China’s GWM Hit Record Low in Sales Growth in April

Sales of Great Wall Motor in China were 79,607, a yearly rise of 1.7%, in April. However, growth in April got smaller compared with that in March.

Sales of GMW totaled 313,033 in the first four months in 2016, increasing by 4.65% compared with that of last year. However, GMW had double-digit yearly increase in sales only in February. Yearly increase was about 3% in both January and March, and got smaller in April, hitting the record this year.

SUVs still remains the hottest models. Sales of SUVs were 67,021, a yearly rise of 7.93% in April. Sales totaled 259,378 in the first four months, increasing by 9.16% from that a year earlier. Sales of H6 were 43,946 with a yearly rise of 42.8% in April, remaining hot for customers in China. But that decreased on the monthly base. Sales of H6 totaled 165,271 in the first four months, better than other models. On the contrary, sales of H2, the other hot model before, were only 10,711, further decreasing in April. Yearly rise of H2 dropped considerably, probably making GMW suffer decrease in sales in the future. Fortunately, H7, debuting recently on the 2016 Beijing Auto Show made great performance, reaping sales of more than 1,000 during several days. Sales of H8 were 628, a yearly rise of more than 100%, making better performance. And sales of H9 were 1,181 with a yearly rise of 17.16%, also better than before.
