New vehicle sales in China surged by almost 30% in July with sales of more than 2.4 million vehicles.

The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) said customer demand was boosted by government incentives to support the industry, and a recovery in production, amid easing of covid restrictions. 

Sales of new-energy vehicles reached 564,000 units in July, giving a total of almost 3 million for the year so far and there are projections of a total of 6 million units for the full year, which would represent more than double the figure for 2021.
