I don't know if it is the reason for the end of the year, the hot search is not short of people, and everyone is still crowded on.
On the 18th, Li Bin, founder of the domestic new energy vehicle brand Weilai, said amazingly on NIO Day:
"I don't understand at all, why are there still people buying gas trucks now?" What good is the gas truck except that it can smell a little gasoline? ”
The video then dominates on various websites.
This public diss fuel vehicle speech also made the second car ET5 released by Weilai steal the limelight.
The contest between fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles is not a secret, everyone knows that new energy vehicles are the future, but it is undeniable that the current new energy vehicles have not come up with satisfactory solutions in terms of battery safety and mileage.
For example, during the National Day, the owner of a new energy vehicle is embarrassed to queue up for 4 hours in the high-speed service area to charge for 1 hour, even if you have everything as good, the result is still who uses who is painful.
Li Bin dissed the fuel car, why?
Although Li Bin, who came from the auto media, has always been called the Chinese version of Musk, and Weilai itself seems to be so benchmarked, in fact, Li Bin himself is still relatively low-key.
As soon as this remark came out, it was different from its previous style.
Is it life that must be full of joy?
At the same time, Weilai's second car ET5 released, according to the plan, ET5 subsidies before the price of 328,000 yuan, the use of battery rental scheme model subsidies before the price of 258,000 yuan.
Where does this point?
In the field of new energy vehicles, Tesla's domestic Model 3 standard version model is priced at about 255,700 yuan, and the high-performance version is priced at 339,900 yuan;
In the field of fuel vehicles, the BMW 3 Series starts at 293,900 yuan.
Weilai, which has always been high-end, is self-evident.
According to the data, in the first 11 months of this year, NIO delivered a total of 80,900 new cars, an increase of 120.4% year-on-year. Up to now, NIO has delivered a total of 156,600 new vehicles.
What about Tesla?
As of November, Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory has delivered more than 400,000 units in 2021, reaching 413,283 units, an increase of 242% year-on-year.
Although WEILAI's delivery data looks a lot better, it still has not solved the reality of loss.
According to its financial report for the third quarter of 2021, WEILAI's total revenue in the third quarter was 9.805 billion yuan, an increase of 116.6% year-on-year; the net loss in the third quarter was 835 million yuan, narrowing by 20.2% compared with the same period last year and expanding by 42.3% compared with the previous quarter.
Li Bin has previously defined the positioning of Weilai:
Weilai's competitors are not Tesla, nor Xiaopeng and Ideal, but represent new energy vehicles to compete with traditional fuel vehicles.
But obviously, Weilai does not have this strength at present, and traditional fuel vehicles still have strong strength before new energy vehicles solve their core problems.
In essence, it is not the fuel car that is dissed this time, but the majority of owners who choose fuel vehicles.
Presumably, this is the main reason why Li Bin was dissed.
