March into space! Trump said that he would form a "space force".

       CCTV News:Some people say that the contest in the military field in the 21st century is not limited to land, sea and air, and "space" will become the new main battlefield. As the only superpower in the world and a leader in space science and technology, the United States has always attached importance to maintaining its military superiority in space. In his speech at the Marine Corps Air Base in Milla, President Trump proposed that the United States should establish a "space force".

       However, Trump did not elaborate on the relevant ideas of the space force. The Pentagon has not yet responded to this. In fact, this is not the first time that the United States has proposed the establishment of a "space force."

       In July 2017, the US House of Representatives proposed the establishment of a new service in the FY 2018 National Defense Authorization Bill — — Space forces. The proposal envisages that the United States will set up an independent space force in the navy with reference to the Marine Corps model. Supporters believe that the establishment of an independent and space-focused military force will help the United States stay ahead in the space race. The opposing side believes that the idea of establishing a space force is not mature enough and needs more research. Later, the bill was not passed by the Senate.

       [Extended reading] The "space forces" of all countries in the world

       The "space force" is a Xinjiang force that relies on satellite information reconnaissance, guidance and navigation and space weapons to fight in outer space. It is a new field of military competition among countries in recent years. Then, from a global perspective, what are the big countries in the field of "space forces" at present?

       The American "space force" has a long history.

       The US military currently has five major services, namely the Navy, the Army, the Air Force, the Marine Corps and the Coast Guard. Although there is no independent space force, the North American Air Defense Command, established in 1950s, actually has such a function. At that time, this department was mainly responsible for satellite launch, tracking other countries’ satellites and early warning. Now it has gradually developed into a multi-functional department with reconnaissance and early warning, space attack and space mapping and support.

       Russia has repeatedly integrated and optimized the establishment of air and space forces.

       Russia, another military power, has already established a powerful space force, which has been integrated and optimized many times.

       In 2001, the Russian government decided to set up a new service — — Space forces. At the end of 2011, the Russian space force was merged into the Russian air and space defense force. In 2015, the Russian Air Force and the Air and Space Defence Force merged to form a new service of the Russian armed forces — — Air and space forces, whose duties include aviation and anti-missile early warning system management, space monitoring, spacecraft launch and control, etc., prevent Russia from being hit by the sky and space.

       India and other countries also have air defense space combat modules.

       In addition to the United States and Russia, India and other countries are also developing their own air defense space combat modules, including early warning of air and space, early warning and reconnaissance of earth orbit, etc., but there is still a certain gap between the United States and Russia.

Know the car emperor: over 2,000 models have been evaluated in 5 years, and it is the first to build a complete evaluation system at room temperature and limit.

On the evening of December 22nd, Know Car Emperor held the 2023 Winter Conference. According to the person in charge of Chedi’s winter test project, after five years of normal temperature test and three years of extreme environmental test, Chedi has accumulated more than 2,000 test models, becoming the first automobile content platform to build a full-scene and systematic test. In 2024, Knowing Car Emperor will increase the investment in intelligent and safety measurement, and carry out more in-depth and professional tests to provide users with reference.

According to reports, in the past five years, Know Car Emperor has carried out large-scale tests on popular models that are popular in the market and concerned by users, with more than 2,000 measured models and more than 900,000 data. On the basis of normal temperature test, since 2021, Knowing Car Emperor began to conduct winter test and summer test in extremely cold and high temperature environment, covering nearly 300 new energy vehicles in three years, and built a complete test system and an industry-leading measured database with the scene of "normal temperature+limit".

In order to describe the assisted driving ability and the performance of the intelligent cockpit more strictly and accurately, the car-knowing emperor also developed a test tool and analysis algorithm. In the assisted driving test, based on the visual perception algorithm of neural network, the vehicle’s centering, following distance and response time in the lane are quantitatively tracked, which solves the limitation of subjective evaluation of assisted driving in the past. In the vehicle testing, key data such as application response time, vehicle sensitivity and fluency can be obtained through frame-by-frame analysis of self-developed testing tools and visual software.

In 2024, Knowing Car Emperor will increase investment in both intelligence and safety, and set up research institutes and special laboratories in conjunction with relevant state departments and authoritative testing institutions to carry out more in-depth and professional tests, so as to provide users with more objective and fair test results.

