FAW-Volkswagen's retail sales of NEVs in January-February were 9,572 units, down 8.3 percent from 10,442 units in the same period last year.

The price war in China's auto industry continues, with Volkswagen becoming the latest to join in.

FAW-Volkswagen is offering discounts of up to RMB 40,000 yuan ($5,820) on the ID. family of models, with the lineup starting at as low as RMB 174,900 yuan, according to a poster posted on Weibo on March 11 by the Volkswagen joint venture in China.

This is to celebrate the second anniversary of the launch of the ID. family of models, according to the poster.

In addition to the discount, FAW-Volkswagen is offering consumers a free camping kit worth RMB 4,900.

FAW-Volkswagen's poster shows that these offers are for a limited time, but no expiration date is provided.

Currently, FAW-Volkswagen is selling the ID. series of ID.4 Crozz and ID.6 Crozz, two SUVs with suggested retail prices starting at RMB 217,900 and RMB 258,900 respectively.

In addition to FAW-Volkswagen, SAIC-Volkswagen, another Volkswagen joint venture in China, is also offering discounts for the ID. series EVs.

SAIC Volkswagen ID. series pure electric vehicles are offering discounts of up to RMB 30,000, and consumers can also receive up to RMB 10,000 worth of other benefits at dealership stores, according to a poster.

Like FAW-Volkswagen, SAIC-Volkswagen also offers the ID.4 series models, ID.4 X and ID.6 X, with suggested retail prices starting at RMB 195,888 and RMB 259,888, respectively.

In addition to the two ID. series models, SAIC Volkswagen also offers the compact ID.3 model with a suggested retail price starting at RMB 162,888.

Volkswagen had announced monthly sales of the ID. series EVs in late 2021 to early 2022, but then stopped publishing them.

FAW-Volkswagen's retail sales of NEVs in January-February were 9,572 units, down 8.3 percent from 10,442 units in the same period last year, according to a ranking released earlier this month by the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA). SAIC Volkswagen did not make it into the ranking of top sellers of NEVs in China.

FAW-Volkswagen's January-February retail sales of all vehicles were down 24.9 percent to 221,946 units, according to the CPCA. SAIC-Volkswagen's retail sales of all vehicles for the same period were down 29 percent to 154,631 units.
