On February 9, the Federation of Passenger Cars released the latest retail sales statistics. In January, the retail sales of domestic narrow passenger car market reached 1.293 million units, down 37.9% year on year and down 40.4% month on month. Sales of fuel vehicles fell 45.1 percent year on year, and new-energy models also fell 6.3 percent year on year.

As the New Year's Eve in 2023 falls in January, the number of working days in January will be reduced by half. Meanwhile, the number of people returning to their hometowns during the Spring Festival will increase, leading to a decline in the overall sales volume in January. However, generally speaking, the negative growth in January is in line with industry expectations.

Byd Yuan PLUS narrowly beat Tesla Model Y to take second place with 158 units. Yuan PLUS is a pure electric SUV built by BYD based on the e platform 3.0. Meanwhile, the appearance and interior of Yuan PLUS are very fashionable, which is completely different from other BYD models, so it has impressed many young people who pursue fashion. In addition, BYD Yuan PLUS is also the main force of BYD in the overseas market. According to relevant forecasts, the export volume of Yuan PLUS is expected to reach more than 200,000 yuan this year.

 On January 6, 2023, Tesla announced that it would lower the price of most models, and the price of Tesla Model Y after the price reduction was 259,900 yuan, which was lower than that in history. However, Tesla models produced at the Shanghai Gigafactory are preferentially delivered abroad in the first two months of each quarter and domestically in the last month, so it is not yet clear how Tesla's sales will fare after the price cut. But I'm looking forward to Tesla's investor day in March to see what Musk comes up with. A new platform with lower costs? Or the long-rumored Model Q.

As the flagship SUV of BYD family, BYD Tang Family is favored by many people for its spacious space, abundant power and ultra-low vehicle cost. Byd Tang family includes the Tang DM-i, the Tang DM-p, the Tang DM-P, and the Tang EV, the Tang EV, the main pure electric SUV. Each model has its unique charm, and these three models together are enough to make every competitor shudders.

Ideal is a dark horse in this list. Ideal L9 is the L-series model after Ideal ONE. As a large SUV priced at 459,800 yuan, the Ideal L9 ranked fifth on the list, which is not easy. The ideal competitor is clear, just for the "BBA". In addition, the ideal car can achieve such good sales because the ideal understands what consumers want. Consumers like large space, ideal L9 it has; Consumers like a luxurious interior, and the Ideal L9 also has that, as well as a "color TV and refrigerator"; Consumers want high cost performance, ideal to launch a slightly smaller size, but a lot of configuration L7 and L8. After the official delivery of Ideal L7, I believe that the three brothers "Ideal 789" will be included in the list.

Shortly after the start of 2023, Tesla started a price war, and many new energy manufacturers such as Xiaopeng and Ask began to follow suit and join the war. In addition, as the focus of the new energy industry, if Tesla comes up with a new platform with lower cost or a new model with lower price in March, then the domestic new energy market will suffer a significant reshuffle.
