  • Despite Booming Sales, Suvs Are Losing Appeal in China, J.D. Power Finds
    Despite Booming Sales, SUVs Are Losing Appeal in China, J.D. Power Finds Porsche and FAW-Mazda Rank Highest in Their Respective Segments; SAIC Volkswagen and FAW-Volkswagen Each Receive Two Model-Level Awards SHANGHAI: 1 Nov. 2017 — Although the market share of SUVs continues to rise in China, their APEAL index is actually going down, and SUVs in China are gradually losing the edge against non- SUVs in soft quality, according to the J.D. Power 2017 China Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study,SM released today. While the growth rate of passenger-vehicle sales in China is slowing down, the SUV boom continues. Its market share is expected to soar up to 43% by the end of this year, compared with 16% in 2011. 1 However, SUVs are becoming less appealing to consumers in China, compared with non-SUVs. In 2011, the APEAL index score for SUVs was 38 points higher (on a 1,000-point scale) than for non-SUVs, compared with only 1 point higher in 2017. The study also finds that the small SUV segment performs lowest among the seven SUV segments across all 10 measurement categories of the study. Its only improvement was in fuel economy, up 9 points from last year. “In a market flooded with numerous SUVs, manufacturers have not come up with enough differentiated products,” said Dr. Mei Songlin, Vice President and Managing Director at J.D. Power China. “Despite their affection for SUVs, consumers in China expect more and better experiences from the new vehicles they buy, especially regarding new technologies and intelligent functions.
