The semi-trailer tractor market performance in the first half of this year was also very "not positive."

Semi-trailer tractors were once hailed as the best-selling models in China's market segments after entering the WTO. In 2007, as the demand for transportation such as highways and ports increased, semi-trailer tractors ushered in the first market climax - The increase in the year exceeded 90%. However, after the economic crisis in 2008 and the cold weather of the truck market this year, what will happen to the semitrailer tractor market?

Since the implementation of the "Regulations on the Protection of Highway Safety" and the special clean-up work of expressway toll stations, it has been difficult to receive significant results for a time; the "eight-nation" rules for logistics have not yet been introduced; oil prices are unlikely to decline in the short-term, and the impact of fuel consumption access policies Still waiting for the situation, this year's semi-trailer sales have been bad.

Relevant data show that the performance of the semi-trailer tractor market for this year's work is also very "not active". Compared with the "2010 semi-trailer tractor production and sales of 362,500 units and 354,600 units, an increase of 74.11% and 67.98%," The production and sales volume in the first seven months of this year can be described as dismal. From January to July, the production and sales of semi-trailer tractors were 143,700 units and 153,800 units, a year-on-year decrease of 36.54% and 32.80%. It is no longer a pain to sink into the trough. According to this trend, even if the environment of policies, markets, etc. stabilizes in the fourth quarter, the semi-trailer's performance in the annual sales report is likely to become the largest year-on-year decline.

Faced with the market downturn, Dong Yang, executive vice president and secretary-general of the China Automobile Association, believes that the slowdown in the national economy is the main reason for the decline in the sales of tractor-trailers. Therefore, he hopes that the government will pay attention to this situation and hopes to promote the development of the commercial vehicle market by reducing transportation costs.

According to statistics from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, from January to June 2011, China's tractors sold a total of 113,400 units. Among the tractor companies that were counted by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, there were six cumulative sales of more than 5,000 vehicles, namely Qingdao Automobile, China FAW, Dongfeng Automobile, Beiqi Foton, Shaanxi Auto, and China National Heavy Duty Truck; sales were 23,200 units respectively. There were 23,100 units, 17,900 units, 13,700 units, 11,300 units, and 0.56 million units. The accumulated sales of these six companies reached 106,600 units, accounting for 93.97% of the total sales of tractors.
