In his speech, Cumo revealed his judgment on the situation of the commercial vehicle tire market in 2024.
He believes that in 2023, the market situation in this field is very bad and has reached the bottom.
Comparatively speaking, the market has not rebounded significantly this year, but the performance has remained positive.
It is expected that by 2025, the situation will improve significantly and usher in the light of day.
In terms of corporate sustainability strategy, Cumo also has its own opinions.
He said that pure e-commerce vehicles are more suitable for short-distance logistics, bus fleets, etc.
Because of its predictable routes and short distances, it returns to base on time every day.
But when it comes to long-distance travel, the cost and viability of electric vehicles become complicated.
At present, hydrogen energy vehicles may solve this problem, and it is worth laying out in advance.
