Yoliang Supports the 2026 Beijing Consensus on China’s Motor Vehicle Auction Industry, Advancing High-Quality Development Through Technology
Beijing, October 16, 2026 — The 4th China Motor Vehicle Auction Industry Conference opened in Beijing under the theme “Strengthen the Foundation, Connect with Global Markets, and Explore New Paths.” Yoliang , one of China’s leading motor vehicle auction businesses by transaction volume and a representative of outstanding auction enterprises, was invited to participate in the conference and its industry discussions.
Yoliang joined industry representatives in witnessing the official release of the 2026 Beijing Consensus on China’s Motor Vehicle Auction Industry and expressed its commitment to putting the industry-wide declaration into practice. Upholding the principles of compliance, integrity and professionalism, the company will continue to use technological innovation to advance the digital and intelligent transformation of China’s motor vehicle circulation industry.
The conference brought together representatives from relevant government authorities, industry associations, motor vehicle auction companies, automakers, vehicle trading markets, financial and insurance institutions, and service providers across the automotive value chain to discuss emerging challenges and opportunities in the motor vehicle auction market.
Discussions addressed several issues facing the industry, including the need for more standardized asset disposal practices, insufficient coordination in cross-regional asset circulation, limited public understanding of the industry’s broader value, and market disruption caused by homogenized services and excessive price competition.
Participants emphasized that the value of motor vehicle auctions lies in credibility, coordination and professional expertise. Auctions are an established mechanism for standardized and efficient asset disposal and price discovery, rather than merely a means of matching buyers and sellers.
At a critical stage in the industry’s transformation, conference participants jointly issued the 2026 Beijing Consensus on China’s Motor Vehicle Auction Industry. The consensus calls on industry participants to strengthen market trust, improve resource connectivity, promote development through standardized practices, expand market opportunities through innovation, and create greater value through collaboration. It also highlights the role of auctions in facilitating used vehicle circulation, stimulating demand for existing vehicle assets and contributing to the development of a unified national automotive market. The document sets out five key action areas to guide the industry’s next phase of development.
Advancing Industry Standards Through Professional Auction Services
As a leading participant in China’s motor vehicle auction industry, Yoliang is committed to implementing the Beijing Consensus. Since its establishment, the company has focused on end-to-end motor vehicle auction services, with compliance, integrity and professionalism at the core of its operations.
In line with the consensus, Yoliang continues to strengthen its auction transaction systems, vehicle inspection and evaluation procedures, information disclosure mechanisms, and delivery and fulfillment processes. These measures help establish a transparent and traceable transaction framework, supporting trust across the used vehicle auction market.
With a nationwide service network and large-scale transaction capabilities, Yoliang Auctions ranks among the leading platforms in China’s motor vehicle auction industry by transaction scale. Its services support a diverse range of clients, including automakers, automotive dealer groups, mobility platforms and professional B2B used vehicle dealers. Through standardized auction services, Yoliang facilitates cross-regional used vehicle circulation in China and supports the international distribution of Chinese used vehicles.
Applying AI and Digital Technology to Modernize Auctions
Yoliang continues to invest in technology development, building an integrated technology system spanning AI-powered vehicle inspection, online auctions and cross-border circulation. These efforts align with the consensus’s call to advance technological innovation and digital transformation.
The company’s proprietary vehicle inspection system, Yoliang SmartCheck, combines AI-based vehicle-condition analysis with Internet of Things (IoT) hardware. The system is designed to improve inspection accuracy and efficiency, standardize and visualize vehicle-condition information, and strengthen vehicle documentation and photographic records. By addressing information asymmetry in used vehicle transactions, SmartCheck provides technical support for more transparent and digitally enabled auctions.
For international markets, Yoliang has developed Yoliang Global, its independent global platform for used vehicle inventory. The platform has attracted interest from international used vehicle dealers and serves as an online sourcing and transaction channel for buyers seeking vehicles from China. Yoliang also works with partners across the industry ecosystem to extend its services to professional used vehicle dealers worldwide.
