Although the sales of SAIC Chase, SAIC Shenwo, SAIC Iveco and Nanjing Iveco decreased year-on-year, their sales bases were too small to "drag down" SAIC's overall sales. Therefore, SAIC-Volkswagen, SAIC-GM, SAIC passenger cars, SAIC-GM-Wuling and SAIC Skoda are the real drag bottles for SAIC's sales decline.
SAIC Skoda, originally relying on the "thigh" of SAIC Volkswagen, has a good reputation for cost performance, and SAIC Skoda can also make great achievements in the China market. However, its market performance in recent years is not satisfactory; In Che Kuaiping's view, the main reason is the deterioration of word of mouth. Not to mention the flagship models such as Ming Rui, which have been on the complaint list for many times, and the behaviors such as simple matching are criticized by many consumers. Judging from the sales situation in the first half of the year, it has become a drag; With Jetta's "independence", it may seriously divert the original Skoda consumer groups, so its sales decline in the second half of the year is "expected to continue".
Finally, SAIC passenger cars, although the overall sales in the first half of the year maintained a year-on-year growth trend; SUV models such as RX5 performed well, while sales of Roewe i6, Roewe i5 and Roewe 360 were relatively bleak.
