> **30 Million Chinese Cars' Profits Are Not as Good as Toyota's, This is the Reality of China's Automotive Industry**
> 
> The profit margin of China's automotive industry has hit a historical low, with a profit margin of only 3.2% in the first quarter, below the national average for industrial enterprises. Sales, revenue, and profits have all declined, and car companies are facing serious internal injuries and consumer aesthetic fatigue. The logic of industry competition has shifted from significant price reductions to who can survive longer. Nearly 20 brands have raised prices and tightened discounts, with some new forces achieving profitability. The large number of domestic automotive brands, intense market competition, the pain of transitioning from fuel to electric, and insufficient high-end premium capabilities are the main reasons for low profits.

> **The New Energy Vehicle Maintenance Market Rapidly Expands, with Output Value Growing Nearly 9 Times in 6 Years**

> From 2020 to 2025, the output value of new energy vehicle maintenance in China is expected to grow from 9.1 billion yuan to 90.4 billion yuan, nearly a 9-fold increase, accounting for 8% of the market. Reports indicate that the automotive aftermarket has entered a phase of stable growth, with competition shifting towards structural adaptation. The demand in the new energy vehicle aftermarket is rapidly expanding, with differentiated vehicle age structures, and the maintenance model primarily consisting of "specialized repair shops + authorized systems." The fuel vehicle aftermarket mainly focuses on fault repairs, parts replacements, and maintenance. Consumers are concerned about price transparency and service efficiency, with high cost-performance ratio becoming the direction of competition. The automotive aftermarket is evolving from a single service industry to an ecological industry that integrates community, culture, and consumer experience.
