Automobile leading joint venture vehicle

This year is a proud year for independent brands. According to statistics from the National Passenger Vehicle Market Information Association, China's self-owned brand sedan market accounted for 23.5% of last year, an increase of 4.1% year-on-year, becoming the fastest growing segment by country.

Autonomous cars become the main force

It has been the same as last year's export volume, reaching 173,000 vehicles. From the quantitative analysis, the trade in cars is still larger than exports, but large and medium-sized passenger cars, trucks, and especially special vehicles, have a much higher export volume than imports. In export vehicles, self-owned brand cars have become the main force.

Among them, even the silent Shuanghuan cars have begun to export this year, and on November 6th, they also joined Italian OMCI. The company signed a contract to purchase 2000 CEOs.

Experts pointed out that at present, China's auto market is experiencing a rapid increase in the number of export business entities, export-oriented parts and components, vehicle exports are mainly commercial vehicles, and export markets are diversified. The main directions for the export of self-owned brands are countries and regions with lower entry barriers, such as Africa and the Middle East. With the increase in the scale of exports, the export destinations of independent brands have also begun to upgrade, and they have turned to the developed countries with higher access thresholds. Countries and regions such as Central and South America, Central Asia, Russia, and Eastern Europe have entered the vision of Chinese independent brand manufacturers.

Technological innovation

Fully grasp the core competitiveness

With the development of Chinese cars, Chinese cars have their own independent intellectual property rights in the fields of engine, transmission, and mold development, and they have mastered their core technologies. Engine manufacturing technology is no longer a problem. Geely Automobile CVVT The engines and Chery's new generation of ACTECO engines have been mass-produced. Chery even supplied 1.6-liter and 1.8-liter gasoline engines to Fiat. The annual supply will exceed 100,000 units. This is the first time that China's own-brand automobile companies have exported large quantities to developed countries. car engine.

Some of China’s auto parts have even taken the lead in the world’s automobiles. For example: BYD, Zhongtai Automobile will start the entry of Chinese automobiles into the era of electric vehicles. Its electric vehicles F3e and Zotye electric vehicles will be unveiled at this year's Beijing International Motor Show. In addition, at the current Beijing auto show Chery launched three concept cars in one breath.

As a witness to the development process of China's auto industry, Brilliance has been pursuing “Building China's own car” and has been making unremitting efforts to realize the national car dream of the Chinese people. From "global technology, Chinese market" to "Chinese market, Chinese technology" and then to "Chinese technology, global market", what Brilliance Automotive has to do is realize the introduction of global technology to integrate into the Chinese market, produce China's own technology and promote it globally. This process. China's first self-developed turbocharged engine, the Brilliance 1.8T, is a good example.
