This question was actually asked a few days ago in the background of [Snail Car Chronicle]. But these days have been busy recording the program and have no time to respond, today a brief chat. In fact, at Huawei's press conference in Shenzhen on December 23, I went to the scene to attend. As a hardcore digital fan, the first half was boiling with blood, especially Huawei's new small folding mobile phone P50 Pocket is indeed very toxic. But in the second half, I felt a little embarrassed. Yu Chengdong, Dong Ge, although very passionate, very high-profile for the M5 platform, but the art industry still has a specialty, anyway, I listened to the whole, really did not get any excitement, and indeed did not see how this car has the quality of a million-level luxury car.
Would I recommend the Q&I M5? Probably not. Even if it is now draped in the vest of AITO and hung up the name of Huawei, Xilis is still Xilis, Dongfeng Xiaokang or Dongfeng Xiaokang, the essence has not changed, the change is the price, it has become expensive.
Of course, you will say that there is Huawei's empowerment and technical support. But to be honest, as a 3C digital enterprise, in addition to the car machine system and electronic intelligence, I really can't think of anything that can really help to build a car, to ask the M5 this car on-site introduction as an example, not to mention the mechanical part, is the electronic part, involving vehicle control some of the electronic core parts are still provided by bosch and other professional car suppliers.
Dongge said proudly on the spot that Huawei has a very powerful designer. I was a little dumbfounded, Huawei's designers in the mobile phone industry, may be very strong, but the design level of the mobile phone industry, everyone understands, even a camera head position arrangement can be used as a hype highlight, even P50 Pocket limited edition back shell on the back of the simple texture, but also need to go to France to ask couture designers to help, now let them participate in the design of the car? Can it really help? I'm putting a question mark anyway.
From the scene of "Amway" and some of the highlights of the M5 car, from the insider's point of view, basically not enough, for example, more than a thousand kilometers of theory full of electricity and full fuel endurance, BYD Qin PLUS in the early 100,000 can do it, intelligent central control large screen, but also almost become the standard of this year's domestic new car, not to mention a buy more than 250,000 domestic brand cars, actually put the front double wishbone, rear independent suspension are also used as the core highlights to repeatedly publicize, to tell the truth, I really can't see what is the confidence and reason for this car to sell for 280,000-320,000? On the interpolation, is the Song PLUS in the early 200,000s not fragrant? On new energy vehicles, electric vehicles, Tesla Model Y is not good? Not to mention a large number of traditional classic SUVs, such as Honda CRV, Toyota RAV4, and X-Trail are cheaper than it.
In fact, before Huawei announced that it will not build cars, focusing on cooperation with automobile manufacturers, I am particularly in favor of complementary resources, each showing its strengths, in order to create the real best products, is the most optimized and win-win.
So, why are you building cars again? As we all know, in fact, it is not that Huawei has a new breakthrough in the strength and technology of car manufacturing, but that the current competition for new energy vehicles is too fierce, and Dongfeng Xiaokang and Xilis can't hold it. Therefore, again, the art industry has a specialty, can create a good mobile phone and computer, really does not mean that you can build a good car. I sincerely hope that Huawei can return to its original intention. Even if you have to build a car, let's start with a simple entry, learn while practicing, don't open your mouth is PK million-level luxury car, okay?
