On the fundamental side, the used car market is highly sensitive to the overall economic environment. Recent delays in used car auctions and delivery times, along with signs of economic slowdown, have made the industry's transaction conditions less optimistic. Especially against the backdrop of easing new car supply chain issues, the focus of the used car market is gradually shifting towards inventory control and capital management efficiency. As an industry leader, the company benefits from the post-pandemic market rebound but must also face the challenges of inventory and supply chain structural adjustments.
