It is understood that since January this year, Huawei's Smart Select Cyrus SF5 has been basically in a state of suspension of production and suspension. In early March, AITO M5 opened the first batch delivery in more than 100 user centers in 36 cities.
According to Cyrus, in terms of sales, AITO integrates the channel advantages of both Cyrus and Huawei. Up to now, more than 500 experience centers and 150 user centers in aito sales channels have been laid. This year, a total of 1,000 experience centers and about 300 user centers will be settled.
In terms of production capacity, Xilis is also ready. AITO Chongqing Liangjiang Smart Factory already has an annual production capacity of 100,000 vehicles, and has completed the initial preparatory work for the M5. In addition, a new second plant built in accordance with the standards of the intelligent digital flexible vehicle plant has also been basically completed.
At the beginning of January this year, Yu Chengdong set a goal for AITO cars to reach 300,000 vehicles in 2022; but due to the shortage of chips, Yu Chengdong said in response to a media interview on April 18 that "it is impossible to achieve 300,000 vehicles, and it is a miracle to complete 100,000-200,000 vehicles in the first year." Huawei has just entered the automotive field, unfamiliar with and does not know the supply of the industry, it is not clear that the lack of cores in the entire industry is so serious, a chip of 10 yuan to 20 yuan is fried to 2500 yuan, and a car to use 9 such chips, too expensive, can not accept this high price of speculation, rather sell less."
