8月22日，吉利汽车发布其2018年上半年业绩报告。报告显示，吉利2018年上半年净利润增加54%至66.7亿元人民币，总收益（不包括领克合营公司的收益）超537亿元，实现了36%的增长。吉利方面称，其业绩增长主要原因在于其产品组合（即高利润车型占比较高）及经济规模有所提升。吉利汽车2018年1-6月总销量达到766,630辆，较去年同期增长44%，约完成其全年158万辆销量目标的49%。值得注意的是，吉利本年度新车基本集中在下半年推出，而上半年则少有新产品上市，在这一情况下能够取得如此销量表现，给人印象深刻。今年前六个月，吉利品牌推出了博瑞GE和帝豪GSe跨界电动车，领克品牌推出领克02。吉利下半年将推出博越系列的一款新版中型博越SUV、一款全新A0级SUV、一款燃油经济性高的全新A级轿车、两款纯电动汽车车型、升级版以及主要现有车型之新能源版本车型。另外，领克品牌将推出领克03，以及领克01、领克02以及领克03的插电混动车型。
