Battery Data Battery News BYD CALB CATL China Electric eMobility eV Gotion High-Tech Monthly Data SNE Research Tesla

Global EV battery market share in Jan-May: CATL 36.3%, BYD 16.1%

's battery installed base grew 59.6 percent year-on-year in January-May, while 's grew 107.8 percent year-on-year, according to SNE Research.

China's CATL and BYD (OTCMKTS: BYDDY) continued to dominate the global power battery market in the January-May period, the latest figures show.

From January to May, total global battery consumption for electric vehicles (EVs) was 237.6 GWh, up 52.3 percent from 156.0 GWh in the same period last year, according to data released today by South Korean market research firm SNE Research.

CATL installed 86.2 GWh of batteries in January-May, up 59.6 percent from 54.0 GWh in the same period last year.

The Chinese power battery giant continues to rank first in the world with a 36.3 percent share and remains the only battery supplier in the world with a market share of more than 30 percent.

This is up from its 34.6 percent share in the same period last year and up from its 35.9 percent share in the January-April period.

CATL's batteries are installed in many major passenger EV models in China's domestic market, such as the Model 3, Model Y, SAIC Mulan, Y, and ET5, as well as Chinese commercial vehicle models, and continue to grow steadily, SNE Research said.

BYD installed 38.1 GWh of power batteries from January to May, up 107.8 percent from 18.4 GWh in the same period last year.

The company ranked second with a 16.1 percent share from January to May, up from 11.8 percent in the same period last year and unchanged compared to January-April.

BYD has gained popularity in China's domestic market with its competitive pricing by establishing a vertically integrated supply chain management, including battery self-sufficiency and vehicle manufacturing, SNE Research said.

With the launch of the Atto 3 model, BYD showed explosive growth by expanding its market share outside of China in Asia and Europe, SNE Research said.

LG Energy Solution installed 33.0 GWh of power batteries from January to May, up 56.0 percent year-on-year.

The South Korean company ranked third in the world with a 13.9 percent share, slightly up from 13.6 percent a year ago and down from 14.1 percent in the January-April period.

Panasonic of Japan ranked fourth with an 8.0 percent share, SK On of South Korea ranked fifth with 5.2 percent share and CALB of China ranked sixth with a 4.3 percent share.

Samsung SDI of South Korea, China's Gotion High-tech, Eve Energy, and Sunwoda ranked seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth respectively, with 4.2 percent, 2.2 percent, 2.2 percent, and 1.6 percent shares in January-May.

It is worth noting that CALB's power battery installed base of 10.2 GWh continued to be higher than Samsung SDI's 9.9 GWh in January-May.

From January to March, CALB's 5.7 GWh was lower than Samsung SDI's 6.5 GWh. From January to April, CALB's 8.4 GWh exceeded Samsung SDI's 7.5 GWh.

In 2023, Chinese companies are expected to push into overseas markets such as Europe, preparing for a gradual decline in growth in China's domestic market, SNE Research said.

Europe is the largest EV market after China and is aggressively implementing environmental policies, so it is highly likely to be the biggest battleground in the future, according to SNE Research.

In the future, the proportion of LFP batteries in Europe is expected to increase as Chinese companies enter the European market in earnest, the report said.

The first SUV model of 's premium new energy vehicle (NEV) brand Denza seems to have gained good initial acceptance.

The Denza N7 SUV received 11,687 firm orders 24 hours after its official launch, Denza announced on Weibo late yesterday night.

Denza is a joint venture between BYD and Mercedes-Benz, each holding a 50 percent stake at the time of its inception. BYD increased its stake in Denza to 90 percent last year.

The brand officially launched the Denza N7, its second model since rebranding, at a launch event in Beijing on July 3, with a starting price of RMB 301,800 ($44,220) aimed at the market where the Tesla Model Y is located.

Prior to the launch of the N7, Denza was offering only the D9, an MPV that went on sale in August 2022 and was officially delivered in October last year.

The Denza N7 is a 5-seat mid-size SUV with a length, width and height of 4,860 mm, 1,935 mm and 1,602 mm, respectively, and a wheelbase of 2,940 mm.

