The world's 20 best-selling electric cars, autonomous 9, hard to beat Tesla?

China is the world's largest producer and consumer of electric vehicles, with China's huge market demand and the country's subsidy policy for the new energy automobile industry, China's electric vehicles in a very short period of time has been the faster development. Various independent brands have launched pure electric vehicles and are trying to realize the bend in the field of pure electric vehicles to overtake foreign automobile brands.

Because in the era of the internal combustion engine, the strength of independent brands of cars is not as good as foreign auto brands. For the majority of independent brand cars, electric cars are an opportunity to realize the bending road to overtake, and in recent years in the Chinese market has also given birth to a very large number of new car-making power companies, which is very rare in the world, so who is the most powerful in the whole January to November 2019 global electric car sales?

In this article, we will give you a list of the top 20 electric car sales in January to November 2019 list.

Tesla Model?3 rode to the top

Ranked first is the Tesla Model?3 sales of 247,011 units, through the sales we can see that the Tesla Model 3's lead is very obvious, which reminds me of in the era of the smartphone Apple 4, when the Apple 4 was launched the lead is also very obvious, and then after a It took a year or two for Android phones to take off. The Tesla Model 3 is very much like the Apple 4, so we can judge that the Tesla Model 3 will still maintain the leading edge in the next 1~2 years, and because the Tesla Model 3 has realized the domestic production, the price is further lowered, and now the price of the entry level is less than 300,000 yuan, so it is very cost-effective for Chinese consumers.

Nine models from independent brands made the list

The second-ranked model is the BAIC EU series, and the third-ranked model is the BYD Yuan. These two cars are independent brand cars, independent brands in addition to these two models, there are Chery EQ, BYD Tang PHEV, Geely Dihao EV, BYD e5, the Great Wall Ola R1, SAIC Rongwei Ei5, and so on very many independent brand models on the list, in the top 20 sales list, independent brands accounted for 9 seats, can be said to be very powerful.

But there is still a big gap between the combined sales of these nine models and Tesla's, because the Tesla Model 3, Tesla Model?X and Tesla Model?S, all three of which made the list. Therefore, the current status of the global electric car industry is Tesla riding in the dust, the major automobile brands can not be expected, China's own brand on the list more, but compared with Tesla there is still a big gap.

Besides, other models such as the Nissan LEAF, BMW's 530e, Renault's Zoe, and Mitsubishi's Outlander PHEV are on the list, but although their global popularity is very high, their sales in the Chinese market are almost negligible, because they are all imported.

Compared with these imported models, Chinese consumers now prefer to choose the Tesla Model 3, a domestically produced model, and in addition to Tesla, consumers are choosing more independent brands.

New energy vehicles are still polarized

From this list, it's easy to see that new energy vehicles are still polarized, and the polarization here is mainly in two areas: one is the polarization of prices, and the other is the polarization of model sizes.

First of all, the price of Tesla BMW as the representative of the high-end pure electric car sales is very good, is the first choice of high-end consumers, in addition to most other models are oriented to low-end consumers, the price is also in the 200,000 yuan or even lower.

Secondly, the size of the models is polarized, few of the models on the list are medium-sized cars, most of them are small cars or small SUVs. In fact, for pure electric vehicles, size and range have always been contradictory, if the size increases, the weight will increase, and the range will naturally decrease. If the size decreases, then the battery capacity will be reduced accordingly, and the range will also be low. So in the future as an electric car, how to increase the size of the car to meet consumer demand for space under the premise of solving the contradiction between the battery capacity and range is still very important.

Independent brands still have the opportunity to overtake

In my opinion, independent brands still have the opportunity to overtake, for the following reasons. First of all, in addition to Tesla, the current global pure electric vehicle market, the No. 2 fight is very intense, whether it is a traditional manufacturer, or the new car-making power companies have not yet clearly demonstrated the advantage.

Secondly, many of China's new car-making companies are very similar to Tesla in terms of car-making concepts, just because they are now in the financing stage, the current sales have not completed the climb, and in the future, if the new style of company can realize the rise, then it is possible to form a positive competition with Tesla.

The third is that in the next year or two, Mercedes-Benz, BMW Audi and many other joint ventures will be domestic pure electric vehicles in China, for the independent brand, in the next 1 ~ 2 years, there are further consolidation of the market to launch models of opportunities. And currently the world's major battery makers are building factories in China, so the Chinese market is still a great opportunity for development, the independent brand also has a lot of room for improvement.
