Leapmotor delivered a record number of vehicles last month, as the company's move to add extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) offerings appears to have worked to boost sales.

The company delivered 13,209 vehicles in June, surpassing the previous record of 12,525 vehicles last August, according to figures released today.

That's up 17.32 percent from 11,259 units a year ago and up 9.55 percent from 12,058 units in May.

Leapmotor delivered 33,993 vehicles in the second quarter, up 11.76 percent year-on-year and up 223.47 percent from the first quarter.

In the first half of the year, the company delivered 44,502 vehicles, down 14.41 percent from 51,994 in the same period last year.

By the end of June, Leapmotor had delivered 206,171 vehicles since its inception, according to data monitored by CnEVPost.

In June, Leapmotor's flagship C-series model delivered more than 11,600 units, contributing more than 87 percent of total deliveries, the company said today.

Of the total, more than 8,900 units of the flagship SUV model, the C11 series, were delivered, it said.

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Zhejiang, Leapmotor's models on sale include the mini vehicle T03, the coupe model S01, the flagship SUV C11, and the flagship sedan C01.

Leapmotor has been seen as a budget EV maker for the past few years, with sales mainly contributed by the inexpensive T03, which currently has a starting price range of RMB 59,900 ($8,260) to RMB 89,900.

The C11, which went on sale September 29, 2021, and the C01, which went on sale September 28, 2022, are Leapmotor's flagship models, targeting the RMB 150,000 to RMB 300,000 range.

Deliveries of Leapmotor declined significantly starting in the fourth quarter of last year, falling to 1,139 units by January of this year, the lowest since March 2021.

To reverse the sales decline, Leapmotor announced plans last year to release an EREV model to target the market for larger plug-in hybrids. All of Leapmotor's previous models were battery electric vehicles (BEVs).

On March 1, Leapmotor officially launched the C11 EREV and offered 2023 models for the previously available BEVs, allowing for lower starting prices. Deliveries of the C11 EREV began in March.

Leapmotor will release an EREV variant of its flagship sedan, the C01, in July-August of this year, the company's founder, chairman and CEO Zhu Jiangming said previously.

Starting with the B-series models, all future new Leapmotor models will be offered in both BEV as well as EREV versions, Zhu said.

In late March, Leapmotor management said the company was targeting 200,000 units in 2023, nearly double the number of units sold in 2022.

Leapmotor delivered 111,168 vehicles in 2022, up 157.80 percent from 43,121 in 2021.

Nio deliveries rebound to 10,707 units in Jun as new models bring relief

delivered 23,520 vehicles in the second quarter, above the lower end of the guidance range of 23,000 to 25,000 vehicles.

Nio (NYSE: NIO) deliveries rebounded to more than 10,000 units as new models, including the new ES6, ET5 Touring and new ES8, began to be delivered.

The electric vehicle (EV) maker delivered 10,707 vehicles in June, up 73.96 percent from 6,155 in May, although down 17.39 percent from 12,961 in the same month last year, according to data released today.

The delivery included 6,383 SUVs, and 4,324 sedans, Nio said, without disclosing figures for specific models.

In the second quarter, Nio delivered 23,520 vehicles, down 6.14 percent from 25,059 in the same period last year and down 24.23 percent from 31,041 in the first quarter.

The second quarter deliveries were slightly above the lower end of the guidance range of 23,000 to 25,000 vehicles it provided on June 9. Nio guided at the time that total revenue for the second quarter would be between RMB 8.742 billion ($1.2 billion) and RMB 9.37 billion.

In the first half of the year, Nio delivered 54,561 vehicles, up 7.35 percent year-on-year.

As of June 30, Nio's cumulative vehicle deliveries reached 344,117 units.

Nio management previously mentioned that the company's goal is to double deliveries this year from last year's 122,486 units.

The figures released today mean that Nio will need to deliver an average of about 32,000 vehicles per month in the second half of the year if it is to achieve that goal.

Nio's delivery rebound in June was helped by the start of deliveries of several new models, particularly the new ES6, which is crucial to it.

The company launched the new ES6, based on the NT 2.0 platform, in China on May 24, and its deliveries began that night.

The new ES6 is currently available in only one version in China, starting at RMB 338,000 including batteries, the cheapest Nio SUV.

NIO's overall new order intake hit a year-to-date high, boosted by the launch of the new ES6, Morgan Stanley analyst Tim Hsiao's team said in a research note sent to investors on June 5.

On June 15, Nio launched the ET5 Touring in China, priced exactly the same as the regular ET5 sedan, which currently starts at RMB 298,000. Deliveries of the model began on June 16.

Hours after the ET5 Touring was launched in China, Nio rolled out the model as well as the EL6, known as the new ES6 in China, in Europe .

Both models will be available in Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark and Norway, and deliveries will both begin in the fourth quarter in Europe.

On June 28, Nio began deliveries in China of the new ES8, the flagship SUV launched on Nio Day 2022, December 24, 2022.

Li Auto delivers record 32,575 vehicles in Jun, aims for 40,000 monthly deliveries in Q4

For the third quarter, targets monthly deliveries for Li L8 and Li L9 at over 10,000 each and aspire to achieve 15,000 Li L7 monthly deliveries.

Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI) delivered a record 32,575 vehicles in June, the first time it surpassed the 30,000 mark, according to data it released today.

That's up 150.12 percent from 13,024 vehicles in the same month last year and up 15.20 percent from 28,277 vehicles in May.

In the second quarter, Li Auto delivered 86,533 vehicles, up 201.65 percent year-on-year and up 64.56 percent from the first quarter.

Deliveries for the second quarter exceeded the upper end of the guidance range it previously provided of 76,000 to 81,000 units. The company previously provided second-quarter revenue guidance of between RMB 24.22 billion yuan ($3.34 billion) and 25.86 billion yuan.

In the first half of the year, Li Auto delivered 139,117 vehicles, up 130.31 percent year-on-year, surpassing last year's full-year deliveries of 133,246.

As of June 30, cumulative deliveries since Li Auto's inception stood at 396,451 vehicles, according to data monitored by CnEVPost.

"Benefiting from the comprehensive enhancement of our organizational processes and operating capabilities, our monthly deliveries exceeded 30,000 for the first time, making Li Auto currently the only Chinese premium brand to achieve this milestone," Li Xiang, founder, chairman and CEO of Li Auto, said.

"For the third quarter, we target monthly deliveries for Li L8 and Li L9 at over 10,000 each and aspire to achieve 15,000 Li L7 monthly deliveries," he added.

In addition, in the fourth quarter, Li Auto will challenge itself to achieve the 40,000-unit monthly delivery mark, Li said.

Li Auto is currently selling all extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs), essentially plug-in hybrids, including the five-seat Li L7 and the six-seat Li L8 and Li L9.

The company said it expects to launch its super flagship 5C BEV model, the Li MEGA, in the fourth quarter and believes it will be a new sales blockbuster in the RMB 500,000 and above price segment.

Li Auto unveiled the Li MEGA name at its first Family Tech Day event on June 17, saying the model would break the conventional perception that high-end pure electric vehicles cannot be hot sellers.

"We are confident that it will be the No. 1 seller of all passenger cars priced at 500,000 yuan or more, regardless of energy form and regardless of body form," the company said at the time.

The Li MEGA will be Li Auto's first foray into the BEV market, and it will be an MPV (multi-purpose vehicle) model, according to information it previously shared.

By 2025, Li Auto's product array will include a super flagship model, five EREVs, and five BEVs, it said on the first day of the Shanghai auto show on April 18.

By then, Li Auto's models for the market priced above RMB 200,000 will fully meet the needs of family users, the company previously said.

Li Auto aims to be the No. 1 seller in the Chinese market for passenger cars priced above 200,000 yuan, with annual deliveries reaching 1.6 million units by 2025, Li re-emphasized in a presentation yesterday to celebrate the company's eighth anniversary.

As of June 30, the company had 331 retail stores in 127 cities, as well as 323 service centers and Li Auto-authorized body and paint stores operating in 223 cities.

is offering customers who buy the Zeekr 001 at least RMB 28,000 worth of option benefits in the third quarter, as it aims to deliver about 140,000 vehicles this year.

's premium electric vehicle (EV) brand Zeekr is back above the 10,000-unit mark in monthly deliveries and is starting to offer limited-time benefits for its flagship model to meet annual delivery targets.

Zeekr delivered 10,620 units in June, up 146.86 percent year-on-year and up 22.38 percent from May, according to data released today.

This is the fifth sequential increase in monthly deliveries for Zeekr. It delivered above 10,000 units each month in the fourth quarter of last year, but deliveries fell to 3,116 units in January, due in part to a plant shutdown for an upgrade.

In the second quarter, Zeekr delivered 27,399 vehicles, up 154.42 percent year-on-year and up 79.85 percent from the first quarter.

In the first half of the year, Zeekr delivered 42,633 vehicles, up 124.27 percent from 19,010 vehicles in the same period last year.

Zeekr aims to double its deliveries this year from last year to about 140,000 units, which means it will need to deliver an average of about 16,230 vehicles per month in the second half of this year.

At the end of June, Zeekr's cumulative deliveries since its inception stood at 120,581 vehicles, according to data monitored by CnEVPost.

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.

On April 12, Zeekr launched its third model, the Zeekr X, and its deliveries in China began on June 12.

To meet full-year sales targets and to address the increasingly competitive EV market, Zeekr today announced the start of a limited-time free option benefit for the Zeekr 001, valid from July-September.

Chinese consumers will receive a free blue exterior trim valued at RMB 6,000 ($830) with the purchase of the entire Zeekr 001 model line.

The Zeekr 001 is currently available in four versions -- WE with a 100-kWh battery pack, WE with an 86 kWh battery pack, ME with a 100 kWh battery pack and YOU with a 100 kWh battery pack, with starting prices of RMB 300,000, RMB 300,000, RMB 349,000 and RMB 349,000 respectively.

Customers who purchase the WE version in the third quarter will receive a free option fund worth RMB 28,000 to receive upgrades including a 100-kWh battery pack, dual-motor 4WD, or air suspension.

