In addition to the increase in sales of EVs = electric vehicles, sales of new cars in China in November increased significantly by more than 11% compared to the same month last year, partly due to the reaction to the decline in sales due to the re-spread of the new corona infection.
According to the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, which is made up of Chinese automakers, sales of new cars in November were 11.297 million units, a significant increase of 27.4% compared to the same month last year.

% higher than the same month last year, 11.56% increase for Honda,
and
