AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/26 Report--

On Oct. 25, Xiaomi officially responded to netizens' questions about the transfer order for Xiaomi SU7, which can be bought on an unofficial platform.

The official said: note that there is a phenomenon of peddling Xiaomi SU7 orders on non-Xiaomi official platforms, and in order to protect your legitimate rights and interests and good market order, specially remind Xiaomi that car orders are strictly prohibited from resale. Please do not believe that sales are not limited to WeChat groups, unofficial platforms, out-of-store peddling and other means. Users are advised to place orders to buy Xiaomi cars through Xiaomi APP, Xiaomi WeChat Mini Programs and Xiaomi Alipay Mini Program. In addition, officials also pointed out the possible risks of issuing orders or illegal collection and resale orders through other channels, for example, this can cause users to suffer from deposit fraud, temporary price increase of scalpers, inability to identify car owners, failure of car control account authentication, loss of car owners' rights and interests, damage to property, and even joint and several violations of the law.

The automobile industry pays attention to salted fish APP, a second-hand platform, and there are many posts on the platform about the transfer of Xiaomi SU7 orders, with the amount of transfer ranging from 3000 to 8000 yuan. It is worth mentioning that at the bottom of these transfer posts, many netizens asked about the specific transfer fees.

Data show that Xiaomi SU7 is the first model of Xiaomi car, which was launched on March 28 this year, with a total of three models, including 215900 yuan for the standard edition, 245900 yuan for the Pro edition and 299900 yuan for the Max edition. As soon as the new car hit the market, the official news that the first batch of 5000 limited edition models of Xiaomi SU7 was sold out in less than a minute on the night of its release.

Behind the popularity of models, there is no doubt that many people will not be able to buy them, which also makes a lot of resale orders about Xiaomi SU7 models on the Internet. Of course, Xiaomi's official customer service has also responded to the resale of Xiaomi's SU7 models on the Internet, saying that it is not recommended to sell orders on third-party platforms because of the transaction risks. At the same time, Xiaomi Automobile officials also have regulations on transfer orders, requiring that only parents, children, spouses and other relatives can successfully transfer orders.

In fact, the phenomenon of reselling the price difference of popular models occurs frequently on second-hand platforms. Many sellers will post online to resell their earlier orders plus part of the fee. For example, before the hot market Tesla model 3, MJ M9 models and other models have been reselling orders. Of course, the level of the transfer fee is mainly determined by the pick-up time. If you want to pick up the car earlier, the transfer fee will naturally be higher. On the Xiaomi SU7, in addition to increasing the transfer fee by picking up the car earlier, the transfer fee for the official limited original version is also very high. It is understood that compared with the other three models of Xiaomi SU7, the original version of Xiaomi SU7 has more personalized features, such as adding an exclusive limited metal character mark and a numbered nameplate in the position of the steering wheel. In addition, consumers who snap up the original version of Xiaomi SU7 can also get Lei Jun's signed Bluetooth key.

Of course, why there are so many netizens interested in the transfer of Xiaomi S7 order over the past few months, which has something to do with the delivery time of Xiaomi S7. The auto industry focuses on Xiaomi Automobile APP to see that if an order is placed for a SU7 Pro version, the delivery time is 22-25 weeks, or about 5-6 months, according to the page. This time, for many users, is indeed a bit long, which also makes many users want to buy transfer orders issued by the network, after all, this can mention the car earlier. But as officials say, resale orders are risky, and it is safer to place orders through official channels.

For the transfer of orders, it is not just Xiaomi cars that are strictly forbidden to resell. Prior to this, Tesla was rumored to ask customers to sign a "letter of commitment not to resell". The commitment letter is mainly aimed at some users who have one or more cumulative orders to buy multiple Tesla cars. Officials require these users to promise not to transfer or actually transfer to any third party within one year after the car is picked up. If you default, you need to pay a penalty of 20% of the vehicle invoice price, otherwise Tesla has the right to restrict services such as vehicle binding account change and super charging. Xiaopeng Motor has also issued relevant policies on the transfer order, such as setting the ID card real name association for all its product orders, and the identity information needs to be verified before the contract before entering the delivery process. If the customer cancels the reservation for personal reasons, the vehicle order will be brought back into unified management, and there is no possibility of resale of private second-hand orders.

Although many car companies have introduced some policies to prohibit the resale of models, there has been no reduction in the number of online posts about the resale of popular models. In this regard, some industry insiders pointed out that the transfer order can not be eliminated. What car companies need to do is to speed up delivery. According to Xiaomi's official delivery target of 20, 000 units in October, Xiaomi is expected to reach its full-year delivery target of 100000 units ahead of schedule in November and try to hit 120000 deliveries. With the increase in the delivery of Xiaomi cars, the subsequent resale orders for the transfer of Xiaomi SU7 may be reduced.