For comparison, the Tesla Model Y is slightly smaller, measuring 4,750 mm in length, 1,921 mm in width and 1,624 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,890 mm.

The Model Y is currently offered in three versions in China with starting prices of RMB 263,900, RMB 313,900 and RMB 363,900 respectively. The Tesla model was the best-selling SUV in China from January to May.

The Denza website currently shows four versions of the N7 with starting prices of RMB 319,800, RMB 339,800, RMB 349,800 and RMB 379,800 respectively.

All four versions are equipped with DiSus-A, an intelligent air body control system, which was unveiled by BYD on April 10 and is similar to the air suspension currently used in many high-end vehicles.

Customers who do not need the system reduce the price of the vehicle by RMB 18,000, resulting in these two Air versions priced at RMB 301,800 and RMB 321,800.

On the first day of the Shanghai auto show on April 18, Denza started pre-sales for the N7, although pricing information had not been released at that time.

In early June, Zhao Changjiang, general manager of Denza's sales division, said the Denza N7 had over 20,000 pre-orders before specifications and pricing were announced, and that 55 percent of these order holders were owners of luxury brands including Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi, and 35 percent were existing owners of BYD and Denza.

The Denza N7 opened for test drives on July 4 and deliveries are set to begin in mid-July.

In June, Denza delivered 11,058 vehicles, the fourth consecutive month to exceed the 10,000-unit mark, according to BYD data released on July 2.

Li Auto did not explain on what basis the weekly sales were measured, but apparently they were insurance registrations. The company had suspended sharing those numbers in May, but has since resumed sharing them.

In June, Li Auto exceeded 30,000 monthly deliveries for the first time, making it the fifth luxury brand to exceed 30,000 monthly deliveries after Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and , and the only Chinese luxury brand among them, it said.

BYD China Denza Denza N7 Electric eMobility eV Product Launch Tesla

Denza launches N7 SUV to take on Tesla Model Y as brand gains momentum

Denza has delivered more than 10,000 vehicles for four consecutive months, and with the N7 SUV targeting a larger market, it is expected to gain further momentum.

's (OTCMKTS: BYDDY) joint venture with Mercedes-Benz, Denza, which was unknown in China until a few years ago, gained momentum as BYD took a controlling stake in the company last year. Now, Denza is looking to build further on it.

Denza officially launched the Denza N7 at an event in Beijing on Monday, and the electric SUV targets the market where the Model Y sits with a starting price of RMB 301,800 ($41,680).

The Denza N7 is a 5-seat mid-size SUV with a length, width and height of 4,860 mm, 1,935 mm and 1,602 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2,940 mm.

For comparison, the Tesla Model Y is slightly smaller, measuring 4,750 mm in length, 1,921 mm in width and 1,624 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,890 mm.

The Model Y is currently offered in three versions in China with starting prices of RMB 263,900, RMB 313,900 and RMB 363,900 respectively. This Tesla model was the best-selling SUV in China from January to May.

Denza was established in 2010 as a joint venture between BYD and Daimler, with each holding a 50 percent stake at the time. In February 2022, the Daimler brand was rebranded as Mercedes-Benz. BYD increased its stake in Denza to 90 percent last year.

In August 2022, Denza launched the D9 MPV, the brand's first model after the reorganization. The Denza N7 is the second model after Denza's shareholding change and its first SUV.

Before the D9 was launched, Denza had little presence in China. With the D9 providing a new option for the MPV market, Denza has become one of the top new car-making brands in China in terms of deliveries.

In June, the Denza delivered 11,058 vehicles, marking the fourth consecutive month above the 10,000-unit mark, according to data released by BYD yesterday.

It is worth noting that these sales were contributed by the D9, while MPVs traditionally have a small total addressable market in China, only about 10 percent of the market for sedan or SUV models.

In May, retail sales of sedans in China were 851,469 units, SUVs were 795,611 units, and MPVs were only 94,983 units, according to the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).

With the launch of the N7, Denza enters a market with significantly more space and is expected to see a further increase in sales.

