people’s government of guangdong province

February 6, 2020

On coping with the pneumonia epidemic in novel coronavirus.

Some policies and measures to support enterprises to resume work and production.

  In order to thoroughly implement the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on resolutely winning the epidemic prevention and control war, fully implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and the provincial party committee on epidemic prevention and control, and fully support and promote the resumption of work and production of various enterprises affected by the epidemic, the following policy measures are put forward.

  First, governments at all levels should further increase efforts to ensure that enterprises resume work and production.

  (1) Strengthen epidemic prevention guidelines.

  The province issued a series of guidelines for prevention and control of pneumonia in response to novel coronavirus infection, and municipal governments at or above the local level should strengthen the main responsibility, assign special personnel to guide enterprises to complete the preparations for resumption of work and production, and ensure that enterprises can resume work and production under the premise of reaching the epidemic prevention and control standards.

  (2) Implementing the conditions for returning to work.

  Refine the guarantee scheme for returning to work and production, and help enterprises coordinate and solve the problems of employees returning to work, especially professional and technical personnel returning to work, as well as the purchase of prevention and control materials such as masks, protective clothing, disinfection supplies and thermometers.

  (3) Make overall plans for protection.

  Support enterprises to do a good job in employee health management. Encourage large enterprises to set up centralized isolation points. Encourage all kinds of development zones above the provincial level (high-tech zones, economic development zones and industrial parks) to set up centralized isolation points by the administrative Committee. For small and medium-sized enterprises that do not have the conditions to set up centralized isolation by themselves, the local government will make centralized arrangements.

  (4) Broaden recruitment channels.

  Strengthen labor assistance and cooperation inside and outside the province, implement the service Commissioner system for key enterprises, accurately check and publish information on employment demand of enterprises, and promote online supply and demand matching and remote recruitment.

  Second, further reduce the labor costs of enterprises.

  (5) Reducing the burden of social insurance.

  For enterprises affected by the epidemic that cannot pay the endowment insurance, medical insurance (including maternity insurance), unemployment insurance, work-related injury insurance and housing accumulation fund on time, it is allowed to postpone the payment within three months after the epidemic is lifted; Payment of social insurance fees is exempted from late fees, and related benefits are enjoyed normally, which does not affect the record of individual rights and interests of the insured. We will continue to implement the policy of reducing unemployment insurance rates and industrial injury insurance rates in stages.

  (six) the implementation of unemployment insurance return.

  We will continue to return unemployment insurance premiums to enterprises that do not lay off employees or reduce their staff, and return them according to 50% of the total amount of unemployment insurance premiums actually paid by enterprises and their employees in the previous year. Encourage enterprises affected by the epidemic to negotiate with employees to stabilize their jobs by adjusting their salaries and taking turns to rest.

  (seven) the payment of subsidies to help enterprises stabilize their posts.

  The wages and benefits paid by enterprises during the period when employees receive treatment due to epidemic situation or are quarantined under medical observation shall be subsidized to enterprises according to 50% of the basic endowment insurance payment wage base of the employees, and the required funds shall be charged in the special award fund for structural adjustment of industrial enterprises. Encourage enterprises to organize employees (including labor dispatchers working in enterprises) to participate in online on-the-job vocational skills training and give subsidies according to regulations; Platform enterprises (e-commerce enterprises) and new business enterprises shall refer to the implementation.

  Third, further reduce the operating burden of enterprises

  (8) Reduce the tax burden of enterprises.

  During the period of epidemic prevention and control, enterprises are allowed to postpone the declaration and payment of taxes. For enterprises that meet the conditions of deferred tax payment, the tax payment period shall be extended for no more than three months according to law. For enterprises that do have difficulties in paying taxes, property tax and urban land use tax shall be reasonably reduced or exempted according to law. For "fixed-term quota" households, adjust the quota reasonably or simplify the closure procedures. Timely implement policies such as inclusive tax reduction for small and micro enterprises.

  (9) Reduce the rent burden of enterprises.

  State-owned assets business premises are exempt from the first month’s rent for private leased enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic and cannot operate normally, and the rent for the second and third months is charged by half; Encourage other property owners to appropriately reduce or exempt rents according to the actual situation. Enterprises that have been rent-free for more than two months will be given tax relief according to the number of rent-free months.

  (ten) increase financial support for technological transformation.

  Enterprises within the prescribed time limit through technological transformation to expand epidemic prevention and control urgently need to focus on allocating material production capacity or converting the above materials, and increase incentives for their qualified equipment purchases.

