China February 2025

27% BEV Share so far, in 2025.

45% share if we include PHEVs.

Expect H1 to end with the PEV share above 50% and the last months of the year should end above 66% share (BEV+PHEV).

Even at a moderate growth rates, say an average of 15% per year, the Chinese automotive market should be fully electrified by 2030!

Xiaomi SU7 already appears in #4, being the best selling sedan in China, all powertrains counted!

Will the upcoming Xiaomi YU7 beat the SU7's success and become China's Best Selling Model, all powertrains included? 

BYD recovered ground, all while Tesla dropped out of the Top 5. 

Is Tesla becoming irrelevant in China?

World EV Sales - January 2025

 

Tesla is no longer the Best Selling BEV Maker in the World - 

That is now BYD.

Heck, it isn't even the 2nd BEV Maker in the World - That is now Geely!!!

Yep, Tesla started the year in 3rd, among BEV makers...

- Looking at the bright side of Tesla, the Model Y is still the Best Selling EV in the World;

- But the surprise of the month was the Geely Geome Xingyuan (Who?!?!), that started the year in 3rd and relegated the Tesla Model 3 to 3rd;

- Oh, and a certain Xiaomi SU7 is already 6th globally...despite only being sold in China.

- Podium with BYD, Tesla and Geely;

- Best Selling Legacy brand (Volkswagen) is only 5th;

- Geely Group has three brands (Geely, Volvo and Lynk & Co) in the Top 20.

- Whether BEV only, or adding PHEVs, the podium is the same - #1 BEV; #2 Geely; #3 Tesla;

- The other two positions also remain the same, with or without PHEVs - #4 VW Group and #5 SAIC.

China January 2025

24% BEV Share in 2024

42% share if we include PHEVs.

The last months of the year should end above 66% share (BEV+PHEV)!

And even at a moderate growth rates, say an average of 15% per year, the Chinese automotive market should be fully electrified by 2030!

Geely places the small Xinguan in #2. A sign that the BYD Song and Tesla Model Y will have another model trying to surpass them in 2025?

Geely is rising (fast). Should BYD start to worry?
