summary
In the increasingly fierce competition environment of the new energy vehicle market, "volume" has become a reality that every auto brand has to face. However, the competition of new energy vehicles should not be limited to price alone. More attention should be paid to product category innovation, quality improvement and optimization of price-to-quality ratio. Product research and development should not be limited by fixed routines, on the contrary, user needs should be the driving force behind the birth of products. In the context of technological innovation in the new energy era, car companies have the ability to redefine their products. The emergence of Leapmotor C16 not only provides consumers with a new choice in the price range of 200,000 yuan, but also sets a new value benchmark for the entire industry.
