The Tesla Model Y was the best-selling new energy SUV and the Model 3 was the best-selling new energy sedan in China last week.
Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI) yesterday shared the insurance registrations of some of the car companies last week to showcase its leadership among the new car-making brands.
Local auto media outlet Dongchedi then shared the rankings they produced, providing more details.
It should be noted that the two shared slightly different data on a few of the car companies' numbers, although the differences were minor, which may have to do with their rounding practices.
