However, it is worth noting that, unlike the previous situation where Nezha led the second place by a large margin, this month, as Nezha’s sales fell by about 3,000 units, the sales of the second ideal car increased significantly. growth, Nezha's lead is already very weak.

The national subsidy is coming to an end, and car companies have pushed "price protection" policies
At present, new energy car companies, including the above-mentioned new car-making forces, are facing the risks brought about by the reduction of state subsidies.
According to the plan, the national subsidy for new energy vehicles will be withdrawn from January 1, 2023. In order to welcome the price increase next year and attract consumers to buy cars, many new car manufacturers have also issued price adjustment statements or "limited-time price guarantee" statements.
On December 1, Jikr Automobile announced that orders for all Jikr 001 series placed before December 31, 2022 (inclusive) can still enjoy a lifetime vehicle warranty; orders placed for YOU version models can still enjoy lifetime free Charging; if the order for the WE version of the model is not completed within 2022 due to Jikrypton, Jikrypton will provide users with a subsidy for the difference in accordance with the 2022 new energy state subsidy policy.
On November 30, Xiaopeng Motors released a statement on the time-limited price guarantee of the national subsidy in 2022, saying that orders that complete the deposit payment before 24:00 on December 31, 2022, can enjoy the 2022 national new energy subsidy. The difference will be borne by Xiaopeng Motors.
On November 24, AITO Wenjie announced that it will add 10,000 national subsidy guarantee quotas.
From the first 10,000 users who have completed the deposit payment and have not refunded, if due to Wenjie’s reasons, they have not completed the registration before the end of the national subsidy on December 31, Wenjie will subsidize the price difference according to relevant standards, and the maximum amount will reach 11340 yuan.
In addition, car companies including BYD, Changan Deep Blue, Geely Automobile, etc. have also issued price adjustment statements for new energy models.
December this year is the last month before the national subsidy for new energy vehicles is withdrawn. According to the past rules, both car companies and consumers hope to seize the final policy bonus period, and there may be a hike in December.
