Chinese carmakers represent 8.5% of the European BEV market in the first quarter of 2024
05 July 2024
- While Chinese carmakers represent only 2.5% of the European light vehicles market (passenger cars and light utility vehicles), all motorisations combined, over the first four months of 2024 (27 European Union countries + United Kingdom + Switzerland + Norway), they already represent 8,5% of the European battery electric vehicles market (BEV) over the same period. They have in fact registered just over 50,000 BEVs out of 594,000 BEVs between January and April 2024.

- This situation demonstrates that Chinese carmakers have mainly entered in Europe thanks to their battery electric models, and this sales volume does not take into account European models imported from China, such as the Smart or the Dacia Spring. If we include these three models, the market share of BEVs imported from China increases to 11% over the first four months of 2024.

- If we also include the BMW iX3 and Tesla Model 3 imported from China which are not assembled in factories owned by Chinese carmakers, the market share of BEVs imported from China rises to 17%.

- What are the best-selling Chinese BEV brands in Europe in the first quarter of 2024?
- The MG brand (belonging to the SAIC group) is in the clearly taking the lead as it sold 27,000 BEV over the period, or 54% of all Chinese brands, i.e. more than half.
- In second position, BYD registered 10,000 BEV sales, a strong growth compared to the first four months of 2023 (i.e. 20% of all Chinese brands).
- In third position, Polestar (6,500 sales, or 13% of all Chinese brands).
- The other Chinese brands represent 6,500 sales or 13% of all Chinese brands.

French carmakers were the biggest beneficiaries from the new ecological bonuses in France
05 July 2024
- We observed in a previous Auto-Analysis that the end of ecological bonuses in France on cars imported from outside Europe at the end of 2023 had mainly impacted sales of the Dacia Spring which is imported from China, but also at a lower level, the Tesla Model 3 and MG imported from China. The other models suffered relatively less because their sales volume still remains low at the moment, notably BYD and other not yet known Chinese brands, as well as the Volvo EX30 imported from China with a relative success.

- Which brands have benefited from the end of bonuses in France on cars imported from outside Europe at the end of 2023?
- Even if the hypothesis saying that customers of cars imported from China might postponed their purchase for more than six months or shifted to the purchase of a thermal model, full (FHEV) or plug-in (PHEV) hybrids, what seems to be the most likely is that a good part of these customers have decided to purchase a battery electric vehicle (BEV) produced in Europe and therefore eligible for the ecological bonus.
- In this case and in this case only, we can observe that six brands saw their BEV sales increase suddenly and significantly in France from January 2024: five brands of the Stellantis group (Peugeot, Fiat, Opel, Citroën, Jeep) and Renault, these six brands having been able to benefit from delayed purchases, initially planned for Chinese carmakers models, given that the French BEV market as a whole remained stable between January and April 2024.
