In February, the sales volume of new energy vehicles was 334000, with a year-on-year increase of 184.3%
On March 11, the China Automobile Association released the automobile production and sales data in February, of which the sales volume of new energy vehicles was 334000, with a year-on-year increase of 184.3% and a month on month decrease of 18.6%, which is in line with market expectations. With regard to the production and sales data of new energy vehicles in the first quarter, we believe that the focus should be on the data in the next March. The continuous rise in the price of upstream raw materials will have a certain impact on the midstream power battery and downstream new energy vehicle enterprises. The shutdown impact of some models below 100000 yuan may be reflected in the production and sales data in March and the second quarter. It is suggested to pay close attention to the price change of lithium carbonate and the capacity expansion progress of lithium resources of major manufacturers.
