Recently, the domestic car manufacturing enterprises have added another member: Li Yinan, the founder of Xiaoniu Electric, started a business again, officially announced the construction of cars, and released a new brand NIUTRON. And he also revealed that NIUTRON actually began research and development in 2018, and is currently in the commissioning and installation stage, which can be produced in small batches in March next year and officially launched in September.
NIUTRON
In fact, Li Yinan's car has long been no secret, and this matter has been passed down for almost 3 years. So why did Li Yinan choose to officially announce the car at this time and release a new brand?
The present is the best time to build a car
It can now be said that it is the best era for the development of new energy vehicles in China and even in the whole world, and it will continue for many years. As far as China is concerned, new energy vehicles have entered a stage of explosive growth. Basically, all professionals are very optimistic about the coverage of domestic new energy vehicles, and even many people believe that the sales of new energy will account for 60% in 2030. Such an opportunity can be said to be an excellent entrepreneurial opportunity.
Many car companies have successively laid out car manufacturing
Li Yinan came prepared
At the end of 21 years, the car was announced, and it will be able to produce small batches in March 2022 and officially go public in September. But in fact, Li Yinan began to build cars in 2018, which shows that he is prepared. And according to the information he revealed at the press conference, his team has approached 1,000 people. In addition, NIUTRON has settled in Changzhou and has the capacity to produce 180,000 cars per year. Even NIUTRON has completed its first round of financing of 100 million yuan. It can be seen from this that Li Yinan's car is definitely prepared. At this time, he announced the construction of the car because he felt that he was ready.
About Li Yinan himself
The first man
In fact, Li Yinan himself can be described as controversial. Li Yinan is almost tied to Huawei and genius. Li Yinan was admitted to the junior class of Huazhong University of Science and Technology at the age of 15, and at the age of 26, he has become a vice president of Huawei, and was even once considered to be ren Zhengfei's successor. But in the end, Li Yinan left Huawei and eventually founded Maverick Technology to produce smart electric vehicles, and Maverick Technology successfully went public in 2018. Li Yinan once said that this was his last venture. But in the face of the huge opportunity of new energy vehicles, Li Yinan is still moved. Although Li Yinan has embarked on the road of building a car, he still has a long way to go. The release of the brand is only the beginning, and the follow-up when the output is officially listed, it also involves operation, sales, stores, delivery, after-sales and other links, which link is not done well, the impact is not to be underestimated. In addition, car manufacturing requires a lot of funds, and whether there is enough financial support in the follow-up is even related to the success or failure of the new brand.
In addition, the automotive industry is becoming more and more competitive
In addition to the transformation of traditional car companies to new energy, the early new forces of car manufacturing and the new entry into the car industry in the past two years, such as Jidu, Xiaomi, didi, etc., cannot be underestimated.
For these reasons, NIUTRON must stand out from the competition in order to gain a place. This time, where will Li Yinan lead NIUTRON? Let's wait and see!
