According to the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA), China's passenger vehicle retail market in 2026 is exhibiting a clear trend of consumption upgrading and divergent growth. Driven by the national "Two New" policies, diversified domestic demand and exports are reshaping regional automotive market dynamics. Specifically: First, vehicle segments are sharply diverging—policy support favors premium models, while economy cars remain sluggish. Second, regional growth is uneven, with northern regions unlocking potential and southern China demonstrating robust performance. Third, powertrain preferences are diverging—hybrid vehicles are gaining popularity in certain areas, whereas plug-in hybrids are showing significant weakness. Fourth, C-segment vehicles and large three-row SUVs are selling well, with particularly strong demand for large SUVs in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, and other regions.