The Denza N7 has received more than 20,000 pre-orders since it began accepting customer reservations on April 18, said Zhao Changjiang, general manager of Denza's sales division, at the launch event.

The Denza website currently shows four versions of the N7, with starting prices of RMB 319,800, RMB 339,800, RMB 349,800 and RMB 379,800 respectively.

All four versions are equipped with DiSus-A, an intelligent air body control system, which was announced by BYD on April 10 and is similar to the air suspension currently used in many high-end vehicles.

Customers who do not need the system can see the prices be reduced by RMB 18,000, resulting in two Air versions priced at RMB 301,800 and RMB 321,800, respectively.

The Denza N7 comes standard with BYD's signature blade battery based on lithium iron phosphate chemistry, all with a capacity of 91.3 kWh.

The two least expensive of these are the rear-wheel drive models with 230 kW of peak motor power and 360 Nm of peak torque, which can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.8 seconds. They both have a CLTC range of 702 km.

The other four higher-priced versions are four-wheel-drive models with 390 kW peak battery power and 670 Nm peak torque that can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. They have a CLTC range of 630 km.

Like the D9, the Denza N7 supports simultaneous charging with two charging guns, up to 150 kW when using one and 230 kW when using two.

In contrast to BYD's approach, Denza began the presentation by highlighting the N7's assisted driving capabilities, saying that the model is equipped with BYD's "Eyes of the God" driver-assisted driving system for the first time.

The Denza N7's assisted driving system includes two options, a standard version and an advanced version, the latter of which will use Nvidia's Orin-X chip with 254 TOPS of computing power.

The Denza N7 with the advanced version of the assisted driving solution will receive highway pilot assisted driving capability by the end of this year, while that capability in urban areas will become available in the first quarter of next year.

Denza did not mention information about the chip supplier for the standard version of the system, which is likely to be a lower-cost solution from a local manufacturer.

Denza N7 will be available for test drives on July 4, with deliveries starting in mid-July, Zhao said at the model's launch event.

China Deliveries Electric eMobility eV EV Data Quarterly Data Tesla

Tesla delivers record 466,140 vehicles globally in Q2

Model 3 and Model Y delivered 446,915 units worldwide in the second quarter, beating market expectations of 437,400 and contributing 96 percent of deliveries.

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) saw another record quarter of deliveries.

The US electric vehicle (EV) giant delivered 466,140 vehicles worldwide in the second quarter, up 83.02 percent year-on-year and up 10.23 percent from 422,875 in the first quarter, according to its overnight announcement.

It was also a new record for Tesla's EV deliveries and higher than the 448,400 units Wall Street analysts had expected.

Tesla's cheaper Model 3 and Model Y delivered 446,915 units worldwide in the second quarter, above market expectations of 437,400 units, contributing 96 percent of deliveries. A total of 19,255 Model S and Model X units were delivered, above expectations of 14,600 units.

Tesla produced 479,700 vehicles in the second quarter, including 460,211 Model 3 and Model Y, and 19,489 Model S with Model X.

Tesla's production and delivery gap was 13,560 units in the second quarter, down from 18,000 units in the previous quarter.

Tesla cut prices globally earlier this year, and its starting price for the Model 3 sedan came to an all-time low after it cut prices in China on January 6.

In early May, the company raised the prices of all Model 3s and Model Ys in China, all by 2,000 yuan ($275), an increase of less than 1 percent. The move was thought to be more aimed at dampening consumers' wait-and-see sentiment at the time.

In China, Tesla has a factory in Shanghai that produces the Model 3 and Model Y. It's the largest Tesla factory in the world, with an annual capacity of about 1.1 million units a year.

Tesla does not officially announce its deliveries in China, though the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) publishes those numbers every month.

Tesla's retail sales in China in April and May were 39,956 and 42,508, respectively, and its Shanghai plant exported 35,886 and 35,187 units in the two months, according to the CPCA.

The company's June sales figures in China are expected to be available in a few days.

(OTCMKTS: BYDDY), one of Tesla's main competitors in China, delivered 703,561 new energy vehicles (NEVs) in the second quarter, including 700,244 passenger cars and 3,317 commercial vehicles, according to data released yesterday.
