AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/31 Report--

Recently, some netizens posted a number of pictures on Weibo, showing that a number of ideal ONE cars were affixed with rights banners that read, "the ideal car threatens car owners, Lang Lang is so arrogant!" , "cyclists are more ideal to talk about feelings, and ideal to treat cyclists as fools!" , "ideal ONE without conscience fraudulent sales, abandon loyal fans!" Wait for rights slogans.

In fact, the ideal ONE owners to protect their rights is expected. According to previous reports, the new ideal ONE was released and launched on May 25, with a price of 338000 yuan and 348000 yuan. The new model does not change much in appearance and interior, mainly in the software and hardware of the auxiliary driving system and configuration adjustment and upgrade, the new car added / upgraded AD advanced driving assistance system, Gaud HD map, double "range 3" chip and other configurations, the power system is still composed of a 1.2T three-cylinder engine and generator, pure electric mileage 188km, integrated mileage 1080km.

Compared with the old model, although the price of the new model has been raised by 10,000 yuan, it has been upgraded in software, hardware and configuration of the auxiliary driving system. On the whole, the new model is still very sincere. However, it is not friendly to owners who have mentioned the old ideal ONE in April and May, and the upgrade of the old model is normal, but the key point is that consumers do not know that the ideal car will be available in the new ideal ONE.

According to previous reports, after the launch of the new ideal ONE, ideal car founder Li Xiang also promoted the new ideal ONE on Weibo and shared many of his views on the new model. However, there is a lot of dissatisfaction under the Weibo of the ideal car. In the view of these car owners, either before the car is picked up, the sales explicitly inform that there will be no modified models on the market, or they know from the seller that the price of the new ideal ONE may reach the level of 400000 yuan, while the power system has not been greatly upgraded, so they put forward the old ideal ONE. However, the listing price of the new ideal ONE is only more than 10, 000 yuan, but the configuration of software and hardware has been significantly improved, and car owners soon after picking up the car think that the sales of the ideal car have deceived them.

In fact, there are a lot of reports about such incidents, and similar incidents have occurred in Xiaopeng, which is also a new force in car-building. In July 2019, Xiaopeng launched the 2020 Xiaopeng G3. Compared with the price, the starting price of the long-lasting model is 159800 yuan, which is almost the same as that of the 2019 Xiaopeng G3, but with more mileage than the 169km.

Many car owners expressed dissatisfaction with this, because as soon as they picked up the car, they ushered in a modified model, and the price was not adjusted but the configuration was increased. A user who just picked up the car said: "A car will be booked on July 9 and a new model will be released on July 10. It costs 2000 yuan more, has a range of 170km, upgrades the brakes, helps, and so on." Who feels better? I was obviously cheated. " "it's normal to upgrade, but it's wrong to hide the need to upgrade and sell the old model to us," he said. "

From July 10 to 12, Xiaopeng Automobile and its chairman, he Xiaopeng, were scolded by old car owners under Weibo. On the 12th, he Xiaopeng issued a long Weibo apology and solution, but the old car owners did not accept it. On July 13, the collective protection of the rights of the owners of Xiaopeng G3 2019 broke out. Owners of Xiaopeng cars in Guangzhou and Beijing pulled banners to protect their rights, putting up slogans such as "fraudulent car owners", "whoever buys them" and "infringes upon the legitimate rights and interests of consumers". Almost all of their demands are to return their cars. At the same time, Xiaopeng Automobile headquarters, located in Guangzhou, was also surrounded by car owners.

The demands of the old car owners are mainly three: 1. Replace the battery with higher battery life; 2. Free replacement long-lasting version; 3. Just return the car. On July 18, Xiaopeng offered two options for old car owners: first, the promised repurchase subsidy of 10,000 yuan was converted into 100000 Xiaopeng Mall points, which can be used to buy boutique, after-sales maintenance, charging, etc.; second, within three years of car purchase, Xiaopeng buys back the old car at a 40% discount, and car owners can buy new Xiaopeng models as long as they make up the price difference.

Of course, similar incidents have happened to Tesla many times. Tesla, who has reduced prices many times before, has been affixed with the name of "leek", but in Tesla's view, it is normal behavior to adjust the price of products. Today, this situation occurs in the ideal ONE model, so far ideal car has not made a relevant response to this matter. In this matter, some car owners have tried to protect their rights through legal channels.