  (eleven) give play to the key role of state-owned enterprises.

  Large and medium-sized state-owned enterprises and leading enterprises in the industry have increased their support for small and medium-sized enterprises in the industrial chain in terms of payment recovery, raw material supply and project contracting, so as to promote the stable operation of the industrial chain. For small and medium-sized enterprises that have signed contracts with state-owned enterprises, if they are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations on time due to the epidemic, the contract performance period may be appropriately extended. State-owned enterprises should pay the relevant funds of small and medium-sized enterprises and private enterprises in full and on time in accordance with the contract, and shall not form new overdue arrears.

  Fourth, further increase financial support

  (12) Strengthen financial relief.

  Banking financial institutions are encouraged to extend loan repayment, extend loan renewal, reduce interest rates and reduce or exempt interest for enterprises greatly affected by the epidemic. The provincial SME financing service platform opened the SME epidemic response financial service area and the "green service channel", and coordinated the provincial special funds to support small and medium-sized enterprises, relying on the platform to provide discount and risk compensation services for loan enterprises. For enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic, it is not allowed to blindly lend, cut off loans or press loans. Sort out and determine the list of key enterprises for epidemic prevention in the province, and make full use of the national special refinancing policy.

  (thirteen) increase financial support.

  The provincial finance provides financial support for related enterprises to expand the production of key urgently needed equipment such as mask machines, protective clothing stickers, negative pressure ambulances and key and scarce parts. For the newly-increased loans in 2020 of key enterprises for epidemic prevention and control identified by the state and the province and other enterprises for health and epidemic prevention, pharmaceutical products and medical equipment that have played an outstanding role in supporting epidemic prevention and control (which are examined and confirmed by the provincial industrial and information departments in conjunction with the financial departments), the provincial finance will give a discount at 50% of the refinancing rate of the People’s Bank of China. Encourage governments at all levels to give appropriate subsidies to livestock and poultry aquaculture enterprises and leisure agricultural enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic. Encourage city and county finance to give key support such as loan discount and accounts receivable financing to small and medium-sized enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic, and the provincial finance will give appropriate subsidies. The guarantee loan for individual entrepreneurs or small and micro enterprises can be extended for one year as appropriate, and they will continue to enjoy financial discount support.

  (fourteen) to support enterprises to guarantee financing and lease financing.

  Cancel the counter-guarantee requirements of government financing guarantee institutions and re-guarantee institutions at all levels in the province, and the provincial financing re-guarantee companies will waive the guarantee fee for the financing guarantee business included in the support scope of the national financing guarantee fund, and the new financing guarantee rate of government financing guarantee companies at all levels for enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic will not exceed 1%. Financial leasing companies should adjust the repayment period and repayment methods of enterprises that are greatly affected by the epidemic, reduce or exempt the rental interest for no more than 6 months as appropriate, and waive the penalty interest on rent.

  (fifteen) optimize the enterprise microfinance service.

  With the approval of microfinance companies with excellent regulatory indicators, the financing leverage ratio can be relaxed to 5 times of net assets, and the upper limit of single-family loan balance can be raised to no more than 5% of the registered capital and no more than 10 million yuan. Encourage enterprises and individuals affected by the epidemic to reduce loan interest rates, postpone or extend loans for 1-3 months, exempt from penalty interest for 1-3 months, and increase credit loans and medium-and long-term loans.

  (sixteen) optimize the enterprise credit management.

  Enterprises that temporarily lose their sources of income due to the epidemic can submit their credit records according to the adjusted repayment arrangements. Local CCPIT should establish a "green channel" and issue factual certificates related to force majeure to foreign trade enterprises directly affected by the epidemic according to actual conditions.

  V further optimizing government services

  (seventeen) to strengthen the protection of project construction elements.

  For projects under construction and new construction such as epidemic prevention and control, energy supply, transportation and logistics, medical resources and ecological environment, priority should be given to ensuring resource indicators such as land use and forest use; For new non-profit medical places, the required construction land index shall be solved by the province as a whole; Create conditions to ensure the timely supply of steel, concrete, sand and other building materials necessary for project construction.

  (eighteen) improve the examination and approval work "through train" system.

  Establish a green channel for project approval, simplify the approval process and compress the approval time limit. Take network, video and other technical means to carry out project evaluation and review, and accelerate the preliminary work of the project. Relying on the online approval and supervision platform of investment projects in the province, the online processing of project approval without meeting is fully implemented.

  (nineteen) the establishment of epidemic prevention and control materials overseas procurement fast track.