At the meeting, Zhiche Emperor announced the test results of normal temperature and winter in 2023. The data shows that China brand new energy vehicles continue to maintain their leading position in joint ventures and imported vehicles. In the normal temperature and high-speed endurance test of pure electric vehicles in 2023, 9 of the top 10 are China brands, and the domestic pure electric vehicles with endurance test in winter are the top 13. In the intelligent test, under the extremely difficult snow, night and backlight environment, the domestic production rate of 8 passing models reached 100%.

With the gradual transformation of the automobile industry to new energy sources, users have higher and higher demand for real owner content and long-term in-depth experience content. Based on the change of users’ needs, Knowing Car Emperor will launch the product of "Owner’s Word of Mouth". This product invites real car owners to evaluate their vehicles, and combines the dimensions of appearance, space and intelligence that users are most concerned about. Through the self-developed automobile industry model, the contents of massive car reviews are semantically analyzed, classified and summarized, and displayed at the product end. When users need to know or buy a car, they can see it at first sight by opening the car-understanding App and entering the car page.

In order to let more car owners participate in the content co-creation and measured experience, Knowing Car Emperor will also launch the "Million Car Owners Evaluation Plan". The plan includes four sections, namely, the car manager’s evaluation, the public test challenge, the public test experience camp, and the winter and summer test open day. Users can participate deeply and share the personal test data and experience with more people. For the high-quality car owners in the evaluation plan, Knowing Car Emperor will provide a number of support and incentive measures, including building a brand-new user growth system, selecting the top 100 car owners every year, rewarding millions of creative funds, giving head users the qualification to participate in official activities, giving priority to participating in activities such as experience camps and open days, so that every sharing by users can bring value to others.

It provides a brand-new modernization model (harmony) for the whole world.

  Chinese-style modernization is a pioneering work in the development of human society, which provides a brand-new modernization model for the whole world and increases confidence for more countries to explore their own modernization road independently.

  From the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the theory of Chinese modernization was put forward and expounded in depth, to the general secretary of the Supreme Leader’s in-depth explanation of the rich connotation and world significance of Chinese modernization on a series of bilateral and multilateral occasions, and to the fact that the general secretary of the Supreme Leader recently emphasized the correct understanding and vigorous promotion of Chinese modernization at the opening ceremony of the seminar on studying and implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, "Chinese modernization" has become the key word for the international community to understand China. International people believe that Chinese-style modernization is a pioneering work in the development of human society, which provides a brand-new modernization model for the whole world and increases confidence for more countries to explore their own modernization road independently.

  Since modern times, modernization has been the historical trend of world development, and realizing modernization is the common aspiration of people of all countries. Chinese-style modernization is a great achievement made by people of all ethnic groups in China under the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the long-term exploration and practice, and it is also the broad road to building a strong country and national rejuvenation. On the basis of long-term exploration and practice since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has successfully promoted and expanded Chinese modernization through theoretical and practical breakthroughs since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Chinese-style modernization is a socialist modernization led by the Communist Party of China (CPC), and the leadership of the Party determines the fundamental nature of Chinese-style modernization. The Communist Party of China (CPC) led the people of China to successfully walk out of the Chinese-style modernization road, showing a big pattern of leading the times, living up to the people’s great feelings and helping the world.

  When a country moves towards modernization, it should not only follow the general law of modernization, but also conform to its own reality and have its own characteristics. Chinese-style modernization not only has the common characteristics of modernization in all countries, but also has distinctive characteristics based on its own national conditions. Chinese-style modernization is a modernization with a huge population, the common prosperity of all people, the coordination of material civilization and spiritual civilization, the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, and the modernization of peaceful development. Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China summarized the China characteristics in five aspects of Chinese modernization and profoundly revealed the scientific connotation of Chinese modernization. Chinese-style modernization is clearer, more scientific, more sensible and feasible, and it has shown strong appeal in the world. French President Macron said that the Chinese modernization development model is admirable. More and more international public opinion believes that Chinese modernization is the latest development of world modernization theory and will create a new modernization history.

