Multiple automakers flood the market with new energy station wagons, intensifying competition even in the off-season

Despite being in a traditionally slow sales season, China's auto market has entered a period of intense competition right from the start of the year. Recently, numerous automakers have shifted their focus toward launching new energy-powered station wagons—a niche segment that has long been seen as "popular in reviews but poor in sales." Nevertheless, manufacturers are heavily investing resources and accelerating their moves into this space. Industry insiders caution that although market enthusiasm is high, both consumers and companies should maintain a rational perspective and avoid blindly following the trend.
