Sales of Natural Gas Heavy Trucks Low This Year

Why is that? Will the market recover in the second half this year?

As a quick responser of the national economy, sales of heavy trucks are greatly affected by the slowing economy this year, and sales of heavy trucks decreased by 33% this year, so that the sales of natural gas heavy trucks cannot avoid such fate as a segment markets. And the sales will continue in the second half this year, said Ms. Tan.
FAW Jiefang market departement manager Li Yufeng points out that natural gas trucks are better for large fleets in terms of price, maintenance costs and attendance rates, but the sales are much affcted for the economic situation this year compared with two years ago, and the markets are not optimistic in the second half this year if there is no major favorable policies.
