The number of imported car dealerships does not have an exact and fixed figure. This mainly depends on numerous factors. On the one hand, different imported car brands have different positioning. For high-end luxury brands, such as some supercar brands, the number of their dealerships is relatively small. There may be only a few in core cities across the country because their target audiences are limited. While for comprehensive imported car dealers like Zhongshitong, their layout across the country will be more extensive, and dealerships will basically be set up in first- and second-tier cities to facilitate consumers' car purchases.
On the other hand, vehicle models also have an impact. Dealerships for popular vehicle models may be more, while those for less popular vehicle models are relatively fewer. Generally speaking, for large-scale comprehensive imported car dealerships like Zhongshitong, there will be dozens of dealerships in major cities across the country, covering most economically developed areas. But for minority brands or vehicle models, there may be only a few dealerships across the country. So it's hard to generalize, and specific analysis of specific brands is needed.
