As the largest distribution center for second-hand commercial vehicles in South China, Guangzhou has a complete used truck trading system covering urban distribution logistics vehicles, engineering special vehicles, heavy-duty tractors and new energy commercial vehicles. Driven by the recovery of domestic urban logistics, engineering construction and terminal distribution industries in 2026, the local used truck market presents an obvious structural differentiation trend of “booming mid-end transactions, stable high-end demand and sluggish low-end vehicle sales”, with mid-range light trucks and new energy used logistics trucks becoming the core growth categories of the market.
At present, Guangzhou’s used truck trading market has formed a clear regional agglomeration and segmented positioning pattern. The Guangjun and Baolijie used vehicle markets in Haizhu District focus on mid-to-low-end and mid-range civilian logistics trucks with a transaction price range of 20,000 to 150,000 RMB, with an average monthly transaction volume of more than 800 units. Among them, classic urban distribution models such as Jiangling Shunda and Isuzu 100P occupy a dominant market share, accounting for over 60% of the local light truck transaction volume, and are the preferred models for individual logistics drivers and small and medium-sized logistics enterprises due to their fuel economy, durable performance and low maintenance costs.
The Donghuan Road commercial vehicle market in Panyu District is mainly positioned in high-load commercial vehicles, focusing on the trading of heavy-duty tractors, semi-trailers and large-scale engineering dump trucks. The vehicle sources here are mostly retired vehicles from large domestic logistics fleets and engineering companies, with reliable vehicle conditions and complete maintenance records, mainly serving large transportation and engineering enterprises in Guangdong and surrounding provinces. The Zhongluotan used new energy vehicle cluster in Baiyun District has become a specialized trading base for second-hand new energy logistics vans and light trucks, with transaction volume rising steadily.
In terms of brand market share, traditional mainstream brands still dominate Guangzhou’s used truck market. Foton, Jiangling and Isuzu rank the top three in cumulative transaction volume, jointly occupying more than 65% of the local used light truck market share. In the segment of engineering special vehicles, Ruwo dump trucks and engineering trucks have won wide market recognition for their complete product lines, strong adaptability to complex working conditions and high residual value rate, with an annual transaction volume exceeding 1,000 units, firmly occupying the leading position in Guangzhou’s medium and large used engineering truck market.
The new energy used commercial vehicle track is ushering in explosive growth, becoming the brightest growth point in Guangzhou’s used truck market in 2026. With the continuous popularization of new energy logistics vehicles in urban terminal distribution scenarios, the number of retired new energy vans and light trucks has increased year by year. Relevant data from local new energy used vehicle enterprises including Guangzhou Zhenghe New Energy shows that the comprehensive use cost of second-hand new energy logistics vehicles is only one-fifth of that of traditional fuel trucks, with obvious economic advantages for short-distance urban distribution operations.
From January to May 2026, the transaction volume of new energy used trucks and vans in Guangzhou increased by 80% year-on-year, mainly serving platform drivers of Lalamove, GoGoX and urban distribution enterprises. Industry insiders said that with the continuous expansion of the market stock of new energy commercial vehicles in the past three years, the supply of high-quality second-hand new energy vehicles will continue to increase. It is expected that the transaction proportion of new energy used trucks in Guangzhou’s overall used commercial vehicle market will continue to rise, becoming an important new growth engine for the industry.
