Chinese brands turn up the turbo boost
An astonishing 13% of new car sales were bagged by Chinese brands in October. A year ago it was just 5%, such has been the sales surge. And there’s more coming with GAC-brand Aion gearing up for sales in early 2026. Of course, at the other end of the spectrum has been the shaky RVs of electric cars which is impacting the current leasing deals coming to market. But in October are we beginning to see the EV RV fightback start as 1 in 25 go electric?
