How many volumes are there in the domestic auto market? Look at a set of data.
From January 2023 to June 2024, China will have 59 replacement models, ranking first in the world, with 579 new models in China and 946 facelifted models, on average, every 9 hours in China to achieve facelifts, new models every 10 hours, and new models every 15 hours. So many people feel that it seems that there are new car releases every day, and the media attend the press conference every day, and many automotive media say that they can't participate in the press conference at all. On September 10th, five car companies held a press conference at the same time to release new cars.
It is precisely because there are too many models in the domestic car market that many models are submerged in the sea of cars because of their poor marketing and publicity capabilities, or for other reasons. Among them, there are some models with strong product power, and today I will introduce to you 2 models, which are seriously underestimated within 200,000 yuan.
The first car: ARCFOX Alfa S sold 63 units in August
In fact, the models under the Extreme Fox are more or less underestimated, but this model is the most obvious. The car sold only 63 units last month, which I think is seriously out of line with its product power.
If you want me to talk about its shortcomings, I will definitely be able to point it out, for example, its car machine system has a gap with the current domestic first echelon, such as Huawei's Hongmeng, Ideal Weilai and Lynk & Co's FLYME, etc. Its charging port is in the front, not in the rear. For the rest, I'm really having a hard time finding any obvious bruises about it. The battery life is solid, the safety is excellent, the stiffness of 60,000 Nm is second to none in this class, and the space performance is also good, therefore, whether it is from the endurance, power, configuration level, or from the design, quality, space level, there are almost no shortcomings, but unfortunately, its sales are indeed not in line with expectations. In addition to the marketing issues, I think a slight reduction in price reduction will help increase sales.
The second car: Buick E5 sold 758 units in August
It is also a seriously underestimated model, many people mention the joint venture new energy, the first reaction is miscellaneous, can not buy, it is better to buy domestic, I think you are a little stunned. In the past, all cars were defined by country, but now they are directly defined by joint ventures and domestic production.
Buick E5 is a miscellaneous tram, so let me ask you where it behaves very crotch-pulling? Is the safety not up to par, is the battery life false standard serious, or is the price too high? These three points are not touched by these three cars.
Buick E5 is a general Autoneng platform to build, so far there is no spontaneous combustion case, at least there is no publicly reported spontaneous combustion case, this point will beat a lot of domestic new energy vehicles, its pure electric range from 515 kilometers to 620 kilometers, gentle driving in urban areas can basically do one to one, high-speed endurance is indeed discounted, but this is the current new energy vehicle common disease, there is nothing to say. In addition, its manufacturer's guide price is 169,900-213,900, and there are discounts at the store, is this price really expensive for a medium and large pure electric SUV?
Of course, it must have shortcomings, the car machine system is not as easy to use as the car of the new domestic forces, the charging port is in front, there is no camping mode, and it cannot be discharged, but the flaws are not concealed, the price of this car is really not expensive, and it performs well in the safety and endurance of the core power battery. Combined with its selling price, it is indeed a car worth considering.
Buying a car, I think don't believe anything, the joint venture is garbage, don't buy the XX brand and other similar remarks, each model has its own advantages and disadvantages, you say that domestic new energy vehicles are much stronger than joint venture brands, but don't you also have products that lag behind? Isn't there also a brand with a high spontaneous combustion rate and the problem has not been solved? It is more reliable to go for test drives and see the feedback of real car owners more than to listen to the nonsense of these emotional bloggers.
