Follow-up reports pointed out that these figures are measured as year-on-year changes in "key platform sales" in the Ministry of Commerce's commerce big data; they are not equal to national all-channel growth rates, nor do they directly represent industry market size, shipments, or profit growth; sales growth may also be affected by factors such as product supply, prices, promotions, and consumer awareness. Separately, according to data from the China Automobile Dealers Association, the retail penetration rate of new energy passenger vehicles in September was 67.0%.
