The Cadillac Society Take

Cadillac China sales increased significantly during the fourth quarter of 2020, which becomes the second substantial improvement in sales volume achieved in the Asian country after a solid increase of 28 percent in the third quarter. In fact, the 80,064 units that Cadillac sold during Q4 represents the highest quarterly figure ever achieved by the luxury marque in China, which further establishes its spot as its biggest market.

Thanks to this unprecedented performance, Cadillac again set an annual sales record in China with a total of 230,527 deliveries in 2020 – the fourth consecutive year that the world’s largest auto market have led the brand’s global sales by market. The performance represents an 8 percent increase compared to the 213,717 units sold in 2019, a very significant achievement considering the various difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020.

Cadillac states that the substantial 56 percent jump was driven by its fresh crossover lineup, comprised of XT4, XT5 and XT6. The trio saw a cumulative 40.3 percent growth year-over-year. In addition, the all-new Cadillac CT5 posted its best performance during the period, with sales of the new sedan growing rapidly for four consecutive months.
