AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)12/07 Report--

Since the new energy market continues to improve in the second half of the year, the market share of new power car companies has been significantly expanded, which makes Evergrande, also one of the new power car companies, can not wait. A few days ago, a video about his new car running on the road was exposed.

Recently, from a popular 15-second video of the whole network, a number of new Hengchi cars appeared. In the video, two new cars with two-color bodies and sedan models drive slowly out of the gate marked "Evergrande". Although the video lasts only 15 seconds, it basically shows the overall design of the new car. In addition, it can also be speculated from the video that the new car will be the latest new car base of Evergrande.

From the exposed video, the shape of Hengchi 1 is round and full, and the whole is relatively simple and avant-garde, basically continuing the new car styling design at that time. On the side of the body, the new car uses a slippery back style, as well as hidden door handles, hidden exterior rearview mirrors and full-size variable glass skylights that make the car look very technological.

However, it is understood that the car is not a brand new mass production car, but a test car of Evergrande's first new car. The new car is positioned as an all-electric ultra-luxury D-class sedan with a wheelbase of 3150mm, which means it has surpassed Tesla's ModelS2960mm and is equipped with 22-inch glossy wheels. According to Evergrande's plan, Hengchi 1 will be unveiled at the beginning of next year at the earliest, and mass production will not be achieved until the end of the year.

In fact, the actual photo of the car was exposed a week ago. from the photos released by a car blogger, there are photographers at the new scene, and the scene environment is basically similar to the live video of this exposure. according to another video of Evergrande, we can see that this is shooting a promotional film for Hengchi 1, in which there is not only a new Hengchi car, but also a top view of Evergrande's entire base. It means Evergrande is nervously preparing for the launch of its first model.

Since the state vigorously promoted new energy vehicles, to now, affected by the decline of subsidies, the domestic new energy vehicle industry has encountered a bottleneck, coupled with the significant impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the entire automobile industry this year, what is more, many new power car companies have frequently withdrawn from the market, and even "died in the plan" because of financial problems.

Although Evergrande Automobile, as a new force with strong background and financial support of Evergrande Group, has always been a car-building road smashed out by capital, and its slogans are loud. Xu Jiayin said, "Evergrande wants to change lanes to overtake, to sum up five words: buy, buy, circle, big, good." He also said that with the help of so many leading companies on Evergrande's car-building road, it is difficult not to succeed. But in the current market environment, even with the rise of new forces and the influx of more overseas brands, time is just as tight for the infancy of Evergrande.

In this regard, before the emergence of new volume cars, Evergrande has been promoting its Hengchi through "momentum", which can not only maintain the popularity of its own brand, but also allow Evergrande to release more progress in line with its interests. Evergrande shares soared on the good news, with Evergrande up more than 4 per cent year-on-year as of 11:00 today.

In August this year, Evergrande officially launched the "Hengchi" brand, with the debut of six new cars, including Hengchi 1, Hengchi 2, Hengchi 3, Hengchi 4, Hengchi 5 and Hengchi 6, covering A to D classes, as well as sedans, sedan cars, SUV, MPV and crossovers. Evergrande revealed at the half-year results conference that trial production will be launched in the first half of next year and mass production will be realized in the second half of the year.

At present, Evergrande Automobile has officially launched trial production in two major production bases in Shanghai and Guangzhou. It is understood that Evergrande "Hengchi" series models will be mass produced in the second half of 2021. After the production workshop reaches full production, it will be able to produce 1 car per minute. According to the plan, Evergrande will achieve annual production capacity of about 1 million vehicles by 2025 and 5 million by 2035.
