    Uxin reports Q2 revenue up 75% to RMB 1.51B but gross margin drops to -0.7%

    Question

    Uxin reports Q2 revenue up 75% to RMB 1.51B but gross margin drops to -0.7%

    Direct answer

    China's automotive market continues to experience intense price competition among domestic EV manufacturers, causing secondary market vehicle valuations to depreciate rapidly. While Uxin expanded unit transaction volumes by 89% to 19,610 vehicles in Q2 2026, lower transaction prices constrained unit profitability. Gross margins fell into negative territory at -0.7%, highlighting the margin drag that persistent upstream manufacturer discounting imposes on used automotive retail platforms.
