However, 20 19 did not become a year of reversal, and the downward cold current of the automobile market still failed to stop. From 1 to1this year, China's automobile production and sales reached 23.038 million vehicles and 23 1 1 10,000 vehicles respectively, down 9% and 9 1% respectively.
Today is 20 19, 12, 3 1, which means that 20 19, which was originally full of expectations, ended in surprise, accident and anxiety in a blink of an eye.
Looking back at the tail of 20 19, we will find that many "great events" really happened this year. Everything is closely related to us, and everything affects our lives. ...
First, subsidies for new energy sources are declining.
In recent years, driven by the policy, China's new energy vehicles have made great progress, ranking first in the global market for four consecutive years. The stimulus of the policy has also prompted some ticket players to enter the new energy automobile industry in an attempt to earn some money by obtaining subsidies. However, the survival of the fittest is an inevitable law of market competition. The decline of new energy subsidies is like looking at a magic mirror, which has exposed some car companies.
According to the new subsidy regulation of 20 19, the local subsidy for new energy vehicles was cancelled, and the national subsidy standard was reduced by more than 50%. In other words, the overall reduction of subsidy standards for new energy vehicles is 70% ~ 80%.
On the whole, the decline in subsidies not only intensified competition, but also accelerated the reshuffle of the industry, prompting the market share to be concentrated in leading car companies. At the same time, under the benign competition of less subsidies and no subsidies in the future, more high-quality boutique models will be born, and consumers will ultimately benefit.
Second, the "National Six" is advanced.
With the increase in the number of automobiles and the increasingly serious environmental pollution, the country's updating speed of automobile exhaust emission standards is also faster and faster. According to the original plan, the "National Six A" emission standard will be implemented on July 1 day, 2020, but many provinces and cities such as Beishangguang have advanced the "National Six A" standard to July this year.
In the final analysis, the national five models are not allowed to be sold, which has little impact on ordinary consumers, but it is a devastating blow to automobile manufacturers! After all, Liu Guo's arrival was too sudden. In many car companies or 4S stores, there are quite a few national five models piled up.
What shall we do to lower the price?
For the sake of clear water and blue sky, the emission regulations are naturally selfless. Because of this, the civil fit of National Five has lost most of the market, and Cadillac ATS-L has also entered the clearance stage due to emissions problems. At present, the discussion about the Sixth National Congress is still in the CQC (China Quality Certification Center) meeting. Due to emission problems, the Middle East version of parallel imported models is likely to be completely rejected, including "Little G" Jimny, China Standard Pajero and Toure.
Friendly reminder, please cherish the last good opportunity to bargain-hunting.
Third, ETC is promoted throughout the country.
Electronic toll collection system (electronic? Toll? Collection), abbreviated as ETC. It is quite common all over the world, and it is usually charged through the transceiver (OBU) placed on the windshield of the vehicle. When the transceiver on the vehicle passes the toll point, it will send a signal to the sensor of the toll point, and the system will record the date and time when the vehicle passes. Some need to store the value first, and some bill the owner every month.
In May this year, the Ministry of Transport of the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Application Service of Electronic Fast Toll Collection in expressway". According to the latest data released by the Ministry of Transport, "By the end of 20 19, 12 and 19, the number of ETC customers in China had reached 1922344, which exceeded the issuance target. Moreover, the average utilization rate of ETC of passenger cars imported from expressway is 7 1.3%, an increase of 1.3 1 percentage point from the previous month. "
But some friends are still struggling: do you want to install ETC?
Judging from the current trend, the multi-scenario application of ETC in the future should be a foregone conclusion, and owning ETC can also greatly improve commuting efficiency.
But only if you don't plan to change trains in the near future. Although the installation of ETC card is more convenient than in previous years, the cardholder needs to go to the ETC card service point in person when canceling, which is costly in time. If you don't cancel, the next owner can't install ETC card for your existing vehicle, because the frame number of the vehicle is already in the ETC card system, and only one ETC card can be handled for one frame number.
Fourth, Tesla set up a factory in Shanghai.
Just yesterday, 65438+February 30th. The Tesla Giga Shanghai, which lasted only 10 months, was completed and put into production, which made Musk have to marvel at the "Shanghai speed".
