2021 Best Selling SUV Cars In China (All Models Ranked)

In 2021, the SUV segment in China maintained its momentum and was among the most active and competitive segments in the automotive market. SUVs remained a favored vehicle type for Chinese consumers, offering a blend of style, practicality, and perceived safety. The New Energy Vehicle (NEV) trend was especially pronounced in the SUV sector. Several electric SUVs were launched, catering to different market segments from luxury to mass-market.

Smaller, more urban-friendly SUVs became even more popular, striking a balance between the appeal of an SUV and the practicality needed for city driving. Like the broader auto industry, the SUV segment was impacted by the global semiconductor chip shortage, leading to production constraints and longer delivery times for some models.
