  |  TSLA.US

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) delivered a near-record high number of vehicles in China in March, with its Shanghai plant producing vehicles in the second half of each quarter primarily for local deliveries.

Tesla China exported 12,206 vehicles in March, according to data released today by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).

That means Tesla delivered 76,663 vehicles in China in March, considering the CPCA released data on April 4 showing that the EV maker sold 88,869 China-made vehicles in March.

Tesla has a factory in Shanghai that produces the Model 3 and Model Y. The factory exported 69.85 percent fewer vehicles in March than the 40,479 units in February, up from 60 units a year earlier.

Last March, Tesla's Shanghai plant saw a big drop in exports due to a Covid lockdown. The plant did not export any vehicles in April last year.

Including exports, the China-made Model 3 sold 27,202 units in March and the Model Y 61,667 units, the CPCA data released today showed. Breakdown figures for both models' sales in China are expected to be available in the coming days.

In March, retail sales of new energy vehicles (NEVs) in China were 543,000 units, up 21.9 percent year-on-year and up 23.6 percent from February, according to the CPCA.

Retail sales of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in China were 383,000 units in March, up 6.38 percent year-on-year and up 30.04 percent from February.

This means that Tesla's share of the NEV market in China was 14.12 percent in March, up from 7.73 percent in February. It had a 20.02 percent share of the BEV market in China in March, up from 11.5 percent in February.

BYD's retail sales in March were 192,000 units, with a market share of 35.36 percent, according to the CPCA.

BYD's BEV sales figures for March are not yet available; the company previously reported BEV wholesale sales of 102,670 units, contributing 49.58 percent of its NEV sales.

China’s Mar NEV retail sales at 549,000 units, preliminary CPCA data show

This was up 27 percent from February, but below the CPCA's estimate of around 560,000 units announced in late March.

Retail sales of new energy passenger vehicles (passenger NEVs) in China were 549,000 units in March, up 5 percent year-on-year and up 27 percent from February, preliminary figures released today by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) show.

Notably, the CPCA's estimate released on March 24 showed that retail sales of passenger NEVs in China in March were expected to be around 560,000 units.

The lower figure released today means that the NEV market performed weaker in the last week of March than the CPCA had expected.

In the first quarter, retail sales of passenger NEVs in China were 1.139 million units, up 15 percent from a year earlier, the CPCA said today.

Wholesale sales of passenger NEVs in China rose 32 percent to 599,000 units in March, up 21 percent from the previous month.

In the first quarter, wholesale sales of passenger NEVs in China were 1.483 million units, up 24 percent from a year earlier.

Retail sales of all passenger vehicles in China were 1.596 million units in March, flat from a year ago and up 17 percent from last February, according to the CPCA.

This means that the penetration of passenger NEVs at retail in March was 34.4 percent, up 2.8 percentage points from 31.6 percent in February.

In the first quarter, retail sales of all passenger vehicles in China were 4.275 million units, down 13 percent year-on-year.

Wholesale sales of passenger vehicles in China were 1.955 million units in March, up 7 percent year-on-year and up 22 percent from February.

In the first quarter, China's passenger car wholesale sales were 5.021 million units, down 8 percent year-on-year.

With a large number of car companies stepping up their promotions in March, demand for cars was concentrated, putting pressure on the normal order of the market, the CPCA said.

From the performance of the first four weeks of March, the conversion rate of customer traffic is not high, consumers were in a wait-and-see mood, and the overall demand was weak, the CPCA said.

Here are the CPCA's weekly retail sales data for the Chinese passenger vehicle market in March, as announced today:

Average daily retail sales of passenger vehicles in the first week of March were 31,000 units, down 16 percent year-on-year and down 14 percent from the same period in February.

Average daily sales for the second week of March were 37,000 units, down 18 percent year-on-year and down 8 percent from the same period in February.

Average daily sales for the third week of March were 41,000 units, up 10 percent year-on-year and up 7 percent from the same period in February.

Average daily sales for the fourth week of March were 46,000 units, up 18 percent year-on-year but down 35 percent from the same period in February.

Sales for the fifth week of March were reported at 115,000 units, up 3 percent year-on-year and up 63 percent from the same period in February.

Price wars fail to boost China’s auto consumption

With consumers in a wait-and-see mood, orders and transaction rates did not increase significantly, and auto demand recovered less than expected, the CADA said.

Price wars fail to boost China's auto consumption-CnEVPost

Many automakers in China launched rare price wars in March to try to boost sales. But these moves do not seem to have achieved the results they wanted.

In March, following significant promotions by automakers in Hubei province, dozens of provinces and cities, including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and Zhejiang, offered deals that gave dealership store traffic a quick boost, the China Automobile Dealers Association (CADA) said in an April 3 report.

However, orders and transaction rates did not increase significantly as consumers were in a wait-and-see mood, and auto consumer demand did not recover as expected, the CADA said.

