Chinese cars have finally become BYD
With sales of more than 280,000 units in September and a cumulative total of more than 2.07 million units for the year, BYD, as the sales champion in the Chinese auto market, did not have an absolute advantage in competing with car companies such as Geely, Great Wall and Chery for a long time.
Geely launched the mid-to-high-end brand Lynk & Co, Great Wall launched the Wei brand, while Chery has long occupied the first position in China's automobile exports, but BYD is fiddling with new energy vehicles that were not optimistic about the market at that time.
BYD's past, in addition to the "dual-mode" plug-in hybrid car and the F3 very similar to the Toyota Corolla, the most impressive thing is the spontaneous combustion incident of new energy vehicles.
With the help of the two new energy vehicle markets of plug-in hybrid and pure electric, BYD, which has the advantage of "three electrics", has surpassed FAW-Volkswagen at a crazy growth rate, and achieved the historical transcendence of its own brand and new energy vehicles.
Plug-in hybrid technology used to be one of the development directions of new energy vehicles for multinational car companies, and now it has given way to pure electric technology, and it is difficult for us to find an excellent joint venture plug-in hybrid model in the market.
Multinational car companies have officially entered the pure electric vehicle market, Toyota, Volkswagen and GM Nissan and other leading multinational car companies have launched new pure electric vehicle products, while independent traditional car companies have begun to develop synchronously in the two technical routes of hybrid and pure electric.
Unlike multinational car companies that launch new product series and models for new energy vehicle products, such as Volkswagen's ID, GM's Ruige, etc., independent brands are more likely to launch new brands to develop pure electric vehicles, while existing brands and models have begun to hybridize, such as Geely's Extreme Krypton, GAC's Aion and so on.
Looking back at the development route of BYD's new energy vehicles, the development of the dynasty series DM-i/p and EV dual power creates scale effects, while the newly launched marine network series, marine life series are EV pure electric products, and the warship series is DM-i plug-in hybrid products.
BYD's growing scale of new energy vehicles, plug-in hybrid and pure electric vehicles are developing together, each accounting for half of sales.
Major independent traditional car companies began to realize that they no longer learned the route of pure electrification of multinational car companies, but imitated BYD to achieve dual-power integrated development.
Chinese automobiles are becoming BYD's appearance, not only electrification, but also launching different electrified car products in response to the needs of more users.
When Toyota blocked the globalization of gasoline-electric hybrid technology, plug-in hybrid vehicles were called transitional products, because the 50-kilometer pure electric range at that time symbolized that they were only the product of policy, not market demand.
BYD's biggest credit, in addition to the scale of pure electric vehicles, is to increase the pure electric cruising range of plug-in hybrid vehicles from 50 kilometers to 200 kilometers, so that plug-in hybrid vehicles can truly become dual-power, dual-scene models in the user's car life.
If car companies such as Geely, Great Wall and Chery used to just make a small fuss around hybrid vehicles and give their hopes to pure electric vehicles, now they are fully hybridized, and plug-in hybrid.
From Tesla to Wei Xiaoli, the pure electric vehicle market has an excessive number of participants, and this market has become an unfamiliar smart car market for traditional car companies.
In addition to electric intelligent vehicles, the plug-in hybrid vehicle market is a market where independent car companies have greater advantages, which can not only achieve the rapid development of new energy vehicles, but also realize the excellent opportunity for overtaking on curves.
The advantage of plug-in hybrid vehicles is not in the intelligent function, but in the integration of the dual advantages of traditional fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles to meet the needs of users in more scenarios, which is both green and environmentally friendly and has no range anxiety, and can also win more development time for pure electric vehicles and cultivate users' electric vehicle habits.
When Chinese cars become what BYD wants to become, the dream of new energy vehicles is accelerating to realize, no longer just a slogan and dream, but a realistic and simple solution.
BYD has become the first car company to stop producing pure fuel vehicles, and we hope that the second and third will accelerate, and hope that they will be one independent car company after another, rather than Toyota, the world's largest hybrid car company.
If the purchase of fuel vehicles has concerns about fuel consumption and license plates, while pure electric vehicles have range anxiety, what other matters do you need to worry about plug-in hybrid vehicles?
