Zero run first, Nezha firmly in the top three

Xiaopeng’s performance is stable, and Weilai and ideal are dragged down by the supply chain
Among the three new power car enterprises of “Wei Xiaoli”, Xiaopeng’s performance is relatively stable.
In April 2022, Xiaopeng delivered 9002 vehicles. From January to April 2022, Xiaopeng delivered 43563 cars, a year-on-year increase of 136%.
In April, Xiaopeng automobile failed to “deliver more than 10000 vehicles” again, but the achievement of 9002 vehicles still made Xiaopeng the runner up in the delivery volume of new power automobile enterprises. Since September 2021, when the monthly delivery exceeded 10000 for the first time, so far, Xiaopeng automobile has only delivered 10000 vehicles in February and April 2022.
Weilai delivered 5074 vehicles in April. By the end of April 2022, Weilai had delivered 197912 intelligent electric vehicles in total. In April, Weilai was greatly affected by the shortage of supply chain. On April 9, Li Bin, chairman of Weilai automobile, said that affected by the epidemic, the company’s supply chain partners in Jilin, Shanghai, Jiangsu and other places have stopped production since March. Due to the above reasons, the delivery of vehicles of many users will be delayed recently.
Since 2022, the growth rate of Weilai automobile sales has slowed down. According to the analysis of insiders, Weilai’s high bicycle price and the current aging product strength are the important reasons for its slowdown. The main sales of 693 new cars before the launch of ec6 and EC4 will be realized in August 2026.
Weilai said that 2022 es8, ES6 and ec6 equipped with the latest intelligent cockpit hardware are expected to be released in late May, and the new big five seat SUV ES7 will also be released simultaneously. In addition, Weilai will deliver et5 models in the third quarter of 2022.
The delivery volume of ideal car in April was 4167, a new low since this year. The new ideal L9 originally planned to be released in April was also postponed due to the cancellation of Beijing auto show.
Shen Yanan, co-founder and President of ideal automobile, said that since the end of March, the supply chain, logistics and production of the whole industry have been seriously disturbed due to the rebound of the epidemic in the Yangtze River Delta. Ideal automobile Changzhou base and more than 80% of its suppliers are located in the Yangtze River Delta, and some suppliers cannot supply or stop production completely. After digesting the existing spare parts inventory, it can not continue to maintain production, which has a great impact on the production of ideal cars in April, resulting in the delay of new car delivery of some users.
