Two consecutive years of decline in the special vehicle market this year to restore growth


After two years of declining in 2011 and 2012, China’s special-purpose vehicle market witnessed a recovery growth in sales and sales volume in 2013. In particular, the series of tank cars and dump trucks showed rapid growth.

Relevant data show that from January to October 2013, the sales volume of special-purpose vehicles nationwide was 1.278 million, accounting for 38.4% of the total sales of commercial vehicles. Industry insiders expect that sales of special vehicles will reach 1,426,000 units in 2013, an increase of 25.4% year-on-year; the market for special vehicles will continue to maintain growth in 2014, with annual sales expected to be around 1.55 million units, and sanitation vehicles will increase by 28%. , The operating vehicle grew by 20%.

Regarding the development trend of the future special-purpose vehicle market, Wang Tao, chairman and general manager of Hubei Futian Special Purpose Vehicle Co., Ltd., recently announced at the launch of the Foton-Rosa Special Vehicles held in Jiuhua Villa in Beijing that the future market capacity of special-purpose vehicles will continue to increase. The proportion of commercial vehicles has continued to increase. He expects that the sales of specialty vehicles will account for more than 60% of the sales of commercial vehicles by 2020 (70% in Europe and the United States in 2012). The design of special vehicles will increasingly focus on automation, humanization, lightweight and fashion.

Wang Tao said that with the rapid development of urbanization in China, infrastructure construction has been increasingly perfected throughout the country, but the follow-up maintenance facilities have not been able to keep up. For example, sanitation, highways, and other systems supporting facilities have much room for improvement.

Take the expressway as an example, the state stipulates that every 100 kilometers of expressways must be equipped with a complete set of security systems, including highway maintenance vehicles, wreckers, crossed-line vehicles, and maintenance vehicles. At present, there are insufficient supporting facilities for China's expressway system. 30%. For another example, in the sanitation vehicle market, the market has been growing rapidly for many years. The cumulative sales from January to July 2013 have exceeded the full year last year. The market capacity in 2013 is expected to reach 55,000 units. With the Chinese government’s emphasis on environmental protection, sanitation vehicles The market will continue to maintain rapid growth in the next 3-5 years, and it is expected that the market capacity will reach 100,000 units by 2020.

The reporter learned that at present, China's special-purpose vehicle market is in its infancy. There are more than 980 enterprises in the country that produce special-purpose vehicles. The market concentration of products is not high, and the industry is still in a state of disorderly competition. Moreover, the quality and technical standards of each company are not uniform; the entire special-purpose vehicle industry is still in the stage of technology introduction and digestion, and the market lacks a nation-wide special-purpose vehicle brand.

In the future, with the rapid development of China's urban economy, the market size of high-performance, high-quality special-purpose vehicle products will further expand, the prices of special-purpose vehicles will become increasingly transparent, and price competition will become increasingly fierce. This will surely promote enterprises to continuously innovate products to maintain high prices. With added value, the market will eventually be concentrated in the hands of several large oligopolistic companies.
