Geely’s Ascendancy in the Automotive Market
Leading Automobile Manufacturers
In November, BYD solidified its position at the top of the auto industry chart with an impressive achievement of approximately 485,000 vehicle registrations, marking a significant new milestone for the company. This extraordinary performance raises questions about future sales potential—could they reach 800,000 units per month?
A closer look at these figures reveals that only about 31,000 vehicles were sold internationally. This statistic can be interpreted in multiple ways: it shows BYD’s strong reliance on its domestic market, which accounts for over 90% of its output; however, it also illustrates considerable growth potential awaiting exploration in global markets like Brazil and Mexico.
Tesla’s Fluctuating Performance
Tesla continues to experience erratic sales trends, fluctuating between strong growths and downturns. In November, the electric vehicle giant observed a slight decline of 1% year-over-year following a rise of 6% in October. Analyzing data from January through November reveals five months of increases (January, May, July, September, and October) contrasted with six months where sales dipped (February through April as well as June through November).
Looking ahead to 2025 offers optimism; anticipated updates include a refreshed Model Y and possibly an affordable new model debuting later in the year—leaving many speculating about how substantial this anticipated growth might be for Tesla.
The Rise of Geely and Other Competitors
Beneath BYD and Tesla lie formidable contenders from China; Geely has secured third place with over 89,000 units sold—setting yet another record alongside Wuling’s impressive count of 81,000 registrations. Geely’s portfolio boasts models such as Galaxy E5 and Panda Mini that are gaining traction while additional releases are lined up for future launch (e.g., Galaxy Starship 7), positioning them strongly for continued success into 2025.
The Continuing Success of Li Auto
Ongoing growth is noticeable at Li Auto despite not achieving record-breaking numbers—it reported an encouraging increase of around 20% compared to last year.
A Surge Among Emerging Brands
A series of Chinese manufacturers are making waves lower down the rankings—with notable milestones being established throughout various brands. Leapmotor celebrated its fourth consecutive record month with approximately 40,000 registrations in November while Xpeng reached similar heights with roughly 31,000 units driven predominantly by their successful models including Mona M03 and P7+ liftbacks.
- Deepal achieved notable recognition too with a remarkable total nearing just under 28K this past month owing largely to demand for their S7 crossover; Zeekr followed suit closely behind hitting around 27K thanks opposite performance attributed directly towards implementing strategies sustaining interest amidst consumers especially regarding their midsize crossover offerings like Zeekr 7X.
- Xiaomi even debuted within these ranks courtesy solid deliveries featuring records show casing newfound consumer engagement accumulating nearly 24K unit deliveries all thanks favorable impressiveness increasingly surrounding SU7 sedan now freely available market expanding brand presence beyond initial expectations.! Think where they may land after twelve more months pass…

The Evolving Medal Standings: A New Contender Emerges
In a significant turn of events, BMW has officially lost its grip on the bronze position in electric vehicle (EV) sales for 2023, paving the way for Wuling to take its place in 2024. The trend suggests that Geely will follow suit and snag bronze by 2025.
Meanwhile, Geely has made notable strides by surpassing Li Auto to claim fifth place overall. With BMW only managing to maintain a lead of 19,000 units over Geely, it raises questions about how long the German automobile giant can retain its current ranking. One thing is clear: Geely is rapidly emerging as a formidable competitor in the EV landscape.
Leapmotor’s Meteoric Rise
On a different note, Leapmotor continues to show remarkable progress as it climbs two spots to secure twelfth place. This trend hints at an intriguing possibility: Leapmotor may soon overshadow Stellantis’ total EV sales numbers!
A noteworthy mention goes to Chery, now positioned at #17; with Hyundai at #16 and Audi at #15 within striking distance, it wouldn’t be surprising if Chery ends up securing fifteenth spot by the end of 2024.
A Glimpse into OEM Rankings
The analysis of original equipment manufacturers (OEM) reveals that BYD maintains command over market share with an impressive increase from 24% last year to 24.4% this year—up from just 22.1% previously. In contrast, Tesla’s share fell significantly from last year’s figure of 13.3%, landing at just 10.4% this November.
A Closer Look at Market Trends
Geely-Volvo remains third among OEM players with an increase of 0.2%, achieving an overall market share of eight point two percent—up from six point eight percent only twelve months ago! This growth positions Geely not just as a strong contender but possibly as one that could rival Tesla’s existing second-place status by mid-2025.
This development could have implications even for BYD; industry experts suggest that if trends persist, Geely might present significant competition leading into late decade projections such as around twenty twenty-eight or twenty twenty-nine.
The Competitive Landscape Beneath the Top Tier
Beneath BYD and Tesla sits Volkswagen Group in fourth place with five point eight percent market share while backtracking slightly against SAIC’s growth—now holding five point five percent due mostly to solid performance from Wuling amid generally subdued sales across other brands within their lineup.
- Sitting comfortably above competitors like Changan (three point eight percent) who benefited from Deepal’s recent success;
- BMW Group trails close behind with three point five percent;
- Hyundai-Kia: Presently grappling through difficult times down another tenth percentage wise positioned down four-tenths percentage wise whilst Stellantis lags behind further still now reaching merely two-point nine after also falling back again within one year’s timeline losing roughly thirty-three percent off prior EV shares held…;
Analyzing Battery Electric Vehicles Alone
If we focus solely on battery electric vehicles (BEVs), we find Tesla clinging onto first place but seeing diminishments slipping down into sixteen point five—the manufacturer yielding roughly two-point seven percentages relative previous statures measured year-on-year; while fast-adapting BYD asserts itself firmly near close trailing right thereafter registering sixteen-point-two incrementally since October preceding remarks!

Market Dynamics in the Automotive Sector: A Focus on EV Sales
The current landscape of the automotive market is characterized by competitive growth among leading manufacturers, particularly in the electric vehicle (EV) segment. BYD continues to lead the pack, showcasing a remarkable performance that reinforces its position as a major player.
SAIC Motor Corporation has seen an increase in market share, climbing to 7.5% from 7.4% last month, bolstered largely by its successful Wuling brand. This growth puts SAIC ahead of Volkswagen Group, which holds a stable 6.7%. As we approach year-end assessments, it seems likely that this ranking will hold steady for Volkswagen.
Positioning of Other Key Competitors
In sixth place is BMW Group with a market share of 4%, experiencing a slight dip from October’s figure of 4.1%. Meanwhile, Hyundai-Kia sits at seventh with a market presence recorded at 3.9%, down by 0.1% compared to previous months.