Building on the advantages of auctions in bulk asset disposal and transparent price discovery, Yoliang is developing compliant cross-border vehicle circulation services. These efforts support the conference’s focus on connecting with global markets and advancing the consensus’s objective of exploring export-driven growth opportunities.
Five Key Commitments of the 2026 Beijing Consensus
The 2026 Beijing Consensus on China’s Motor Vehicle Auction Industry identifies five priorities for the industry’s development.
1. Uphold Integrity and Strengthen Industry Credibility
Auction businesses should strictly comply with the Auction Law of the People’s Republic of China and other applicable laws and regulations, adhering to the principles of openness, fairness, impartiality and good faith.
Standardized procedures should cover asset inspection, information disclosure, notification of defects and settlement of proceeds. False advertising, concealment of vehicle-condition issues and unauthorized fees should be prohibited. These measures are essential to maintaining orderly auctions, protecting the legitimate rights and interests of all parties, and safeguarding the credibility of motor vehicle auctions.
2. Promote Technological Innovation and Digital Transformation
Auction businesses should strengthen technology development and digitalize their operations, including standardized vehicle records, photographic evidence, online bidding and traceable transaction data.
Digital tools should improve vehicle documentation, cross-regional auctions and remote delivery and settlement. Industry participants should also work toward shared data standards, using technology to reduce costs, improve efficiency and reinforce the industry’s professional image through traceable digital services.
3. Explore Export Opportunities and New Sources of Growth
The industry should gradually develop standards for used vehicle exports and capitalize on opportunities arising from the international expansion of China’s automotive sector.
Building on the transparent price discovery and bulk disposal advantages of auctions, companies should develop used vehicle export and asset disposal services in an orderly manner. Standardized procedures for vehicle selection, pricing and delivery should be established, while overseas channels are developed in compliance with applicable requirements. These efforts can create new pathways for the global circulation of domestic automotive assets.
4. Develop Specialized Market Segments and Avoid Destructive Price Competition
Auction companies should move away from short-term strategies based solely on cutting commissions or sacrificing service quality to win business.
Instead, companies should build competitive advantages around their own capabilities and resources, including specialized segments such as state-owned asset disposal, premium used vehicles, bulk inventory vehicles, accident-damaged vehicles and salvage vehicles. By respecting the underlying value of the market and maintaining sustainable commission structures, the industry can shift from price-based competition toward competition based on service quality and value creation.
5. Build a Collaborative Ecosystem Across the Automotive Value Chain
Industry participants should reduce regional barriers and facilitate the orderly movement of vehicle inventory and buyer resources across regions. Auction companies should strengthen communication and mutual trust and establish constructive consultation mechanisms.
Collaboration should extend to upstream and downstream partners in traffic administration, vehicle dismantling, logistics and finance. Industry associations and specialized committees should also be encouraged to lead the development of industry standards. Through joint development, coordinated governance and shared benefits, the industry can build a more integrated motor vehicle auction ecosystem.
Working Together to Advance High-Quality Industry Development
The 2026 Beijing Consensus on China’s Motor Vehicle Auction Industry reflects a shared industry vision that aligns closely with Yoliang’s long-term development principles.
The motor vehicle auction industry is entering a period of transformation characterized by greater standardization, digitalization and internationalization. Sustainable development depends not only on integrity and compliance, but also on continued technological innovation.
Going forward, Yoliang will continue to put the consensus into practice by strengthening its end-to-end auction services and maintaining rigorous standards for asset inspection, disclosure of vehicle defects and transaction procedures. The company will also increase investment in AI-powered inspection, data-driven transaction matching and other digital tools, while further connecting domestic vehicle circulation with overseas export channels.
At the same time, Yoliang will deepen collaboration with industry peers and partners across the automotive value chain to reduce regional barriers and help build a healthier industry ecosystem.
Through these efforts, Yoliang aims to support the transparent and efficient circulation of motor vehicle assets, improve the quality and efficiency of auction services, and contribute to the high-quality development of China’s motor vehicle auction and used vehicle circulation industries.
