Income & economic expectation improvement is more effective than policy stimulation, and total passenger car demand is not pessimistic in 2023. Passenger car retail sales are expected to increase slightly and wholesale sales to grow slightly in 2022, in line with the judgment we gave after the fuel car purchase tax halving policy was implemented in May: the effect of this round of policy stimulation will be weaker than in 2015. Currently, China's passenger car purchase ratio exceeds 50%, household ownership has increased significantly, and purchase decisions are more influenced by economic & income expectations. Optimizing epidemic prevention and control policies and improving financial expectations, we are optimistic about total passenger car demand in 2023.
