AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)10/26 Report--
Tesla Model 3 (made in China), made at the Shanghai factory, has announced a specific price of 355800 yuan, and official orders have been opened and delivery is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2020. Tesla took less than a year to complete factory manufacturing and put into production, and domestic cars entered the market ahead of time, which dealt the greatest blow to the new forces of car-building in China.
"Sorry Tesla, made in ≠ made in China" was posted on Weibo on Oct. 25, aiming at Tesla. Weimar said EX5 was really made in China and specially @ Tesla. Tesla has not responded so far.
Weimar's Weibo post aroused heated discussion among netizens, and even got a frenzy from netizens. "be yourself first. It's not shameful to attack your competitors like this if the products are not mature." So said one netizen. The comments are full of words such as "touch porcelain marketing", "rub heat", "Low explosion" and so on. Some netizens said that if you engage in such a boring word game, you might as well build a car.
At present, only EX5 electric cars are on sale for Weima cars labeled "made in China". However, due to too many quality problems with Weima EX5, some car owners spontaneously set up Weima to complain about the assembly group, while some car owners parade the streets with a big label for Weima EX5: garbage trucks, be careful to enter the pit.
According to the first Electric report, Weimar complained that the conference group summed up the "12 deadly sins" for EX5: 1. The actual mileage is low; 2. Abnormal sound of steering wheel, steering wheel deviation; 3. Brake noise, downhill brake forward; 4. The smell in the car is strong; 5. Air leakage; 6. The effect of sound insulation and heat insulation of vehicles is very poor; 7. The vehicle jitters when turning; 8. The battery package grounding wire is exposed without any protective measures; 9. Air leakage from waist support; 10. Reversing image delay; 11. Vehicle-engine system data seriously deviate from the actual performance, misleading users; 12. Unilaterally change the agreement privately.
One of the Weima owners said, "the Weima EX5, which Guan Xuan NEDC has a range of 400km, can actually only run more than 200km, but Weima has always said that it is a problem with my feet." Then I practiced my footwork hard. I had reached 9% of power consumption and still ran more than 200 kilometers. Then Weimar told me to make fewer turns and try not to turn on the air conditioner. " .
Of course, the dissatisfaction of Weimar owners is not only reflected in complaints, but also for Weima EX5 marked with a big label to parade the streets. One of the Weimar EX5 owners said bluntly that the "Weimar garbage truck" must be full of stories in the process of using the car.
There is also advice from another Weima owner: air leakage, false endurance, high-speed stall, poor quality control, fraudulent sales, garbage after-sale-be careful to enter the pit.
Weimar Motor was founded in October 2015. the company, named after the German World Champion (Weltmeister), is an emerging provider of new energy vehicle products and travel solutions in China. Shen Hui, former director and vice president of Geely Holdings Group, senior vice president and chairman of Volvo Automobile in China, led the startup team. Weima Automobile is headquartered in Shanghai, Wenzhou Oujiang Estuary self-built factory, EX5 is the company's first mass-production electric car, priced between 13.98 and 239800 yuan. According to traffic insurance data, Weima ES5 from January to September cumulative license volume of 12656, higher than the second NIO 12433, and Xiaopeng 10929 cars, temporarily in the first place of the new car-building forces.
Weimar completed 3 billion yuan of C-round financing in March this year, led by Baidu Group. So far, Weima has raised a total of 23 billion yuan. Recently, Weimar is looking for a new round of financing, which could raise up to $1 billion (about 7 billion yuan) for technology research and development, brand promotion, user services and channel development, Shen said.
In addition to users complaining about quality problems, Weimar has also been sued by Geely for sky-high price claims, spontaneous combustion and other problems, life is not stable.
In September 2019, Geely Motor's lawsuit against Weima Motor four companies on the grounds of infringing trade secrets was heard in the Shanghai High Court, and the claim amount in the case was as high as 2.1 billion yuan, which is currently the largest commercial dispute in the domestic intellectual property industry. The case is still under further trial.
Media quoted people familiar with the matter as saying, "Hou, a former vice president of Geely Group and general manager of Geely's Chengdu manufacturing base, took away all the information on Geely's SUV GX7 when he left in 2018." The executive surnamed Hou and the core members of his team then joined Weima and developed the first model, EX5, on this basis. "
Public data show that a number of core employees in the early days of Weimar have Geely resumes. Including Dr. Xu Huanxin, partner and chief operating officer of Weimar, who previously led new energy technologies at Volvo.
On September 23, a Weima EX5 on a highway in Wenzhou ignited spontaneously, and thick black smoke floated under the raging fire. Weimar said that the battery pack loaded by the vehicle did not catch fire or explode in the accident, nor did it cause personal casualties or other property losses. So far, the cause of the fire is not clear.
Under the cold winter of the automobile industry, the sales of new energy vehicles declined for three consecutive months, and the decline exceeded expectations. After blind development, the new energy industry will also enter the reshuffle period. For the new power of building cars, which is in great demand for capital but the market is very weak, it may be a critical moment of life and death. Some brands do not focus on the product itself, have a poor reputation, and love to play with hot spots in marketing, so they undoubtedly "play with fire and set themselves on fire". Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the Federation of passengers, once said, "this year is the year of differentiation of the new power of car building, and next year will be the year of collapse."
