HIMA delivered 33,537 vehicles in October, down 50.84% year on year and 10.54% from September. CnEVPost says it was the alliance's fifth straight year-on-year decline, its fourth straight monthly decline and its lowest total since April.
The numbers
October: 33,537, down 50.84% (September was down 29.15%)
January to October: 400,766, down 3.91% (after nine months it was still up 5.27%)
Cumulative deliveries: more than 1.6 million
Average transaction price: above 400,000 yuan ($59,580), HIMA says
HIMA did not break out October deliveries by brand or model. Inside China Auto also lists 33,537, down 51%, in its October roundup.
Context
The drop follows a run of launches: the Luxeed RX and updated Luxeed R7 in September, reservations for the Stelato V8 and pre-sales of the updated Aito M8. CnEVPost also reports that Huawei is adjusting its partnership arrangements within the alliance.
