SAIC Volkswagen's monthly sales of "Santana" are only 1 units, and the media predicts that it is not far from being delisted
Speaking of Shanghai Volkswagen "Santana", it has gone through 50 years since it entered the country in 1983, during which the domestic automobile market has changed a lot, some have become giants, and some "grave grass" has been very high. Now when I see this car, I will still think of the most classic advertising slogan of the year, that is, with Santana, I am not afraid to go all over the world, I believe that many post-70s and post-60s will definitely make you feel "Ye Hui Qing" when they hear this advertising slogan. But now, the once invincible family car "Santana" is now facing delisting! It's not official news, but judging from the data just given, there is really no need to exist!
We can see from Figure 1 that "Santana" sold only one unit in November, and looking at the entire domestic automobile market, only "Santana" has completed this feat! And it took three months from September to November, you must know that in the first quarter of this year, the monthly sales of this Santana can reach about 6,000 units. Therefore, it can be judged that the entire decline in sales is irreversible. According to this sales volume, Xiaobian also asked dealers. Although it has not received a positive response, it can be determined that the official has stopped promoting this car, and it is reported that the production line of this car has begun to be discontinued, and among the models currently on sale, there is one less to sell!
In addition to subjective reasons, objective reasons are also destined to make the future of this car unclear! Not to mention the joint venture brand of the same level, take our own brand as an example, almost a car can easily crush Santana! Even if this car has completed a small adjustment in the later stage, the appearance of the upgrade is obvious, but the interior is still old-fashioned, not only the sense of science and technology and this car for no reason, including the entire quality can not be comparable with the same level of products.
And the old-fashioned configuration can't arouse the interest of the friends at all. It is reported that this car has a total of four configuration models, and the beggar version is a 14-inch steel wheel with drum brakes. There is no central control screen and LCD instrument panel inside, and Bluetooth has become a luxury. The flagship version is equipped with rear parking radar, single sunroof, aluminum alloy wheels, multi-function control steering wheel, front armrest, car phone/Bluetooth and other configurations, as for the technology configuration, it is basically not related to this car!
The powertrain, this car is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, model EA211, which has a maximum horsepower of 110 hp and a peak torque of 150 Nm. The engine adopts a lightweight design, which better achieves the effect of energy saving. Of course, there is another advantage, that is, in terms of reliability, it should be one of the best in Volkswagen. Even so, compared with its competitors, it is an indisputable fact that the technology is backward and the power is backward, and it is only a matter of time before it is added to the official guide price of 87,900 yuan-112,800 yuan, so its discontinuation is completely expected, and it is only a matter of time before it is delisted!
