In Ukraine, Chinese electric cars and hybrid vehicles are currently in huge demand. But it is interesting to see which cars are chosen directly by residents of China.

During the first six months of the year, 10.9 million cars were sold in China, which is 10.8% more than in the same period last year.

The top models are grouped by price ranges (in brackets — approximate price in hryvnias, based on an exchange rate of about 5 hryvnias per yuan):

Up to 100 thousand yuan (up to 500 thousand UAH):

  • Geely Geome Xingyuan — 204 thousand units

  • BYD Seagull — 175 thousand

  • Wuling Hongguang Mini EV — 171 thousand

  • BYD Qin Plus — 164 thousand

  • Volkswagen Lavida — 137 thousand

From 100 to 150 thousand yuan (approximately 500–750 thousand UAH):

  • BYD Qin Plus — 164 thousand

  • Geely Xingyue L — 146 thousand

  • BYD Song Plus — 137 thousand

  • Volkswagen Lavida — 137 thousand

  • Nissan Sylphy — 136 thousand

From 150 to 250 thousand yuan (750 thousand – 1.25 million UAH):

  • BYD Qin Plus — 164 thousand

  • Xiaomi SU7 — 156 thousand

  • Geely Xingyue L — 146 thousand

  • BYD Song Plus — 137 thousand

  • Volkswagen Lavida — 137 thousand

From 250 to 350 thousand yuan (1.25–1.75 million UAH):

  • Tesla Model Y — 172 thousand

  • Xiaomi SU7 — 156 thousand

  • Toyota Camry — 98 thousand

  • Toyota RAV4 — 97 thousand

  • Li Auto L6 — 96 thousand

From 350 to 500 thousand yuan (1.75–2.5 million UAH):

  • Audi A6L — 84 thousand

  • BMW 3 Series — 80 thousand

  • Mercedes-Benz GLC — 70 thousand

  • Mercedes-Benz C-Class — 70 thousand

  • Audi Q5L — 67 thousand

Over 500 thousand yuan (from 2.5 million UAH):

  • Audi A6L — 84 thousand

  • Mercedes-Benz GLC — 70 thousand

  • Mercedes-Benz E-Class — 66 thousand

  • Aito M9 — 60 thousand

  • BMW 5 Series — 59 thousand

As experts note, in all categories up to 250 thousand yuan, Chinese electric cars and hybrids lead. And when the Xiaomi factory operates at full capacity, perhaps even the Tesla Model Y will lose its position in more expensive segments.