  We will improve the rapid coordination mechanism for overseas procurement of epidemic prevention and control materials, set up a "green channel" for rapid customs clearance of imported prevention and control materials, and implement a convenient customs clearance policy for prevention and control materials that can provide certificates from competent authorities and involve special items without health and quarantine approval. Work modes such as "two-step declaration", "declare in advance" and "guaranteed release" shall be implemented for epidemic prevention and control treatment materials to ensure "zero delay" in customs clearance.

  (twenty) to strengthen the support of information services related to enterprises.

  Relying on the platform of "Guangdong Business Connect", timely release the policies and measures for benefiting enterprises during the epidemic prevention and control period, build a platform for enterprises to respond to their demands, promote the establishment of appeal response mechanisms in various places, and timely solve the outstanding problems faced by enterprises in the production and operation process.

  The implementation period of this policy is tentatively set as three months from the date of promulgation (if the implementation period of policies and measures has been clearly defined, it shall be implemented within the prescribed time limit). The central government issued relevant support policies, and our province followed them. Municipal governments at or above the local level and relevant provincial departments may formulate detailed implementation rules according to the actual situation, and increase efforts to help enterprises.

Gree pursues beauty, with a difference of 100 billion in half a year.

  In terms of scale, Gree Electric lags behind Midea Group in air conditioning, small household appliances and diversified businesses, with a total revenue difference of 98 billion yuan in the first half of 2023. However, judging from many data, Gree still has its own advantages, such as abundant cash on the account and high gross profit margin of air-conditioning business.

  Revenue reached a new high in the first half of the year, and net profit did not return to a high point.

  If one sentence is used to describe the semi-annual report of 2023 released by Gree Electric on the last day of August, it is that "all aspects are recovering, but many data are hidden".

  Let’s look at the overall revenue and net profit performance-99.79 billion yuan and 12.35 billion yuan in the first half of the year, respectively. The former hit a record high, but the year-on-year growth rate was small, only 4.16%, while the latter maintained a growth rate of 14%, but it still did not reach the level of 2018 and 2019.

  Such growth has not kept pace with the market.

  Under the influence of El Ni? o phenomenon, there was a rare high temperature in the first half of 2023. Stimulated by this, although the real estate industry remained sluggish, the sales and retail sales of domestic household air conditioners increased by 12.72% and 16% respectively, which was much higher than Gree’s overall income and air conditioning income.

  On a larger scale, Gree Electric, which lags behind the market, is also gradually falling behind in the world. According to the latest data, the threshold for entering the Fortune 500 in 2023 is 225.165 billion yuan, while Gree’s annual income in 2022 is 190.151 billion yuan, and there is still a certain gap. From 2019 to 2022, Gree Electric’s ranking in the Fortune 500 has also dropped from 414 to 487.

  In terms of revenue composition, Gree Electric’s revenue of 99.79 billion yuan in the first half of this year accounted for more than 1% of the business, including air-conditioning business that contributed 70% of the revenue, eco-agriculture and green energy services that contributed 2.92% of the revenue (mainly including buses and energy storage equipment under Gree Titanium), and small household appliances that contributed 2.18%.

  In addition, industrial products and other businesses contribute a total of 23.6% of revenue, which is actually quite eye-catching.

  A small number of industrial products mainly include compressors, motors, molds, etc., which belong to To B business, while other businesses mainly focus on purchasing upstream raw materials, mainly to play the role of bulk purchasing and lowering prices. After purchasing, they are sold to upstream processing enterprises, with a gross profit margin of only about 2%, which mainly plays a role in expanding income scale from a financial point of view.

  It is worth noting that although the overall income of Gree Electric reached a new high in the first half of 2023, if the "other businesses" that hardly make money are deducted, the total remaining income has not actually returned to the level of the first half of 2019, and the income from air conditioning business alone is even worse than that in 2018 and 2019.

  In addition to self-comparison, we can better understand what such data means by horizontally comparing Gree Electric with its old rival Midea Group. In the first half of 2023, Gree lost 98.006 billion yuan compared with Midea Group’s total revenue of 197.796 billion yuan.

  Fairer, if the "other income" of the two companies is deducted, Gree has fallen behind the United States by 100.969 billion yuan, which is the biggest gap in the main income of the two companies in history.

  So where is the difference between the 100 billion yuan?

  In terms of air-conditioning business, Gree has been at a disadvantage since 2020, and the gap has been widening in the past three years. The gap in the semi-annual report has expanded to 22 billion yuan; In the field of small household appliances, in the first half of 2023, Gree Electric’s income was only 2.177 billion yuan, while Midea Group’s income was 30 times higher than that of 68.136 billion yuan.