The Vehicle Inventory Alert Index for China's auto market was 62.4 percent in March, down 1.2 percentage points from a year ago but up 4.3 percentage points from February, according to the CADA report.

The index's break-even value is 50 percent, and a reading above that benchmark means the auto distribution industry is in contraction territory, according to the report.

China's switch to the 6b emissions standard was not the main reason for the wave of price cuts, the CADA said, adding that most dealers said their inventories of 6a-based vehicles are not high and could be cleared by the end of June.

However, there are still a large number of 6b-based vehicles that do not meet RDE (real-world driving emission) standards, and with lower-than-expected sales in the first quarter, these vehicles face challenges in completing inventory clearance by the end of June, the CADA said.

In March, vehicle prices were volatile and customer wait-and-see sentiment was strong, resulting in lower orders and turnover rates and a decline in dealer profitability, according to the report.

More than 60 percent of dealers said they met less than 80 percent of their sales targets in the first quarter. Of those, 20.5 percent of dealers achieved 70-80 percent of their sales targets and 46.0 percent achieved less than 70 percent, the CADA said.

Separately, the CADA said in another report on April 3 that the March auto consumption index was 72.5, down from 74.6 percent in February.

March auto sales did not meet expectations, and dealers predict that without major policy changes in April, auto sales will be essentially unchanged from March, the CADA said.

In March, the demand sub-index of the auto consumption index was 68.2, down from 73.3 in February, the CADA said, adding that this signals a decline in demand for cars in April.

China’s Mar passenger NEV wholesale sales up 20% MoM to 600,000, CPCA estimates show

In the first quarter, wholesale sales of new energy passenger vehicles in China are expected to be 1.48 million, up 25 percent year-on-year, the CPCA said.

China's March wholesale sales of new energy passenger vehicles (passenger NEVs) are expected to be 600,000 units, up 20 percent from February and up 30 percent year-on-year, the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) said in a report today.

In February, the 10 manufacturers that sold more than 10,000 NEVs at wholesale contributed 83 percent of all wholesale sales, the CPCA said.

These companies are expected to sell 477,000 units in March, and the normal structure would put China's March wholesale sales of passenger NEVs above 570,000 units, the CPCA said.

Considering that some small and medium-sized companies' NEV sales improved significantly from February, the passenger car market in March could be optimistic, the CPCA said.

In the first quarter, wholesale sales of passenger NEVs in China are expected to be 1.48 million, up 25 percent year-on-year, the CPCA said.

China's passenger NEV sales fell sharply in January, as subsidies for the purchase of NEVs were withdrawn, as well as under the influence of the Chinese New Year holiday. The market gradually rebounded in February.

In March, China's passenger NEV market maintained a rebound despite disruptions from gasoline vehicle promotions, the CPCA said.

With recent lithium carbonate price reductions evident, some manufacturers actively allowed production and sales to slow down in the first quarter to reduce costs, the CPCA noted.

At one point in late November last year, battery-grade lithium carbonate was quoted at RMB 590,000 ($85,790) per ton in China, about 14 times the average RMB 41,000 per ton price in June 2020.

Since then, lithium carbonate offers have continued to move downward, without seeing a single day of gains this year.

Battery-grade lithium carbonate prices in China today fell RMB 8,500 per ton, or 3.66 percent, to RMB 224,000 per ton, according to Mysteel data monitored by CnEVPost.

Industrial-grade lithium carbonate fell RMB 6,000 per ton, or 3.08 percent, to RMB 189,000 per ton today.

Zeekr delivers 6,663 vehicles in Mar, up 22% from Feb

In the first quarter, delivered 15,234 units, up 84.86 percent year-on-year, but down 53.08 percent from the fourth quarter.

Zeekr's deliveries continued to rebound in March, although the first-quarter figure was down significantly from the fourth quarter.

Zeekr delivered 6,663 vehicles in March, up 271.20 percent from 1,795 in the same month last year and up 22.14 percent from 5,455 in February, according to data it released today.

In the first quarter, Zeekr delivered 15,234 vehicles, up 84.86 percent from 8,241 in the same period last year, but down 53.08 percent from 32,467 in the fourth quarter.

The decline in Zeekr's deliveries in the first quarter was primarily due to a 21-day production halt at its Ningbo, Zhejiang plant around the Chinese New Year holiday. The plant resumed production on February 1. January 21 to January 27 was this year's Chinese New Year holiday.

The shutdown resulted in Zeekr delivering only 3,116 vehicles in January, a new low since April 2022.

Zeekr was officially launched as an independent company in March 2021, with its first model, the Zeekr 001, launched on April 15, 2021, and deliveries beginning in October 2021.

On November 1, 2022, Zeekr's second model, the Zeekr 009 MPV, was launched, and its deliveries began on January 15.

As of March 31, Zeekr's cumulative deliveries since inception were 93,182.
