AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/06 Report--

Although compared with the current domestic fuel models, the market scale of new energy vehicles is still small, but as new energy vehicles have become the trend of the new era, many car companies have accelerated the launch of new energy vehicle plans, including the new car layout of a number of multinational car companies in China.

China, as a market valued by more and more multinational car companies, and hopes to take the lead in the Chinese market with its own electric models, Volkswagen, BMW, Audi and other "big brands" have successfully completed the production of domestic models, and plan to complete the listing this year. According to media statistics, more than 9 new energy models will be launched and released by the end of this year.

As the first domestic new energy MEB platform model of Volkswagen brand, Volkswagen will provide two versions of ID.4.

Among them, the Chinese version of ID.4 has different front and rear bumper designs, as well as new wheels and roof trim, and the domestic version has a maximum mileage of 555km. The two-car positioning compact SUV is expected to be released and launched in October this year.

Models also produced by Volkswagen's domestic new energy MEB platform will also include domestic Audi e-tron and e-tron Sportback. Audi e-tron, as its first pure electric model, has been on sale overseas since last year and went on sale earlier than domestic models. As the listed model is a domestic model, put into production relatively late, so the new car is expected to be launched by the end of the year.

Has been unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show a few days ago, the appearance of the new car is basically the same as the imported version, only the details are different, the NEDC service life is 465km. The important thing is that it can effectively reduce the price after it is made in China, and the starting price of the domestic version is expected to be controlled at around 500000. In addition, the domestic version of e-tron Sportback will also be listed as a derivative model.

Even if BMW said that it was not optimistic about the development of pure electric models, BMW, both domestic luxury brands, will maintain its brand advantage in China and launch its first electric model, iX3, as Mercedes-Benz and Audi have accelerated the production of domestic pure electric models, even though BMW is not optimistic about the development of pure electric vehicles. As the first brilliance BMW iX3, it was unveiled in China in early September and came off the line at the end of September. A total of two models were launched with a pre-price of 47-510000 yuan and NEDC comprehensive mileage 520km. The appearance is based on the BMW X3 design, which retains the BMW family design while adding new energy vehicle elements, and is expected to be officially launched this year.

In addition, as independent brands, BYD and Great Wall are also accelerating the launch of more new energy models to achieve multi-layout to seize market share. Among them, the brand-new model of the Great Wall, which was unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show, is a good cat. The whole car is based on the concept of "retro futurism" and continues the round design style of the Euler family. The two round headlights have the taste of Porsche frog eyes. According to the official pre-sale price of 10.5-145000 yuan, the new car is expected to go on sale in October, and the official NEDC mileage has reached 501km.

Following the launch of the Song PLUS fuel version of the new car, the launch of the BYD Song PLUS EV model has also been put on the agenda. In terms of appearance, Song PLUS EV uses a brand-new front face design, which is quite different from the Song Pro model on sale, and the front face of the pure electric model uses a closed design. The new EV version will be equipped with blade batteries and will be available in both NEDC 405km and 505km versions, which will go on sale at the end of this year, while the DM plug-in hybrid model is scheduled to go on sale in the first quarter of next year.

Honda CRV as the brand's best-selling SUV model, in order to enrich the market choice, the plug-in hybrid version of PHEV was also unveiled at the Beijing Auto Show. However, Honda did not disclose too many details of the power specifications at the auto show, saying only that it would be equipped with a naturally aspirated gasoline engine with Atkinson cycle. In appearance, the Honda crv PHEV plug-in hybrid model basically continues the design of the ordinary version, except for the logo with "three wings" on both sides. In addition, the model increases the length of the car body by 73mm, which consumes only 1.1 liters of fuel for 100 kilometers, and is expected to go on sale by the end of this year.

As a new force in China, the performance of NIO has tended to grow steadily, but due to the listing of more and more competitive products, in order to ensure the market share, the listing of new cars in various fields must be the advantage of brand development. According to the plan, Xilai's first pure electric car is also expected to be unveiled at the end of the year, and its main competitors will include Tesla Model 3, Polar 2 and other models.

With the release and listing of more and more domestic new energy models, it indicates that the Chinese market has become a must for new energy vehicles in the future. As the world's largest single market for new energy vehicles, China has a global market share of more than 50% in 2019, selling a total of 1.21 million vehicles for the whole year. However, with the ebb of domestic policy, the new market has entered the stage of transformation, gradually from policy-driven to market-driven. Therefore, China's new energy vehicle market, which accounts for half of the world, has become a must for multinational vehicle enterprises.
