In August 2026, the residual value rate of automobiles broke away from the general downward trend, showing signs of differentiated recovery. The residual value rate of domestic cars climbed to 53.74%, surpassing Japanese cars for the first time and claiming the top spot. Meanwhile, the residual value rate of Japanese cars dipped to 52.39%. German and French cars maintained a relatively stable performance, while Korean, American, and British cars witnessed slight increases. In terms of vehicle models, SUVs led the growth in residual value rates, with sedans and MPVs also rebounding. Fuel-efficient pickups, however, experienced only limited growth. Among new energy pure electric vehicles, the Ideal MEGA, Galaxy Starwish, and Aito M9 stood out with exceptional performance, while the two Tesla models showed varying degrees of success. The rankings for plug-in hybrid vehicles underwent changes, with the Tengshi Z9GT taking the lead, while hardcore plug-in hybrid models collectively saw a decline. In the ride-hailing market, the Tesla Model 3 regained its top position, traditional mainstay models weakened, and two new models made their debut.