  It took China several decades to complete the industrialization process that western developed countries have gone through for hundreds of years, creating a miracle of rapid economic development and long-term social stability, and opening up broad prospects for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is an important reason for the strong attraction of Chinese modernization. Especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China have worked together to complete the historical task of getting rid of poverty and building a well-off society in an all-round way, and achieved the goal of the first century’s struggle, which won a historic victory in the history of the development of the Chinese nation and had a far-reaching impact on the world. "Under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, China has lifted hundreds of millions of people out of poverty and created a miracle of human poverty reduction. This achievement belongs to China and the world." "A China with stable society and strong economy will be the common welfare of the whole world." "The successful exploration of modernization by the most populous country in the world is a great contribution to the cause of human progress" … … More and more international public opinion believes that the achievements of Chinese modernization are inspiring, which fully shows that all countries can have their own modernization.

  What kind of modernization road a country chooses is determined by its historical tradition, social system, development conditions, external environment and many other factors. Different national conditions will lead to different ways of modernization. Chinese-style modernization, deeply rooted in Chinese excellent traditional culture, embodies the advanced essence of scientific socialism, draws on and absorbs all outstanding achievements of human civilization, represents the development direction of human civilization progress, and shows a new picture different from the western modernization model, which is a brand-new form of human civilization. Chinese-style modernization has broken the myth of "modernization = westernization", displayed another picture of modernization, expanded the path choice of developing countries towards modernization, and provided a Chinese plan for mankind to explore a better social system. Martin jacques, a British scholar, believes that Chinese modernization not only opens up many new possibilities for China’s future development, but also provides new ideas and new thinking for world development. Robert kuhn, chairman of the American Kuhn Foundation, said that Chinese modernization contains China’s insight into the new path of modernization and provides a new modernization model for all mankind, especially developing countries.

  "We will promote the overall progress of mankind with Chinese modernization, bring new opportunities to the world with the new development of China, and provide more stability and certainty for the turbulent world." China, which is constantly moving towards modernization, will certainly provide more opportunities for the world, inject more impetus into international cooperation and make greater contributions to the progress of all mankind.

Intelligent car evaluation: 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version

  With the rapid development of intelligent networked vehicles, automobile intelligence will become the focus of automobile enterprises for a long time to come. Among them, the intelligent car machine system has played an important role, and has gradually been favored by more and more consumers, and even become one of the necessary conditions for car purchase. In the field of smart cars, Huawei, which does not build cars, has set off a wave of enthusiasm in the automobile industry with its unique ecological empowerment. The Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version evaluated this time is equipped with HarmonyOS car, and it is the latest version 4.0. So for the 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version, what are the bright performances of its smart car? This issue of "Intelligent Car Machine Evaluation" will comprehensively evaluate the car machine system of 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance edition from two dimensions: system hardware and system software.

  First, the system hardware

  1. Hardware parameters

  The 2023 Aouita 12 Four-wheel Drive Performance Edition is equipped with a 15.6-inch floating touch screen, where the vehicle operation functions are basically integrated. The resolution of the central control screen is high, the screen display is clear, and the screen accounts for a large proportion, and the visual impression is quite good. It is worth mentioning that the 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version is also equipped with a 35.4-inch 4K resolution integrated remote screen, which can actually be regarded as an instrument panel, and its placement position is closer to the front of the car. The left side of the remote screen displays vehicle-related information, while the right side displays tire pressure monitoring, clocks, mileage and other information, and the display effect is very intuitive.

  2. Hardware evaluation

  The 15.6-inch central control panel does not reflect light even if it is sunny during the day, and the use experience is quite good. The multi-functional area of the steering wheel adopts roller design, which is simple and convenient to operate. Among them, the right wheel integrates the steering wheel customization function, and the driver can set the functions controlled by the right wheel through the central control panel, including switching driving modes, switching multimedia audio sources, taking photos inside, etc.

  Second, the software system

  1. Software parameters

  2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance edition supports OTA upgrade. The HarmonyOS 4.0 system has added a super desktop, which optimizes the distributed collaborative experience of multiple devices in the cockpit, adapts to more third-party applications and covers more scenes. At the same time, thanks to Huawei’s Ark graphics engine, the operation fluency has been upgraded. The measured 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version completed the boot in only 2 seconds, and performed well.

  2. Basic application evaluation

  The interface of 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance car machine system is very beautiful, and you can switch wallpaper with a flick of your finger, which is very convenient to operate. System functions are set at the bottom of the screen, and the placement position is more reasonable. In addition, the layout of instrument information displayed on the remote screen is also very reasonable and the display is very clear. Unfortunately, topic switching is not supported.

