Geely, Changan, and GAC Set Ambitious 2025 Sales Targets Amid Fierce Competition
Leading Chinese automakers Geely, Changan, and GAC have announced aggressive double-digit growth targets for 2025, aiming to expand market share despite a challenging domestic environment and potential European import tariffs. Geely Auto plans to increase sales by 25% to 2.71 million units, with its Galaxy marque targeting one million units through new electric vehicle launches and expansion into twenty countries. Changan Auto aims for 3 million vehicle sales, representing a 12% year-on-year growth, supported by new models from its Avatr and Deepal series. Meanwhile, GAC targets a 15% annual sales growth, planning to introduce twenty-two new energy vehicles over the next three years. These strategies come as industry experts predict intensified competition and price wars in China's auto market, where new energy vehicle sales are projected to reach 16.5 million units in 2025. The moves highlight a strategic pivot towards overseas markets and diversified powertrain technologies to counter sluggish domestic demand and sustain growth amidst fierce rivalry from both traditional giants and emerging EV startups.
