On the whole, after this round of price increase, the demand side will gradually return to the normal level after a short decline.

The market has always been worried about the demand and sales volume of electric vehicles, but the whole Q1 electric vehicles are full of toughness, and the response of terminal sales volume has always exceeded expectations. Since the terminal sales volume of Q2 reflects the new balance of supply and demand after the price rise, Q2 sector will usher in a decisive battle and continue to be firmly optimistic.
