In the blink of an eye, 2015 is about to pass. For the Chinese bus industry, it has been a year full of challenges and opportunities. Although the growth rate of the conventional power bus market and overseas markets has slowed down, new energy buses have emerged, with products and markets becoming more mature. This year, the industry situation has changed dramatically, and the market position has been reshuffled. 2015 is destined to be an extraordinary year for the development of the entire Chinese bus industry.
The industry situation is remarkable, and the rapidly developing Zhongtong Bus has frequently brought surprises to everyone. According to statistics, in November 2015, Zhongtong's various bus sales exceeded 2,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 120%, with sales revenue exceeding 900 million yuan. From January to November, the total sales volume exceeded 14,500 units, a year-on-year increase of 24%, and sales revenue grew by over 75%. Currently, Zhongtong Bus's December production battle is in full swing, and it is expected that production will exceed 2,000 units again. There is no doubt that Zhongtong Bus has prepared an impressive report card for its 2015.
On December 18, 2015, the results of the 10th series of activities influencing the Chinese bus industry, the China Bus Network reader survey selection event, were officially announced. After more than 1 million online votes, Zhongtong Bus lived up to expectations, winning six awards including the 2015 Industry Best Employer, 2016 Recommended New Energy Bus Model, 2016 Clean Energy Star of the Bus Industry, and 2016 Safety Star of the Bus Industry, becoming the biggest winner of the event. These six awards are a recognition of every achievement of Zhongtong Bus.
Rich and strong enterprises, returning to society, the "Best Employer" is well-deserved.
Among all the awards, the most attention-grabbing is undoubtedly the "2015 Annual Best Employer in the Bus Industry." With the highest number of votes, Zhongtong Bus successfully won this award. This is the second time Zhongtong Bus has been crowned after winning this title in the 2013-2014 selection. Winning this title twice is a recognition of Zhongtong Bus's achievements in the past two years, especially in 2015.
