China's vehicle sales surged by 34.4% year-on-year to 2.129 million units in February 2025, rebounding sharply from a 0.6% decline in the previous month, which was the first drop in four months, according to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM).

New energy vehicles (NEVs) soared by 87.1% in February to 892 thousand units, accounting for 41.9% of total new vehicle sales last month. On a monthly basis, total car sales fell by 12.2% in February. For 2025, car sales are expected to grow by 4.7% to reach 32.9 million units, with NEVs predicted to grow by 24.4% to 16 million units. Last year, total vehicle sales rose by 4.5% to 31.436 million units, easing sharply from a 12% surge in 2023.
