● Edit comments
According to previous data, in May 2019, the number of domestic pickup terminals was 30,400, up 1.76% year-on-year. From January to May, the number of insured terminals was 174,000, a year-on-year increase of 10.14%. In the context of the overall decline of the automobile market, pickup trucks with a double-digit growth trend are regarded as one of the potential market segments. As one of the earliest manufacturers of pickup trucks in China, Great Wall Motor naturally has to dig deep into this market segment. The brand-new pickup truck that Great Wall Motor put into production this time is such an example. With the improvement of people’s living standards, there is also more demand for pickup trucks. Therefore, on the basis of better appearance and more comfortable interior, the car has also derived three types of commercial pickup trucks, passenger pickup trucks and off-road pickup trucks to meet the needs of various consumers, which is quite worthy of recognition. We also expect this epoch-making China brand pickup truck to enter the market as soon as possible. (Author: Luo Aoyu)