With the first batch of 15 Tesla? Models? The official delivery of electric vehicles and larger-scale order production will begin in 2020. According to the official forecast, in the first half of 2020, Tesla Giga Shanghai can reach the mass production target of 2,000 to 3,000 vehicles per week, with an annual output of about? 1.5 million vehicles, compact SUV? Models? Y and the new Model S can also catch up with the progress of mass production.
The biggest significance of domestic production is of course the price. At present, the official price of domestic Tesla standard battery life upgrade version is only 355,800 yuan, which is less than the imported version by 1 10,000 yuan, but it cannot be ignored. A few months ago, all Tesla models entered the catalogue of new energy vehicles exempted from vehicle purchase tax. More than half a month ago, domestic models? Entering the Catalogue of Recommended Models for the Promotion and Application of New Energy Vehicles means that you can enjoy a state subsidy of nearly 25,000 yuan. Once and for all, the threshold for owning Tesla has been lowered a lot.
Not only that, but the current model? The localization rate of 3 is only 30%, and Tesla's goal is to reach 70% by the middle of next year and 100% by the end of the year. The increase of localization rate undoubtedly represents the decrease of cost. According to Tesla's inconsistent price adjustment trend, the 20% price reduction estimated by the media may not be out of thin air.
Tesla's prospective car owners can really get up next year!
Fifth, rights protection incidents have repeatedly "out of the circle"
Although there are many incidents of car owners defending their rights every year, this year is especially "out of the circle". I wonder if you in front of the screen are as impressed by these two things as I am.
1, Tesla reduced the price, and the owner pulled a banner to protect rights.
This is the biggest price cut since Tesla started to enter the China market in March this year. The model with the highest drop, Tesla model? x？ P 100D, 34. 1 1 ten thousand yuan cheaper.
Some car owners have just bought a car for two days, only to find that it has dropped by hundreds of thousands, and the sales have not been informed in advance. The more they think about it, the more wronged they are. Tesla owners who suffered losses went to Tesla stores to hold banners to protest and wrote an open letter online. Tesla is required to consider returning the difference and protect the rights and interests of old car owners.
Under pressure, Tesla said that all car owners who bought Tesla before the price adjustment in March 1 can enjoy a half-price discount for automatic assisted driving or automatic driving function upgrade. However, this solution has not been recognized by all car owners. They think that Tesla's compensation method is to sell products in disguise.
To tell the truth, ordinary car companies will not suddenly cut prices sharply, but slowly and continuously offer small discounts to test the market reserve price. They first send some goods or services, then lower the price a little, then send some things, and then lower the price a little, and so on. Tesla's technology is really amateur.
2.Xi An Mercedes-Benz female car owners "sit on the cover" to defend their rights
However, compared with Tesla, the hottest news in the car circle this year is that an female car owner is sitting on the hood of Mercedes-Benz 4S shop to defend her rights. She bought an expensive Mercedes-Benz car with a loan. The car didn't open a 4S shop, and it was found that the engine was leaking oil. After fifteen days of communication, the final solution is to replace the engine. The new car you just bought hasn't been driven yet, so you need to tear it down and change the engine. The lady resigned.
The incident also involved the industry rule "financial service fee" of 4S stores. The female car owner said that she was charged if she didn't know to buy a car? 1.5? Ten thousand yuan for Mercedes-Benz financial services, but there is no service throughout. Subsequently, the Mercedes-Benz female car owner submitted the materials and asked the Mercedes-Benz 4S shop for a refund. The market supervision department immediately arranged the handling after receiving the transfer from the superior, and urged the 4S store to properly resolve the withdrawal agreement according to law. 62 days after climbing the hood of Mercedes-Benz, in June this year, the female car owner took back her new car from the Mercedes-Benz 4S shop, and the financial service fee of 1.5 million yuan was also refunded.
This incident can cause such great public pressure, mainly because Mercedes-Benz has had frequent and intensive quality problems, but they are all handled in an evasive way. As one of the most important automobile markets of Mercedes-Benz, consumers in China have not received high-quality products and services, which is no wonder that the problem of Xi 'an car owners will have such a great response.
Summary:
Anyway, 20 19 is almost over. I wonder what the automobile market will be like next year. Will our consumers' life of buying and using cars become better and more convenient?
Let's enter 2020 with great expectation!
