Cui Dongshu: In October, China's automobile exports reached 0.59 million units, a year-on-year increase of 11%.
Cui Dongshu, the secretary-general of the Passenger Car Association, stated that in October 2024, China's automobile exports reached 0.59 million units, an 11% year-on-year increase from October 2023 and a 3% decrease compared to last month, with stable year-on-year and month-on-month trends.
Cui Dongshu: Maintaining growth is not enough to rely solely on trade-in incentives. Tax incentives for car purchases are needed to stimulate first-time buyers to purchase cars.
Currently, the good effects of the trade-in policy bring a strong year-end momentum. However, this rush will lead to greater pressure on consumer activity in early 2025. Therefore, in early 2025, a strong counterforce is needed to offset the pressure of a weaker consumer year. Thus, relying solely on trade-in for stable growth in 2025 is insufficient; tax benefits on vehicle purchases are necessary to encourage first-time buyers to purchase vehicles.
