  • One-Fourth of New-Vehicle Owners in China Choose Domestic Brands for Good Quality Or Performance, J.D
    One-Fourth of New-Vehicle Owners in China Choose Domestic Brands for Good Quality or Performance, J.D. Power Finds Porsche and GAC Honda Rank Highest among Luxury and Mass Market Brands, Respectively SHANGHAI: 15 Oct. 2020 – Increasing vehicle quality has become one of the driving factors for consumers in China to choose domestic brands, as one in four new-vehicle owners purchase a domestic rather than an international brand due to good quality or performance, according to the J.D. Power 2020 China Initial Quality Study SM (IQS), released today. The study, now in its 21st year, measures initial vehicle quality by examining problems experienced by new- vehicle owners within the first two to six months of ownership. Overall initial quality is determined by problems reported per 100 vehicles (PP100), with a lower number of problems indicating higher quality. According to the 2020 study, the percentage of vehicle owners who agree or strongly agree that the Chinese domestic brands are innovative, reliable, environment-friendly and reputable has increased annually since 2015 by 12%, 9%, 7% and 10%. The percentage of vehicle owners who choose domestic brands because of good quality or performance has increased to 25% this year from 16% in 2015, while the percentage of those who choose domestic brands due to low price has dropped to 6% from 12% in 2015. The study also finds that there is a quality gap between Chinese domestic brands and all other brands in China. Among all automotive brands, Chinese domestic brands (135 PP100) are the only ones that perform below the industry average level (127 PP100).

  • Vehicles in China Are Losing Appeal Among Owners Born After 1990, J.D
    Vehicles in China are Losing Appeal among Owners Born after 1990, J.D. Power Finds Porsche, GAC FCA Jeep and WEY Rank Highest in Respective Segments SHANGHAI: 19 Aug. 2021 – Vehicles in China are gradually losing their attractiveness to young customers, as satisfaction is lowest among new-vehicle owners born after 1990, compared with other age groups, according to the J.D. Power 2021 China Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study,SM released today. Specifically, satisfaction among owners born before 1980 is 769 (on a 1,000-point scale), 755 among owners born in the 1980s and only 718 among owners born after 1990. The three categories with the biggest gap in satisfaction scores between post-90s customers and those in the other two groups are vehicle performance, driving comfort and driving feel. As for the specific attributes the study measures, owners born after 1990 are less satisfied with using the navigation system and the usefulness of infotainment system functions. The study, now in its 19th year, examines new-vehicle owners’ assessments of their experience with their new vehicle within the first two to six months of ownership. The data is used extensively by manufacturers to help them design and develop more appealing models. The overall APEAL score for the industry in 2021 is 733, which is one point higher than in 2020. “Customers born after 1990 now account for more than half of owners of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles; however, they are the least satisfied and the least excited with their vehicles,” said Jeff Cai, general manager of auto product practice at J.D.
