Dongfeng Motor Group Co ( (HK:0489) ) has provided an announcement.

Dongfeng Motor Group reported total sales of 228,518 vehicles for the first two months of 2026, a year-on-year increase of 1.2%, while its parent Dongfeng Motor Corporation sold 295,939 vehicles, up 6.3%. New energy vehicle sales were the standout segment, surging 51.8% to 67,163 units, even as overall passenger vehicle volumes declined slightly and commercial vehicle sales rose more than 20%, highlighting a mix of structural pressure in traditional segments and strong momentum in electrified and commercial offerings.

Within the group, subsidiary Dongfeng Automobile Co. (DFAC) saw sales edge down 0.9% to 18,275 units over the same period, suggesting uneven performance across the portfolio. The contrasting trends, with robust growth in new energy and commercial vehicles but softer passenger car demand, underscore Dongfeng’s reliance on its electrification strategy and truck segment to drive growth in an increasingly competitive Chinese auto market.
