SHANGHAI, Jul. 5 (SMM) – In Hunan, distributors report slow consumption due to poor ignition battery replacement demand. This, combined with price fallback in lead market, restricts battery wholesale price hike, such as 6-QW-45Ah at RMB 190-200 on Wednesday.
Ignition battery replacement demand improves in Henan due to high-temperature weather, but most retailers have built stocks, leading to small rise in battery sales at distributors. 6-QW-45Ah was RMB 220 on Wednesday.
