Based on authoritative data from the China Bus Information Network, the domestic export market for new energy buses with a length of 3.5 meters or longer experienced slight fluctuations in July 2026; however, the overall upward trend of industry expansion into overseas markets remained unchanged, and competition among leading players continued to intensify. As market access requirements in overseas markets continue to tighten, a compliant, intelligent, and highly reliable onboard support system has become a core competitive advantage for automakers seeking to secure overseas orders.
I. July Monthly Performance: BYD tops the rankings; Yutong and Ouhui firmly hold positions among the top three.
In July, the total export volume of new energy buses reached 1,821 units. Among these, BYD stood out with monthly exports of 600 units, achieving both year-on-year and month-on-month growth; it topped the rankings with a market share of 32.95%, making it the only manufacturer in the industry to exceed 600 units in monthly exports. Yutong and Foton Ouhui ranked second and third, respectively, both registering double-digit year-on-year growth; Ouhui has maintained its position among the top three manufacturers in the industry for two consecutive months. Additionally, automakers including Chery Wanda, Jinli, and Zhongtong reported significant year-on-year growth, reflecting strong industry momentum. BYD was also the only manufacturer that achieved both year-on-year and month-on-month growth during the month, demonstrating exceptional market resilience that leads the industry.
II. Cumulative data for the first seven months: The industry hierarchy has become more consolidated; quality competition has emerged as the prevailing trend.
From January to July 2026, cumulative exports of new energy buses totaled 11,902 units, representing a year-on-year increase of 25.35%, indicating continued expansion of the overseas market. The industry has now formed four distinct competitive tiers: BYD and Yutong constitute the first tier, with both companies achieving cumulative export volumes exceeding 2,000 units; Jinlv, Ankai, and Haige firmly occupy the second tier (with export volumes above 1,000 units); King Long, Ouhui, and Chery Wanda make up the third tier; and Kaiwo and Zhongtong belong to the fourth tier. The gap between these tiers is significant, and competition within each tier is intense; however, Foton Ouhui has recently defied the prevailing trend to overtake its competitors, demonstrating the core competitive strategy in the overseas market – which revolves around excelling in product quality, supply chain capabilities, and customer service.
III. Providing comprehensive support to leading automotive manufacturers, facilitating the high-quality global expansion of domestic bus manufacturers.
China's passenger vehicle export strategy has evolved from large-scale market expansion to a focus on compliant, intelligent, and high-quality product offerings. As overseas markets impose increasingly stringent requirements regarding active vehicle safety systems, comprehensive vehicle monitoring solutions, and digital fleet management, high-quality onboard components have become a critical factor for automakers seeking to successfully enter international markets. Henan Huhang Automotive Technology Group (www.hu-hang.com), a specialized supplier in the field of active vehicle safety systems, provides ADAS vehicle products—including FCW, LDW, and AEBS systems—that comply with EU and other international regulatory standards. The company maintains long-term, in-depth partnerships with numerous leading automakers expanding overseas, offering one-stop compliant active vehicle safety solutions for its entire range of export models.
To address the challenging road conditions overseas and diverse international compliance requirements, Henan Huhang Group has developed a comprehensive suite of customized overseas expansion products: industrial-grade vehicle terminals designed to withstand extreme temperatures, long-distance cross-border journeys, and other demanding operating environments; mature active safety warning systems, blind-spot monitoring systems, automatic emergency braking systems, and collision avoidance systems tailored to local traffic regulations – all of which collectively enhance the safety performance of export passenger vehicles.
Additionally, the Henan Huchang Group's Multilingual Smart Management Platform enables vehicle trajectory playback, data retention, and automated electronic ledger archiving, addressing key pain points such as challenging fleet supervision, the absence of a closed-loop management system, and inadequate operational and maintenance capabilities. Unlike traditional approaches focused solely on hardware supply, Huchang provides end-to-end services—including factory calibration, comprehensive vehicle integration, and remote operational maintenance—thereby effectively reducing automotive manufacturers' after-sales costs and ensuring compliant vehicle operation.
In the second half of the industry competition era, a robust supporting supply chain serves as the core foundation enabling automotive manufacturers to maintain their leading position. Moving forward, Henan Huhang will continue to iterate and launch customized overseas products and service systems, consistently empowering major partner automakers, helping domestic vehicles deepen their presence in global markets, and enhancing China's reputation as a global hub for intelligent manufacturing.
