On April 9, NIO issued an "Explanation on Recent Production and Delivery", NIO said that since March, due to the epidemic, the company's supply chain partners in Jilin, Shanghai, Jiangsu and other places have stopped production and have not yet recovered. Affected by this, WEILAI's vehicle production has been suspended. Due to the above reasons, many users' vehicles will be delayed in the near future.
The automotive industry chain is long and complex, even if WEILAI Automobile is produced in Hefei City, Anhui Province, and the local area has not carried out large-scale sealing and control, but because many upstream supply chain enterprises in Jilin, Shanghai and other places, can not guarantee normal supply, Weilai's vehicle production has also been affected.
Suspending vehicle production is a helpless move. Weilai said that many users' vehicles will be delayed in the near future. "Please also understand. The company will work with supply chain partners to ensure that production resumes as soon as possible and delivers vehicles to everyone as soon as possible under the premise of meeting the requirements of epidemic prevention. ”
For the suspension of production, Weilai also under a lot of pressure, in March, Weilai delivered 9985 vehicles, an increase of 37.6% year-on-year, an increase of 62.9% month-on-month, although the year-on-year, month-on-month growth, but compared with the ideal, Xiaopeng Automobile, the gap has increased.
On April 7, the official website of the State Administration for Market Regulation showed that Tesla filed a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulation.
As of April 7, 2022, the recall will recall a total of 127785 imported and domestically produced Model 3 electric vehicles with production dates from January 11, 2019 to January 25, 2022 (including 34,207 imported Model 3 vehicles and 93,578 domestic Model 3 vehicles). A few days ago, Ms. Zhang, who defended her rights on the roof of Tesla's car, also spoke out on her personal Weibo:
On April 7, Tesla suddenly announced a recall of nearly 130,000 identical models, the reason for the recall was the failure of the vehicle inverter. Under the defect investigation initiated by the General Administration, affected by the investigation, the passive recall was carried out.
First, the inverter is a very important core component. Without an inverter, Tesla's electric car can not operate at all, just like our human heart, even the quality of core components can not be guaranteed, who can guarantee that tomorrow there will be no other problems?
Second, although it is a recall, Tesla still intends to recall it in the form of an OTA in order to save costs. Inverter is a hardware failure, Ota is a software upgrade, if you can not replace the inverter in question, then the software upgrade is at most a symptom is not a cure, can not eliminate the problem!
Third, look at, last year, also due to the inverter recall, other brands all recalled the problematic models, free replacement of the improved inverter, rather than tesla has the same treatment, first OTA software, can not return to the factory to replace the hardware. Why aren't the same questions treated the same way?
A foreign brand vehicle that often has accidents responds to us Chinese consumers with this attitude, this quality, our regulatory authority @ city speaks new language Is it too tolerant of Tesla?
