The rise of the young consumer market has intensified competition for luxury brand performance cars.

In the past two years, luxury brands have lowered their stature to grab the market has become the norm in the industry, but they have never lost that as the leader of the tone and charm, with the rise of the young consumer market, the luxury brand of high-performance cars have gradually been respected, and the development of a new battlefield for all parties to wrestle.

On October 21, at the 2020 China Automotive Supply Chain Conference, Hu Jianping, deputy director of the Market System Construction Department of the Ministry of Commerce, said that the system will be perfected to open up the whole chain of circulation of new cars, second-hand cars and end-of-life cars, to stimulate the vitality of the market and endogenous impetus, to fully implement the State Council's "Measures for the Recycling and Management of End-of-Life Motor Vehicles" issued on September 1 this year, and to fully implement the restriction on the movement of second-hand cars. The issue of the policy (actively promote the abolition of the national five used car relocation restrictions).

The circulation of used cars is stronger than blocking, but the actual implementation still needs to wait and see.

The circulation of used cars, as a part of the whole life cycle of automobiles, has the important function of revitalizing the stock of automobiles, stimulating the increment of new cars, driving the development of the market, and promoting the consumption of automobiles. The restriction of relocation policy undermines the fairness of the market, and is a great inconvenience to both car dealers and consumers.

But although there is a national level to take the lead in promoting, but according to the previous lifting of relocation restrictions in the implementation of the efficiency of the local point of view, the policy to push but do not move, the local picture of the situation prevails. Local governments are ostensibly environmental reasons to adhere to the policy of relocation restrictions, the actual is afraid of the influx of used cars affect new car sales, thus reducing local tax revenue. For the Ministry of Commerce voice can reverse the situation, we can only be cautious wait-and-see attitude.