  DOCK bar has many common functions, such as trunk, screen brightness, headlight control, charging port, vehicle power-off, automatic parking and driving mode, which improves the convenience of daily operation.

  2023 Aouita 12 4WD Performance Edition is equipped with 360 panoramic image and transparent chassis/540 image function. It is measured that the quality of the reversing image is clear when there is plenty of sunshine during the day, but after switching to 3D mode, the edge of the image is distorted. The 360 panoramic image supports multiple viewing angles, and it is also equipped with parking auxiliary lines, which can help drivers to finish daily parking more easily. In addition, in the upper right corner setting, the 2023 Aouita 12 Four-wheel Drive Performance Edition also provides "narrow track automatic activation image" and "turn signal activation image", which drivers can choose according to their driving habits.

  3. Map navigation evaluation

  The 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version is equipped with the car version of Gaode Map. It should be noted that the APP that enters the navigation interface is not an icon of Gaode Map, but an icon named "Huawei Smart Drive", which may be a bit confusing for the first time. Of course, the driver can also open the navigation interface through voice. After entering the interface, the whole map is very concise, and the operation process is consistent with that of the mobile phone, which has good convenience.

  After searching the destination, the navigation will provide three different types of routes for drivers to choose from. At the same time, the navigation settings also provide route preferences such as avoiding congestion, not taking high-speed, giving priority to high-speed, charging less, being the fastest, giving priority to major roads, etc. In addition, the system will also provide the driver with the location of the charging pile on the whole route, which is convenient for the driver to charge the car. After determining the navigation route, the route and a small amount of information will also be displayed in the remote screen.

  Like most new energy vehicles, the car system provides female voice, children’s voice, girl voice, male voice and custom voice, and drivers can choose according to their own needs.

  4, audio-visual entertainment evaluation

  The 2023 Aouita 12 Four-wheel Drive Performance Edition comes with some commonly used apps. At the same time, Huawei APP Mall also provides a very rich selection of third-party apps to meet the entertainment needs of consumers. In addition, the evaluation car also provides a variety of sound effects modes and headrest modes, and the sound wave simulation is also provided at the bottom of the adjustment interface, and the internal sound waves of "V6", "V8" and "V12" engines can be simulated. The measured sound is relatively false, but the starting point is still quite good.

  The 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance radio is located in the upper left corner of the music interface. After entering the main interface of the radio, FM broadcasting and network broadcasting will be provided at the top, which is quite selective.

  5. In-vehicle interconnection evaluation

  The car systems of all 2023 Aouita 12 models support 5G network, and the search speed is fast. In the process of mobile phone Bluetooth measurement, the speed of mobile phone Bluetooth search and connection is relatively fast and the convenience is excellent. In addition, thanks to the rich ecosystem of HarmonyOS system, after logging into Huawei account, users can control the related equipment in their home in real time through the control center on the car, such as sweeping robot, intelligent air conditioner, air purifier, lights, sockets and switches, and can also transfer photos and videos to and from the car through Huawei mobile phones, tablets, computers and other equipment, thus truly realizing the wisdom of everything.

  6. Intelligent interactive evaluation

  Interactive experience is definitely the focus of "involution" for smart cars today. The 2023 Aouita 12 4WD Performance Edition, like most other mainstream smart cars, only supports voice interaction, and does not set the interactive mode of gesture operation. The measured speech interaction reaction speed is fast and the recognition rate is high. At the same time, fine instructions such as "main driving window is open 40%" and "switching driving mode" can also be recognized.

  In addition, for the 2023 Aouita 12 Four-wheel Drive Performance Edition, we have also tested the fuzzy semantic recognition of this voice system, and interacted with the car engine with four commands: "I’m a little hungry", "I’m a little tired", "I’m not feeling well" and "I’m a little thirsty" respectively.

  After the actual measurement, it was found that the four instructions failed to get effective feedback. When "I’m a little hungry" was said, the system would reply "I suggest you go to eat some rice", but the restaurant was not recommended on the map. When you say "I’m a little tired", the system will answer "I suggest you have a rest", but the "rest mode" is not turned on. This kind of "nonsense literature" needs to be improved in the future.

