SAIC Motor, the Shanghai-headquartered automotive giant, has reported robust year-to-date (YTD) vehicle sales, totaling 2.39 million units. This performance underscores the company's continued growth and innovation in the automotive sector.

In the first half of 2025, SAIC Motor sold 2.053 million units worldwide, a 12.4% increase from the same period last year [1]. The company's success can be attributed to its strategic focus on innovation and reform, as highlighted by its "new three-driving-force" strategy encompassing self-owned brands, new energy vehicles (NEV), and overseas operations.

The company's NEV roster also performed exceptionally well, with sales jumping by 40.2% to 646,000 units, and last month alone, NEV sales reached 121,000 units, a 29.2% increase compared to last year [1].

In the Philippines, SAIC Motor sold 4,632 units in the first half of 2025, a 17.9% rise from the previous year's sales volume [1]. The company's local campaign, "Made Global. Made Great," has been instrumental in bolstering its brand image and driving sales in the country.

Hyundai Motor America, a key competitor, also reported strong sales figures for July 2025. The company's total sales reached 79,543 units, a 15% increase compared to July 2024, and an all-time July record [2]. Hyundai's retail sales rose 18% to 73,064 units, with electrified vehicle sales jumping by 50% compared to last year [2].

These results highlight the competitive landscape in the automotive industry and the importance of innovation and strategic positioning for sustained growth.
