On January 3, BYD Automobile announced its sales figures for December 2021, and sales of passenger cars in December were 97,990 units, of which 92,823 new energy models were sold, achieving substantial growth again.
With the release of the December sales data, BYD's cumulative sales in 2021 have also been revealed. In 2021, BYD's cumulative sales of passenger cars were 730093 units, an increase of 75.4% year-on-year; the cumulative sales of new energy models 593745 units, an increase of 231.6% year-on-year. Among them, the new energy model once again broke the new record of the domestic new energy market created by itself.
In 2008, BYD's first new energy model and the world's first mass-produced plug-in hybrid new energy vehicle- F3DM was officially launched. In May this year, BYD rolled off the production line for the 1 millionth new energy vehicle, becoming the first car company in China to complete the launch of one million new energy passenger vehicles. Up to now, the cumulative production and sales of BYD new energy passenger cars have exceeded 1.51 million units, and from this point of view, the second one million by-energy models of BYD will obviously be greatly shortened, and it is expected to shorten from the first 1 million units in more than 12 years to less than 2 years.
In terms of sales composition, BYD EV model sales in 2021 were 320,810 units, an increase of 144.9% year-on-year;D and the cumulative sales of M models were 272935 units, an increase of 467.6%. After the full installation of blade batteries and DM-i super hybrid systems at the beginning of this year, the sales growth of DM models was particularly obvious. And this also makes BYD's new energy present a pure electric and plug-in hybrid "two legs, walking in tandem" situation, which is also the most stable new energy development route at present.
On the other hand, it is worth noting that the surge in SALES OF BYD's new energy is not based on the entry-level low-cost low-endurance model pull, from the current layout of BYD's new energy models, most of the models are more than 100,000 levels, and according to statistics, bydir passenger unit price exceeded 150,000 yuan in 2021, which also reflects BYD new energy not only on the sales data eye-catching, but also reflects its high gold content.
These are all thanks to BYD's leading technology in the fields of DM-i super hybrid, e-platform 3.0, blade battery and other fields, which are favored by technology kings, and constantly explore and deepen the technology brand, and jointly promote the BYD automobile brand all the way forward.
Specific to the detailed models, BYD Han achieved the sixth monthly sales of 2121 in December, reaching 13,701 units, and the cumulative sales volume in 2021 exceeded 117,000 units. At present, the price of all BYDHan models is in the range of more than 200,000, and the competitors he faces are basically joint venture brand models.
BYD Tang's sales reached 9,000 units in December, and the cumulative sales volume in 2021 was 54,204 units, and with the continuous improvement of DM-i hybrid system and blade battery production capacity, BYD Tang's pick-up cycle will be further shortened, and sales are bound to climb further.
BYD Song's sales in December exceeded 20,000 again, reaching 22,386 vehicles, with a cumulative sales volume of 200,870 vehicles in 2021. At the end of December 2021, the new Song Pro DM-i was officially launched, and the price range was basically on par with pure fuel models of the same size class, redefining the new value benchmark of the 150,000-class SUV. The number of orders for new cars on the first day of pre-sale reached 18,116 units, and the momentum is very strong, and in 2022, BYD Song is bound to launch an impact on the SUV sales champion.
Another major attraction of BYD in 2021 is the opening of a new marine series model, the first model of the marine series, BYD Dolphin with high value, large space, low energy consumption characteristics, in December sales for the first time exceeded 10,000 units, reaching 10,016 units, for the ocean model to make a good start.
The realization of all this, in addition to leading technology and powerful products, also benefits from the dividends of brand promotion. It is reported that in the new 2022, BYD Automobile will implement a new brand strategy: two more, three leading, not only in the Chinese market, not only in the automotive field; leading technology, market leadership and quality leadership. In addition to the ready-to-go Yuan PLUS, Destroyer 05, Han DM-i and other models, the new high-end brands, as well as the new MPV are expected to officially meet us in 2022, and 2022 will be a year of full bloom for BYD.