  Summary:

  Through a series of experiences, the overall performance of the 2023 Aouita 12 four-wheel drive performance version of the intelligent car system is satisfactory. Especially with the addition of HarmonyOS system, the operation fluency is impressive, which can be described as "silky". However, during the actual measurement, some problems of this system were also found, for example, there is a certain "nonsense literature" in the voice system. If we can provide more intimate feedback in the future, it will surely be more pleasing. I hope it can be improved in the next OTA upgrade.

In March, the new energy auto market: the ideal worry of the world is still there, and traditional car companies have found the "wealth password"

Text | Front Travel

On the last day of March, china automobile dealers association released a bad forecast: the car market was lower than expected in March, and the terminal sales of passenger cars were around 1.65 million.

At the end of the quarter, in order to sprint the target, all car companies started a new round of price wars, and the passenger flow increased. However, consumers were in a strong mood to hold money for purchase, and the order conversion was insufficient, which led to the weak growth of the auto market in March.

Of course, there are also relatively optimistic news. Due to the price drop, a large number of potential customers started to use new energy vehicles. The Association predicted that the new energy penetration rate in March could reach 45.5%. This level is already at the historical high level of full-month permeability, but is it really the case? We may know a thing or two from the car companies that have announced the results of new energy.

AITO, the ideal fault leads, and the zero run surpasses Weilai and Tucki.

The new forces have always been the "vanguard" to announce sales results. As of press time, AITO, Ideality, Krypton, Weilai and Tucki have all announced their deliveries in March.

Among them, AITO delivered a total of 31,727 new cars in March, surpassing the ideal and becoming the first monthly sales of new power brands. Specific to the vehicle types, the new M7 and the new M9 delivered 24,598 and 6,243 vehicles respectively, with the former being the "No.1 in the sales volume of new power vehicles" and the latter being the "No.1 in the sales volume of new power vehicles above 500,000 yuan", which strongly seized the ideal share in the high-end new energy family car market. For reference, the new M7 sold 18,479 vehicles in February, up 24.88% year-on-year. It must be said that its market performance is really eye-catching.

However, it may be that the performance of the new M7 in the field of inquiry is too strong, but it makes the introductory M5 look a bit "redundant". You know, the threshold for buying a car for the M5 is 249,800 yuan, which is completely consistent with the new M7 with higher positioning. Consumers are definitely more willing to choose the new M7 with more space. At present, Xiaotong hasn’t found the news about the change of the M5, but in order to gain a wider audience, it will be the focus to ask how much the M5′ s future price can drop.

LI delivered only 28,984 vehicles in March, and the sales volume of the new power was surpassed by AITO. However, LI made great progress, with vehicles delivered in March increasing by 39.2% year-on-year and 52.9% year-on-year in the first quarter. Moreover, as of March 31st, LI has delivered 713,764 vehicles, becoming the first brand of new forces in China to complete the milestone of delivering 700,000 vehicles.

In March, 2024 L-series SUVs and a new pure electric MPV ideal MEGA were ideally launched. Even though the ideal MEGA didn’t get the official expected response after it went on the market, it did contribute some sales at present. The 2024 L series has indeed been fully upgraded, and the price has hardly changed, and it is still the backbone of the brand.

In addition, LI’s next focus will be the upcoming ideal L6. As a reference, the car purchase threshold of the ideal L7 is 301,800 yuan, and the ideal L6 with more entry-level positioning will undoubtedly have a lower starting price. In this way, the ideal L series will at least no longer have no price advantage when competing with M7.

In addition to AITO and LI, Zero Run, Weilai and Tucki also announced their deliveries in March, with 14,567 vehicles, 11,866 vehicles and 9,026 vehicles respectively.

Zero run can surpass Weilai and Tucki, and the official said that C10 is the main reason. A medium-sized SUV only needs 128,800 yuan, and many configurations are ahead of the same level. Zero-run C10 has become the "flat replacement" of the ideal L series with its obvious cost-performance advantage. In addition, the newly released Zero Run C11, Zero Run C01 and Zero Run T03 have applied a brand-new electronic and electrical architecture, which has been upgraded in appearance, interior, intelligent driving, cockpit and other dimensions.

