Whenever the Spring Festival comes, many people will choose to buy a car, just to make the Spring Festival more enjoyable, but not everyone can get what they want.
Recently, according to Ms. X in Anhui (at my request, using a pseudonym) to the car have wisdom to reflect, she purchased a Sihao new energy product 2022 version of Sihao E10X Flower Fairy Full of Stars model on January 20, that is, the eighteenth day of the month of La, and the price after landing was 72900 yuan. However, just as Ms. X was happily looking forward to driving to relatives for the New Year, the new car actually had problems one after another.
According to Ms. X, on February 3, the third day of the Chinese New Year, the fully charged new car suddenly stopped during the highway driving, showing that the power battery power was too low, Ms. X was very puzzled, but because she did not know much about pure electric cars, it was reflected to the car purchase 4S shop, the next day was pulled back to charge, Ms. X drove home. Unexpectedly, less than a week later, on February 9, the new car actually had the same failure on the highway again, this time, Ms. X could not calm down, and realized that the product had already had quality problems.
"I am a little afraid, the new car has only driven less than 300 kilometers, has twice had problems on the highway, and almost rear-ended, although the 4S shop maintenance conclusion is that the power battery is seriously damaged, but refuse to return and replace, saying that it can only be repaired, but the power battery problem even after maintenance will have problems, which makes me more worried." Ms. X still had a lingering feeling when she mentioned it, "The 4S shop negotiated to change a new battery pack, but I have a psychological shadow now, and I just want to return the car quickly." ”
As of press time, the two sides have not yet reached a unified agreement.
According to public information, the Sihao brand was created on April 24, 2018, and was originally a brand of Jianghuai Volkswagen Automobile Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Co., Ltd. and Volkswagen Group (China). However, in 2020, after Volkswagen increased its capital to 75% and renamed Jacque Volkswagen to Volkswagen (Anhui) Co., Ltd., the Sihao brand was divided into the product lineup of Jacque Automobile Group, and Sihao E10X is its most important product at present.
Although JAC Automobile has high expectations for the Sihao E10X, the consumer market does not seem to buy it.
On the one hand, although the Sihao brand now belongs to Jianghuai Automobile, it has always been the main Volkswagen label, and constantly emphasizes that Sihao products are combined with the advantages of the two giants of Jianghuai Automobile and Volkswagen, and have been further improved in terms of R & D design, manufacturing and quality control system standards. Because of this, although the Sihao E10X is a mini car, the price is close to that of ordinary compact SUV products. Taking the Sihao E10X Flower Fairy model, which was launched on November 19, 2021, as an example, the comprehensive subsidy price of its three models reached 69,900 yuan, 72,900 yuan and 76,900 yuan respectively.
Such a high price naturally attracts many consumers to complain. "The public does not want the brand, Si Hao is still licking his face and pasting it up, and really in this way can make consumers accept the high price, Jianghuai Automobile is not crazy about money."
Indeed, at present, the development of new energy products of China's own brands is very rapid, the technology is becoming more and more mature, and the price is also getting lower and lower, such as Si Hao, who is still fantasizing about relying on mass technology, which is really not necessarily very attractive. It can be said that Si Hao overestimated himself from the beginning.
On the other hand, although Sihao has always emphasized the blessing of mass technology, its product quality has been constantly questioned. According to a complaint platform, since the listing of sihao E10X, it has been complained by many car owners about the serious failure of the power battery, mainly including "can not start after charging", "the mileage is not accurate", "the false standard is serious" and other issues. Some car owners complained that the new car suddenly failed to recover kinetic energy, and the safety hazard was extremely great. And the endurance is serious, and the manufacturer's advertised 302 km endurance gap is far away! In addition, there are complaints from the owner of the car: the new car has only been open for more than a month, the resistance in the battery pack has burned out, it is impossible to hang up the gear, and the 4S shop maintenance has not been solved for 9 days. It is worth noting that the complaints about Sihao's services have also been "besieged" by many car owners, the main problems include "service commitments are not fulfilled", "prices are not transparent" and so on.
In this regard, Jianghuai Automobile once gave a response, saying, "The supplier of Sihao New Energy is mainly Guoxuan Hi-Tech, and the problem of power batteries needs to be further solved." But for such a statement, some people in the industry do not agree, "battery failure is not necessarily a problem for power battery manufacturers, sometimes battery manufacturers only provide batteries, and the main engine factory itself solves the battery thermal management system and other battery components." ”
If this is the case, Jianghuai Automobile will inevitably have the suspicion of "throwing the pot". But in any case, the market reputation of JacHuai Automobile and Sihao brands has undoubtedly fallen to the lowest point.
But even so, Jianghuai Automobile is still full of confidence in Sihao New Energy. Wang Guangyu, deputy general manager of Sihao New Energy Passenger Vehicle, has publicly stated, "Sihao New Energy will launch some new layouts in the '14th Five-Year Plan' and a longer period of time in the future. At present, it is basically determined to achieve an annual sales target of 200,000 units by 2025 and a cumulative sales target of 500,000 units during the '14th Five-Year Plan' period, and promote various sales and service work in accordance with this goal. ”
It sounds very targeted, but what is surprising is that for how to increase the sales of Sihao products, as well as the corresponding product planning and other issues, Jianghuai Automobile is silent, and it is difficult to convince people where such a goal comes from.
In any case, Jianghuai Automobile has stepped into the competitive track of electric vehicles with Sihao New Energy, what measures will the Sihao brand take to reverse the market? Cars with wisdom will continue to pay attention. As for the insistence of Ms. Anhui X to return the car, the car has wisdom and will continue to follow.
