description: "In the first half of 2025, China's plug-in/extended-range hybrid vehicle market did not maintain the same high growth rate as pure electric vehicles. Let's take a look at the top 20 best-selling plug-in hybrid models in the first half of the year to see who is supporting the ceiling of this market.If we divide the list into plug-in and extended-range categories, we can see that the plug-in list is dominated by BYD, while the extended-range list is dominated by Li Auto and Aito. Let's look at them together.In first place is the BYD Qin L DM-i, which became a hit as soon as it was launched, with sales of 110,000 units, making it the king of compact plug-in hybrids. In second place is the BYD Qin PLUS DM-i, a long-standing favorite in the family, with sales of 104,000 units in the first half of the year, proving its enduring popularity. In third place is the Song Pro DM-i, with sales of exactly 100,000 units, also the best-selling SUV. In fourth place is the newly launched Li Auto L6, with sales of 96,000 units in just a few months, showing impressive momentum. In fifth place is BYD's new mid-size sedan, the Seal 06 DM-i, with sales of 93,000 units. Clearly, it and the Qin L form BYD's new "dual-A sedan" strategy.Looking further down, BYD remains dominant. Models like the Song DM-i, Song PLUS, Han DM-i, and Destroyer 05 all made the list, with BYD occupying 7 of the top 20 spots, solidifying its position as the market leader. Li Auto, on the other hand, has flourished in the market for vehicles priced above 200,000 yuan, with the L7, L8, L9, and new L6 all making the list, consolidating its dominance in the mid-to-large extended-range SUV market. Aito's M9 and M8, two luxury extended-range SUVs, also broke into the top 10, with the M9 selling 56,000 units in the first half of the year, making it a dark horse in the high-end extended-range segment, while the M8's sales have yet to fully materialize.Two other models are worth special mention: the Galaxy Starship 7 EM-i, with sales of 71,000 units, has emerged as a rising star among domestic plug-in hybrid SUVs, while the Voyah Dreamer PHEV stands out in the plug-in hybrid MPV segment with sales of 32,000 units in the first half of the year.Overall, the list shows BYD maintaining strong pressure, Li Auto firmly entrenched in the high-end market, and Huawei's ecosystem making inroads into the luxury segment, with domestic brands dominating the plug-in hybrid market. In the second half of the year, with the continuous addition of new plug-in/extended-range hybrid models, this segment is only going to become more competitive—we'll wait and see."