Xiaotong believes that the improvement of product strength is undoubtedly the main reason why zero-run cars can surpass Weilai and Tucki under the premise of ensuring cost performance. It is worth noting that the zero-run car has signed a contract with Huawei, and the HarmonyOS native application will be mass-produced in the future. The high-end and smooth smart cockpit has become a car purchase factor for more and more consumers. The cooperation between Zero Run and Huawei will not only provide users with a smarter car experience, but also make the brand quickly enter the first echelon in the intelligent field.

The monthly sales of Weilai and Tucki are growing steadily. Weilai did not push new moves in the first quarter, but Xiaotong learned that the switching of 2024 models under Weilai brand has been basically completed, and the intelligent cockpit and intelligent driving field will usher in a major upgrade in April.

Tucki launched the brand-new MPV Tucki X9 this year, and has delivered nearly 8,000 vehicles in three months, which is a brand-new sales pillar. However, for Xpeng Motors, there is still much room for improvement. To this end, Tucki will release a brand-new sub-brand at the Beijing Auto Show, and the product price will drop to the range of 100,000-150,000 yuan, competing with traditional brands such as Ai ‘an and BAIC to grab a special car and enter the A-class car market.

Generally speaking, the head market structure of the new energy auto market has not changed in March, and it is still asking the world, ideal zero run, and a number of new forces are eyeing. What is worrying is that the new power camp has begun to show obvious differentiation, especially the sales achievements of brands such as Weilai and Tucki have been delayed, which will make people wonder whether they have touched the ceiling.

BYD and Geely "blossomed more", while GAC Ai ‘an and SAIC Volkswagen have hidden concerns.

Traditional brands release sales data slowly, but there are also brands such as BYD, GAC Ai ‘an, Geely, Wuling and SAIC Volkswagen that quickly follow up. Among them, BYD is still the "leader" in new energy sales. In March, it sold a total of 301,631 new energy passenger cars, an increase of 147.8% from the previous month.

Specifically, Dynasty Family and Ocean Net are the absolute sales force of the Group, with a total of 286,712 vehicles sold in March, up 151.4% from the previous month. Tengshi’s chain-on-chain growth also exceeded 100%. Looking up to Auto and Equation Leopard, they positioned the mid-to high-end market, but thanks to the steady growth of market demand, they increased by 39.7% and 53.7% respectively.

?

After entering March, the products of Dynasty Family and Ocean Net quickly followed the "Glory Edition" model, and the cost performance was significantly improved, which further stimulated the sales of the already best-selling cars. The newly listed BYD Yuan UP has pulled the car purchase threshold of small pure electric SUV to less than 100,000 yuan, and the cost performance is also very high, but the vitality of the small SUV market is not high, and the role of Yuan UP has not been highlighted yet.

GAC Ai ‘an sold a total of 32,530 vehicles in March, an increase of 95.1% from the previous month. Although this figure is compared with the monthly sales level of about 40,000 vehicles in the second half of last year, it is still in a steady growth state.

In order to stimulate the sales growth, GAC Ai ‘an launched the corresponding preferential policies in March, and the official said that it won the order volume of nearly 1,600 vehicles on March 11th. At that time, some media even predicted that the sales volume of GAC Ai ‘an in March was expected to exceed 50,000 vehicles.

Obviously, the temporary surge in sales does not mean that it can be maintained, and it is worth noting that its high-end brand Haobo has no obvious effect on promoting brand sales.

Haobo currently has two products with high quality and cost performance. Consumers can buy a medium-sized and large-sized pure electric product for more than 200,000 yuan. However, the image of "network car" left by Ai ‘an to users is too profound. Although Haobo does not take the B-end market, the binding between Haobo and Ai ‘an is too deep, which affects the speed of Haobo’s market expansion. How to change the stereotype of users on the brand is a problem that GAC Ai ‘an needs to face.

Geely Automobile Group sold 150,835 vehicles in March, of which the penetration rate of new energy was about 30%, and a total of 44,791 new energy vehicles were sold. Among them, Galaxy series and Geometry series sold 10,185 vehicles and 12,882 vehicles respectively, up by 12% and 23% respectively. The Krypton brand delivered 13,012 vehicles in March, with a year-on-year increase of over 95%. The brand-new Krypton 001 and Krypton 007 both played a key role.

