"Plugin vehicles continue to be all the rage in the Chinese auto market.
Plugins stayed in the fast lane in August, growing
92% year over year (YoY).
They scored over 552,000 registrations last month. Plugin hybrids (PHEVs)
surged
137% year over year (YoY). They reached 140,000 registrations in
August, which is their fourth record month in row. It seems the Chinese version
of PHEVs, with an average of 30-plus kWh batteries and working more as EREVs,
has struck a chord with buyers. As for BEVs, they grew a “paltry” 80% … to
412,000 units.
Share-wise, with August showing another strong performance, plugin vehicles hit
30% market share. And the share could have gone higher, if the overall
passenger car market hadn’t surged 29% last month thanks to recent registration
tax reductions.
Full electrics (BEVs) alone accounted for 22% of the country’s auto sales last
month! This kept the 2022 share at 26% plugins and 20% BEVs.
If electrification continues at this pace, this market will be BEV-based by
2025! Imagine that: the largest automotive market in the world being BEV-based
in three years time!
Another measure of the importance of this market is the fact that China alone
represented over 60% of global plugin registrations last month."
