The sales in May were less than 10,000 units, compared with last year's result of over 20,000 units. The difference is huge.Since the beginning of this year, the low-end commercial MPV market represented by Wuling Hongguang has generally been weak. In the first five months of this year, Wuling Hongguang sold 75,424 units, down 35.3% year-on-year.

It is worth noting that Wuling Jiachen, a 7-seat household MPV launched by the Wuling brand, performed well in May, with pre-sale sales reaching 1,258 units.It is understood that the pre-sale price of Wuling Jiachen is 69,800-105,800 yuan, which is lower than the "big four" Wuling Capgemini but still overlaps.For a long time, the homogenization competition of Wuling brand internal products has always existed. Whether Wuling Capgemini and Wuling Jiachen will contain each other in the future, and whether one will grow or lose the other, is worthy of attention.

In May, the decline of Buick GL8 narrowed, down 25.8% year-on-year to 9,067 units, reflecting the firmness of the high-end MPV "one brother".With the surge of entrants in the domestic MPV market, the Buick brand has also opened a new round of brand upwards.At the beginning of June, SAIC-GM Buick officially unveiled its flagship MPV Buick GL8 Century, leading the Buick brand to open up a new luxury MPV segment.

The cumulative sales volume of the former is 26,460 units, and the latter is 50,877 units.

In the context of the general decline in sales year-on-year, the Maple Leaf 80V has suddenly emerged. Its sales in May reached 1,862 units, a significant increase of 349.8% year-on-year, but the car is mainly for theonlinecar-hailing market.In March last year, the Maple Leaf 80V was officially launched.
