◆ On November 7, 2019, at the China Automotive Industry Development Forum held during the Second China International Import Expo, Hu Jianping, deputy director of the Marketing System Construction Department of the Ministry of Commerce, said that the Ministry of Commerce is stepping up the development of automobile scrapping rules and standards.
◆ Hu Jianping said, "From a global perspective, the growth rate of sales in the automotive market has slowed down year by year since 2015. From China's own perspective, after the automotive market has grown continuously for more than 20 years, there has been a lack of growth in the past two years, 2018. The sales volume of new cars was 28.081 million units, down 2.8%; the sales volume of new cars from January to September 2031 was 18.371 million units, down 10.3% year-on-year. It is expected that the level of automobile sales will be at the level of 2014-2015 at the end of this year."
◆ At the same time, Hu Jianping said that due to the pressure of downward pressure on the macro economy, the slowdown in the growth of residents' income, the increasing constraints on resources and environment brought about by the continuous growth of car ownership, and the changes in the concept of automobile consumption, the rapid development of automobiles in China The stage has basically ended, and the new car market has entered a new normal of low-speed growth. However, while the growth rate is slowing down, the Chinese auto market has already had the basis and conditions for accelerating the development of high quality. In just a few years, it has achieved rapid growth, reaching 250 million vehicles. The car ownership has provided a solid foundation for promoting the consumption of automobile use. The used car market has developed rapidly. In recent years, the growth rate is obviously faster than the new car market, and it has become a new driving factor for car consumption. Power; the automobile consumption demand is obviously changing, and it is gradually shifting from low-end homogenization products to high-end personalized products. From product consumption to product and service consumption, for example, since last year, although the overall sales volume of automobiles has declined, Sales of high-end brands and luxury cars are significantly better than mid- to low-end cars. In short, the positive factors of high-quality development in the automotive market are accumulating.
