Chinese cars surge in the French used-car market
Published
Cars made in China are seeing a spectacular rise in France. According to information published by BFM, their sales have jumped by 69% over one year. These vehicles are performing particularly well on the used-car market, while their results remain weaker in the new-car segment.
This success is due in part to attractive prices. On the used-car market, buyers can find Chinese models at a lower price than that of new cars. For many French households, which are careful with their budgets, this option is therefore becoming more appealing.
The French car market remains, however, highly competitive. Chinese manufacturers still need to convince some consumers, who sometimes distrust brands that are less well known in Europe. The coming months will show whether this trend is confirmed in both the new and used segments.
In short, Chinese cars occupy an increasingly important place in the French market, particularly among used-car buyers.
