China’s Latest Valuation Report: Domestic Electric Cars Show Strong Resilience
On April 1, 2025, at 12:22 PM, the China Automotive Industry Association published the 2025 Valuation Report, which highlights the remarkable resilience of domestically produced electric vehicles (EVs). According to the report, electric sedans and SUVs continue to maintain high valuation rates compared to other vehicle categories. The data indicates that the average valuation for electric sedans stands at 59%, while SUVs follow closely at 55.8% and 55.4%, respectively.
The report notes that the overall market for electric vehicles is currently facing new challenges due to pricing pressures and increased competition. As a result, the valuation for electric sedans is projected to be stable, but the market will continue to experience fluctuations driven by consumer demand and market dynamics.
The data reveals that the valuation for MPVs and mid-sized vehicles is relatively high, at 59%, 55.8%, and 55.4%. In contrast, compact cars, small SUVs, and mid-sized SUVs are experiencing lower valuations, typically below 51%. Notably, compact cars have the lowest valuation rate at 48.8%.
Market analyses indicate that there is an ongoing decline in the valuation rates for compact and entry-level vehicles, leading to a shrinking space for growth. The demand for these vehicles is also diminishing, reflecting a trend that suggests consumers are opting for higher-end models with better features and performance.
Despite these trends, the valuation for traditional fuel vehicles remains stable, with the respective rates for sedans and SUVs reported at 57.3% and 56.3%. This indicates a consistent preference for established brands among consumers.
The report highlights that the valuation for electric vehicles is under pressure due to the increasing availability of various models, which has intensified competition. As the electric vehicle market continues to grow, manufacturers are focusing on enhancing the quality and technology of their offerings to retain consumer interest.
In conclusion, while the valuation for electric vehicles remains robust, it faces challenges from the evolving market landscape. The data underscores the need for manufacturers to adapt quickly to consumer preferences and market trends to sustain their competitive edge.