Wuling did not announce the sales volume of all models, but only announced the sales data of Wuling Binguo and Wuling Binguo PLUS in March: 12,694 vehicles.

At present, in the small pure electric vehicle market, BYD Seagull, BYD Dolphin and Wuling Bingo are at the leading level of faults, but Wuling Bingo is still at the level of being "suppressed" by dolphins by about 1000 vehicles. Wuling Bingo PLUS, which has been on the market for more than a month, has really helped Wuling Bingo alleviate a lot of competitive pressure.

From the data point of view, the combination of Wuling Bingo+Wuling Bingo PLUS is still inferior to the combination of dolphins and seagulls, but Wuling has gradually shifted the position of strategic products from mini-cars to small cars. At present, the market share of mini-cars continues to shrink, and the sales volume is directly halved compared with the peak period. Except for Hongguang MINIEV, the sales volume of models such as Panda mini and Chery Ice Cream is only 10,000.

The positioning of a small car is similar to that of a mini-car, and it is also used for daily commuting, but it pursues space and comfort more, and its configuration is relatively higher. According to the latest purchase tax policy, pure electric vehicles with a battery life of less than 200km and a battery life of not less than 120km at low temperature can not enjoy the purchase tax exemption, which gives small new energy vehicles a competitive advantage.

Considering that both dolphins and seagulls have launched glory versions, consumers might as well start positioning smaller cars with higher budgets. It is almost certain that the relevant policy requirements will only get higher and higher, and the shrinking of the mini-car market is irreversible. It is the best choice for car companies to transfer the battlefield in time.

Compared with domestic brands, the achievements of joint venture brands in the new energy market are not mainstream, but several car companies have gradually gained a foothold, and SAIC Volkswagen is one of them.

According to official data, the sales volume of SAIC Volkswagen ID. Family once again exceeded 10,000 vehicles in March, among which Volkswagen ID.3 became the main sales force of Volkswagen ID. Family without any surprise. However, the official has not released the detailed sales data of its specific models. It is not difficult to guess how bleak the sales performance of other models except Volkswagen ID.3 is.

This product front that needs "one enemy against a hundred" seems to be helpful to the sales data, but it may gradually become synonymous with "cheap big bowl", and the more the brand goes up, the more difficult it is. After all, "waiting for the party" may be waiting for the opportunity to cut prices.

However, SAIC Volkswagen does not seem to intend to change the status quo. According to the latest news, the government also uses a number of financial policies and hedging rates to market Volkswagen ID.3, further emphasizing the cost-effective nature of products. In addition to SAIC-Volkswagen, pure electric products such as SAIC-GM Buick and BMW Brilliance are also powerful terminal promotions.

Obviously, the joint venture brand has long recognized its limitations in the field of new energy, but if it wants to change the status quo, it can’t just rely on actions such as enriching the product line, but needs to start changing from the starting point of the product. Facing the increasingly fierce competition in the new energy market, Volkswagen chose to join hands with Tucki; Audi and Zhiji platform reached a cooperation; Dongfeng Honda has developed Lingxi brand for the new energy market …

They realize that this is ahead of most joint venture brands, but it is not so easy to change consumer stereotypes. According to the practice that almost all car companies choose "price for quantity", in the future, joint venture brands will present a multi-brand front in the new energy market, with at least one responsible for volume and one responsible for high-end.

Write it at the end

Although there are still many car companies that have not released the sales data in March at the time of writing, judging from the published results, the new energy brands in March basically got rid of the impact of the off-season in February, and their development is returning to the right track. Especially the automobile brands that have been in the leading position in sales volume have almost reached the peak at the end of last year, but it will take longer for Weilai and Tucki, which only launch pure electric products, to recover.

However, the fun is yet to come. The first quarter has passed, and car companies need to focus on the future in time.

At the end of April, Beijing Auto Show, the first large-scale international auto show in China this year, will officially open. In the face of the upcoming "splash of wealth", various manufacturers will launch the most advanced products, technologies and even brand-new sub-brands at that time. In addition to the new brand to be released by Tucki, Xiaotong learned that Cadillac Aoge, Zero Run brand new model, Geely Galaxy E5, Extreme Yue 07 and other products will all be unveiled.

