    Uxin Revenue Jumps 75% YoY in Q2 2026 but Gross Margin Turns Negative on Auto Price War

    Question

    Uxin Revenue Jumps 75% YoY in Q2 2026 but Gross Margin Turns Negative on Auto Price War

    Direct answer

    Chinese used car e-commerce platform Uxin reported Q2 2026 revenue of RMB 1.51 billion, up 75% year-over-year, alongside an 89% increase in retail volume to 19,610 units. However, rapid new vehicle price drops across China pushed Uxin's gross margin to negative 0.7%. The results illustrate that while transaction volume remains robust, broad-based automotive price competition continues to depress realized inventory spreads across Chinese dealership networks.
