“Good cars can not do without crying,” while “Driving peak” in the domestic manufacturers led stunt camp had just arrived, but we are not hard to see the good intentions cherished by manufacturers. Roewe 750 prototype from the British Rover 75, BMW tuning the chassis and engine performance, highlighting the limits of Roewe 750 made a good grounding, but as a newcomer to the domestic market, in order to get more consumer recognition, not through the true live display of guns, shouting alone is clearly not enough weight.

Therefore, the auto show in Chengdu, held during the peak driving control activities, Roewe Roewe 750 vehicle owners to drive their own and the limits of ability in the end stronger, and become the event of Aspect. Perhaps no show come flying adventure, but it reflects the overall performance of vehicles and brands convey aspirations, but also difficult for ordinary domestic prices and the brand. Therefore, as a domestic brand’s first large-scale activities in carrying out this brand, Roewe’s self-confidence and spirit of exploration is commendable.

Recently, the independent brand car market Meng Yue Guayue high-class style. Starting directly from the high end of the autonomous vehicle SAIC Roewe’s UK wind one night, robbed full of thunder; those in previous years, accumulated a certain amount of technical and financial strength of the independent auto companies can not help but start impetuous, not only Son of the East, Geely Vision, BYD F6 old Huige forces in the market, but also large numbers of “hired guns”, even in the commercial vehicle industry, power and prestige for many years Jianghuai, the Great Wall, JMC, also have been offering high-class cars.

What is the reason for its own brand cars collective “climb”? Senior automotive brands fate of the future?


Get rid of the low-end “caps”

The industry believes that its own brand cars began as a price advantage by occupying market, hovering in the low-end market for nearly 10 years, giving the impression that the own-brand low-end vehicles can only be made to take off the “hat”, establish its own brand image, enhance brand value and competitiveness, and take the high-class line is the best approach. BYD Auto-related charge of people believe that their own brands to compete with the joint venture brand vehicles, and win the market, technology and brand a less.

JAC car marketing company deputy general manager Zhang Xianhua told reporters, according to their consumer and market research, they think to do cars, “top-down” to push the car easier to establish a brand image, introduction of high-class cars just want to grab a “strategic high ground,” JAC will introduce next year, C-, A-Class sedans.

“In the current market status, our starting point is to high, it was possible to occupy more market share.” SAIC Roewe a person in charge, said in an interview.


Small-displacement does not make money

In the automobile market to compete brutal market environment, the small displacement of the profit margin is almost near zero. Small cars, although the best-selling economy cars, but not make much money. Therefore, once by trying to conquer the small displacement of its own brand, how to break the bottleneck of the development, seeking more living space is that many independent brands are wrestling with issues.

In technology and brand under the conditions of the relatively more mature and take the profits of relatively rich in high-end line of their own brands of course one of the options.


Improving the market Layout

For own brand automobile enterprises, and take the road of high-end market, in addition to establish a brand image and to seek survival and development of space, the more important is that in order to broaden product lines, improve the market layout, enhance the competitiveness of enterprises, and joint-venture car “to fight . ” For JAC, Changfeng, Great Wall and other commercial enterprises, it is an entirely new experience, they work in the field of commercial vehicles can be said to be “reached a pinnacle,” but a single product line, the enterprise has been constrained by leaps and bounds, it is necessary into the mainstream circle, must take an integrated development.

At the same time, from commercial production to car development, and manufacturing and is a high-class cars manufacturers require an enterprise to have enough courage and lung power, is also a test on their own level of technology and R & D strength of a chance.

Experts: balanced development is the right way

Senior analyst Jia Xinguang told reporters, while mid-size car competition, but the brand of choice of Chinese consumers tend to be more broad, as long as the appearance atmosphere, cost-effective, a considerable number of people do not mind choosing their own brands. For example SAIC Roewe Roewe 750 launched by virtue of superior appearance and cost-effective breakthrough in one fell swoop in six months sales of 15,000.

Present JAC, the Great Wall, Changfeng and other commercial vehicle, or SUV with a two to three decades experience in automotive manufacturing companies have started production of cars, they possess a large-scale production equipment for car industry conditions and management experience in the field of the timing of entering the car more mature . However, whether it is for Chery, Geely and other enterprises, or new entrants into the sedan market, JAC, the Great Wall, Changfeng and other commercial enterprises, must be borne in mind that we must take into account the development of independent brands that take the high road should also keep a good positions in low-end products, as well as their commercial vehicle market.
