Wholesale vehicle sales in China fell by 15% in February as the industry grappled with fewer working days due to the Lunar New Year holidays and the withdrawal of government incentives. Domestic demand saw a sharp 34% decline to 950,000 units, though the impact was softened by a 58% jump in exports, which reached 590,000 vehicles.