These brands have made some achievements in the field of new energy, and will make in-depth adjustments in the positioning, experience and market competitiveness of new products, so as to adapt to the increasingly fierce competition in the new energy market. It is foreseeable that the growth potential of the new energy auto market will be deeply explored in April due to the Beijing Auto Show, and the results will only be better than that in March.

Exclusive secret! Who is the "big brother" behind Jietu?

In this era of dazzling automobile brands, every new car release seems to cause a heated discussion. But today, we don’t talk about the well-known luxury brands, nor chase the latest and most dazzling technology trends, but dig deep into a name that has sprung up in recent years-"Jietu". Are you also curious about which brand Jetway belongs to? Don’t worry, next, let me take you to find out, and make sure that you can enjoy it after reading it!

When it comes to Jietu, many people’s first impression may be those SUVs with online values, spacious space and full intelligent configuration. But if you really want to ask about the "big boss" behind Jietu, many people may be stunned. In fact, the answer is both simple and complicated: Jetway, which belongs to Chery Holding Group, is a bright star under the Chery commercial vehicle sector. However, it is neither the traditional sequence of Chery automobile nor the direct blood of Kerry commercial vehicle, but a brand-new and independent product sequence. Well, does this answer surprise you a little?

From birth to independence

The time goes back to 2018, which was a season of spring breeze and warmth. Jietu was officially born as a brand-new product sequence under Chery Holdings. Different from the traditional route of Chery Automobile, Jietu has a clear positioning from the beginning-focusing on the SUV market, and taking "Travel+"as its brand concept, it is committed to becoming an ideal partner for family travel. In just a few years, with its unique market positioning and precise marketing strategy, Jietu quickly gained a foothold in the market and gradually developed into an independent automobile brand.

Product is king, strength speaks.

When it comes to Jetway, I have to mention its product matrix. From the initial series to the later and other popular models, each model has accurately cut the market demand. High face value, large space, and intelligent configuration are all labels of Jietu products. Especially with the increase of second-child and multi-population families, Jietu’s "Travel Plus" concept is deeply rooted in people’s hearts and provides a perfect solution for family travel.

Not only that, Jetway is still trying to innovate. For example, in the field of new energy, Jetway has also launched a number of new energy vehicles to keep up with the pace of the times. This forward-looking layout undoubtedly adds more possibilities for the future development of Jietu.

The "highlight moment" of Jietu

2024 is an extraordinary year for Jetway. First, all the models announced the lifetime warranty of the whole vehicle+used car, which not only demonstrated Jietu’s confidence in product quality, but also greatly enhanced consumers’ confidence in car purchase. Then, officially listed, the new car launched a total of three models, with a price range of 179,900 ~ 209,900 yuan, which once again attracted widespread attention from the market. This series of actions will undoubtedly make Jietu more dazzling in the highly competitive automobile market.

Of course, the growth of Jietu is not always smooth. In the face of various voices on the Internet, including events such as being questioned about "edge-cutting" marketing, Jetway has adopted a positive attitude. This spirit of courage to face challenges and continuous self-improvement is also an important reason for the sustainable development of Jietu.

The data is the most powerful proof. According to statistics, the overall sales volume of Chery Group continues to climb, among which Jietu, as an important part, has contributed a lot. Especially in the SUV market, Jietu’s performance is particularly eye-catching. Behind this is Jietu’s strict control over product quality, keen insight into market demand and deep understanding of consumer demand.

With the constant changes in the automobile market and the increasing diversification of consumer demand, how should Jietu go in the future? In my opinion, Jietu needs to continue to adhere to the brand concept of "Travel+"and constantly introduce new products that meet the market demand. At the same time, it is also the key to strengthen brand building and enhance brand awareness and reputation. In addition, in the face of the wave of new energy vehicles, Jietu needs to increase investment in new energy fields to seize market opportunities.

Having said that, do you have a more comprehensive understanding of Jietu? What do you think of Jetway’s future development prospects? Continue to deepen the SUV market, or expand new market segments? Or increase investment in the field of new energy? Welcome to leave your comments and opinions in the comments section. If you also like the brand Jetway, please like it, pay attention to it and forward it, so that more people can know about this dynamic and potential car brand!

The above is my opinion on "Which brand does Jetway belong to?" Detailed answers and in-depth analysis of this topic. I hope this article will give you a deeper understanding of Jietu, and I look forward to your valuable comments and opinions in the comments section. See you next time!
