AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/04 Report--
Today, according to media reports, Geometry's EX3 kung fu cattle has officially stopped taking orders since August 2022 due to the shortage of chips and batteries. Officials say users who have signed a car purchase contract will try their best to ensure the car purchase rights of existing car-booking users.
It is worth noting that since the listing of EX3 Kung Fu Niu, it has been at the top of the list of complaints about car quality net for many months in a row, and the main complaint problem of car owners is that they can't bring up the car. The problem of slow delivery has always existed, and now you can still see many netizens' complaints on the complaint platform. One netizen said: geometry ex3 Kung Fu Niu has not been able to pick up the car since he booked the car. The car was booked in early February, and the sales said to pick up the car within 4 months, but now it has not been delivered. I hope to pick up the car as soon as possible. Another netizen complained that the car was booked in October last year and the contract agreed to pick up the car in December, but it has been 10 months now and the car has not been brought up and asked to be delivered as soon as possible.
On the question of car owners reflecting the long delivery time, some media contacted the official customer service, which said, "at present, the number of EX3 kung fu cattle is limited, we can not determine the exact time for users to arrive at the car, we can only communicate with dealers." The person in charge of Geometry Automobile said in an interview with the media, "EX3 Kung Fu Niu is now mainly unable to keep up with its production capacity, resulting in delivery delays, and models of the same class basically take more than 3 months. In the case of battery shortage, this problem cannot be solved quickly, and models that have placed orders will be delivered as soon as possible."
According to relevant data, Geometry is a pure electric brand of Geely. Currently, its models on sale include Geometry A Pro, Geometry C and Geometry EX3 Kung Fu Niu, among which Geometry EX3 Kung Fu Niu launched two models on November 14 last year, with a price range of 5.88-68800 yuan. In terms of power, it is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with maximum power 70kW (95Ps) and maximum torque of 180N ·m, which has both sports and economic driving modes. Equipped with a battery pack with a capacity of 37.23kWh, the CLTC mileage is 322km. The price was raised in March 2022 due to the rise in the price of raw materials, and the current price range is 6.88-78800 yuan, which is the lowest price of Geometry Motors.
As for the difficulty of lifting cars, it is not just the EX3 Kung Fu Niu. Due to the supply of spare parts and the epidemic, both new energy vehicle brands and traditional fuel car brands have encountered the problem of "difficult to pick up cars." coupled with the skyrocketing prices of raw materials, the difficulty of picking up new energy vehicles has also become a common phenomenon in the market. many models have also been forced to stop sales. for example, in February this year, Euler cars, black cats and white cats stopped taking orders. The official Wechat account of Changan New Energy issued a notice on June 30 that the purchase of Changan New Energy Mercedes-Benz E-Star models was suspended. The announcement shows that due to the shortage of upstream raw materials and capacity restrictions on vehicles and spare parts, the delivery cycle of the model is longer, so the collection of orders for Mercedes-Benz E-Star models will be suspended from 00:OO on July 1, 2022.
From Euler cars black cat and white cat to Changan New Energy Benz E-Star and EX3 Kung Fu Niu, it is not difficult to see that the models suspended from subscription are models with relatively low positioning and high sales. For car companies, although the model sales volume is high, but because the model price is relatively low profit, coupled with the continuous rise of swimming raw materials also makes the originally meagre profit small mini electric vehicles unable to bear. Suspending subscription on the one hand can alleviate the difficulty of new car delivery, on the other hand, it is also out of profit considerations.
Generally speaking, in recent years, due to the lack of core and epidemic and other factors, the production capacity of automobile manufacturers has also been restricted, which has led to the continuous delay of car delivery time. At present, the automobile industry is still in a state of shortage of key components. In addition, due to the war between Russia and Ukraine, the epidemic situation, logistics and other factors, the prices of raw materials continue to rise, car companies also have to suspend orders to ease the delivery of the situation. According to AFS statistics, as of July 24, due to chip shortage and other factors, the global automobile market has reduced production by about 2.7873 million vehicles this year. AFS predicts that global carmakers will cut 3.65 million vehicles by the end of the year due to lack of cores.