Customers who purchase the Zeekr 001 ME Edition will receive a free optional air suspension package worth RMB 28,000.

Customers who purchase the YOU Edition model will receive a free optional Z-Sport package worth RMB 35,000, according to Zeekr.

Li Auto delivers over 32,000 vehicles in Jun, CEO says

This means that had another record month of deliveries in June, and the first time it has surpassed the 30,000-unit mark.

(Image credit: CnEVPost)

It's the practice for China's major electric vehicle (EV) makers to announce their deliveries for the previous month on the first day of each month, and Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI) couldn't wait to share a number today to showcase its strong performance.

Li Auto delivered more than 32,000 vehicles in June, taking premium Chinese brands to a whole new level of sales, its founder, chairman and CEO Li Xiang said in a speech today celebrating the company's eighth anniversary.

The company aims to become the No. 1 seller in the Chinese market for passenger cars priced at more than RMB 200,000 yuan ($27,590) and to reach 1.6 million annual deliveries by 2025, he said, repeating previous remarks.

The latest figure means that Li Auto's deliveries in June reached another record high and were the first time to exceed the 30,000-unit mark, up more than 145 percent from 13,024 units a year earlier.

The company delivered 28,277 vehicles in May, up 145.97 percent year-on-year and up 10.11 percent from April, the third consecutive month to exceed the 20,000-unit mark.

Earlier this week, local media reported that Li Auto had recently raised its full-year sales target to 400,000 units from the original 300,000. However, this was subsequently denied by Li.

Li Auto finished the first half of the year with more than 130,000 units sold and does not have any ability to make it to 400,000 units for the full year, he said on June 27.

The company's capabilities, including product, sales, capacity and organization, cannot support 400,000 units sold this year, and the gap is huge, Li said.

On June 18, Li said on Weibo that most members of Li Auto's management team thought the company should set an annual sales target of 360,000 units at the beginning of the year, but he ultimately decided to set a budget target based on annual sales of 306,000 units.

"This was partly because I didn't think we could be too optimistic about the economic environment this year, and partly because we didn't meet our budget targets for all three years from 2020-2022," he said at the time.

Li said the too-low targets he set led the company to place orders at suppliers at the beginning of the year that were clearly not keeping up with current sales, so several key components would take more than a quarter to reach the right capacity if production ramp-up began now.

CPCA expects China Jun NEV retail sales to grow 15.5% MoM to 670,000

This means that the penetration of NEVs at retail is expected to be 36.6 percent in June, up from 33.3 percent in May.

CPCA expects China Jun NEV retail sales to grow 15.5% MoM to 670,000-CnEVPost

Passenger vehicle sales in China are expected to decline this month compared to a year ago, but the performance of new energy vehicles (NEVs) remains strong.

In June, retail sales of NEVs in China are expected to be around 670,000 units, up 26 percent year-on-year and up 15.5 percent from May, according to estimates released today by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).

Survey shows that automakers that contribute about 80 percent of passenger car sales are targeting retail sales growth of about 5 percent in June compared with May, the CPCA said.

According to preliminary projections, passenger vehicle sales in China were about 1.83 million units in June, up 5 percent from May but down 5.9 percent from a year earlier, the CPCA said.

The year-on-year decline was due to a high base in June last year, when China's auto market was recovering from the shock of Covid, according to the CPCA.

The CPCA had forecast several times this month that June passenger car sales would be lower than a year ago, one reason being China's halving of purchase taxes on mainstream internal combustion engine vehicles that began last June.

Today's latest estimate implies that NEVs had a penetration rate of about 36.6 percent at retail in June, up from 33.3 percent in May.

CPCA expects China Jun NEV retail sales to grow 15.5% MoM to 670,000-CnEVPost

Auto market demand dropped slightly in early June, but the market warmed up with the start of the June 18 shopping spree, the release of local government subsidies and the Dragon Boat Festival, the CPCA said.

The overall discount rate in China's passenger car market was about 17.8 percent in mid-June, expanding 0.6 percent from the end of May, according to the CPCA.

Major carmakers averaged 31,100 daily retail sales in the first week of June, down 42 percent from the same period in May, mainly due to a high base of vehicle sales during last month's Labor Day holiday, the CPCA said.

Their average daily retail sales in the second week of June were 42,900 units, down 14 percent from the second week of May.

As promotions kicked off in mid-June, the car market picked up in the third week, with average daily retail sales of 57,500 units, up 21 percent from the same week in May.

In the fourth week, with the arrival of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, average daily retail sales are expected to be 62,000 units, an increase of 26 percent over the same period in May.

In week five, average daily retail is expected to be 113,700 units, up 32 percent from the same period in May, due to the pulse of the quarter-end sales, according to the CPCA.

This means that Tesla's share of the BEV market in China was 10.96 percent in May, slightly higher than April's 10.8 percent. It had a slightly lower share of the NEV market in May than the 7.58 percent it had in April.

Tesla's Shanghai plant exported 35,187 vehicles in May, considering the CPCA said on June 5 that Tesla sold 77,695 China-made vehicles in May.