  In addition to home appliances, Gree Electric’s industrial products, green energy and smart equipment businesses generated a total revenue of 8.7 billion yuan in the first half of 2023, which is about half of the revenue of Midea Group’s robots and automation systems.

  It is worth noting that both companies are making efforts in the automation and intelligent production of To B, but the paths are different.

  Judging from the semi-annual report, Gree Electric emphasized the technology and quality of core components such as compressors (core devices of air conditioners) and motors (power sources of electrical appliances), but Midea Group emphasized the complete solutions for different scenarios in the fields of medical care, entertainment and consumption.

  If we distinguish between domestic and foreign income, after deducting "other business", Gree Electric’s domestic income actually lagged behind that of the United States 10 years ago, but the gap was small. Until 2023, the gap in the semi-annual report has expanded to 47.5 billion yuan, the highest in the past years, equivalent to 59% of Gree’s only beauty.

  The bigger gap is overseas income. The gap between the two has expanded from 18.5 billion yuan in the first half of 2014 to 67.7 billion yuan in the first half of 2023. Gree’s current overseas income is only equivalent to 16% of Midea Group.

  At least in terms of scale, Gree Electric has indeed fallen behind Midea Group in terms of air conditioning, small household appliances and diversified businesses, and the gap has also reached a new height.

  "Sequela" of Dealer’s Rebellion

  In addition to the overall performance, a series of subtle changes can be seen in the semi-annual report in 2023, which may be related to the "rebellion" of some dealers in Gree Electric last year.

  In the first half of 2023, the sales expenses in Gree Electric increased by 71.01% year-on-year. The semi-annual report showed that it was mainly due to the increase in product installation and maintenance fees, but the air-conditioning revenue in the current period only increased by 1.82% year-on-year, which was in sharp contrast.

  Although in absolute terms, the sales expenses of 8.41 billion yuan in the first half of the year are not the highest in the semi-annual reports over the years, it is the first time to look through the financial reports over the years, like in the first half of 2023, because of the installation and maintenance costs, the sales expenses have risen sharply.

  As a leader in the field of air conditioning, the probability of a sudden surge in maintenance costs due to quality problems in the first half of the year is not great, so it is more likely that the installation costs have increased substantially. But why did the air conditioner sell less than 2% more, and the sales cost rose by 71% because of the installation cost?

  In fact, the after-sales business of air conditioners has always been the responsibility of distributors all over the country. They also manage the air conditioner sales business and after-sales business including installation and maintenance in the corresponding areas. When installation services occur, the distributors will charge certain fees from the air conditioner manufacturers, and they will also charge customers aerial work fees, material fees and so on according to the situation.

  In September, 2022, Gree fell out with dealers in Hebei, who published a Notice, describing a series of inside information that Zhuhai Gree headquarters shut down the after-sales service management authority of Hebei Gree Company, and after Gree Zhuhai Hengge took over the after-sales service in this area, it proposed sales performance tasks for maintenance points, changed the preferential policies that Hebei Gree used to provide such as free overhead fees and free punching fees, and so on.

  After the two parties parted ways, the new distributor that Gree Electric was looking for in Hebei surfaced-Eye-searching showed that Gree Zhuhai Hengge Digital Technology Co., Ltd. mentioned in the Notice was previously owned by Zhuhai Hengge Trading and Jiangsu Saifu Green Food Development Co., Ltd., but the latter withdrew in May this year and Xiamen Saifu Trading Co., Ltd. became the new shareholder.

  It is noteworthy that Liu Qiangdong and ZhangZetian once appeared among the shareholders of Jiangsu Saif Green Food, but they withdrew from the shareholders in 2020. The legal representative of Xiamen Saif Trade, the new shareholder, is Zuo Yujie, just like Jiangsu Saif Green Food.

  According to the public information, Zuo Yujie has a close relationship with JD.COM. He used to work in JD.COM and still serves as the chairman of Runjing Information Technology Co., Ltd., which is the operator of JD.COM Wine World, and JD.COM Wine World is an omni-channel wine retail enterprise invested by JD.COM.

  In addition to the 71% increase in sales expenses, the contractual liabilities of Gree Electric (that is, the advance payment paid by dealers) rose by 79.7% to 28.972 billion yuan at the end of June 2023, while the operating cash inflow increased by 40% to 127.9 billion yuan year-on-year. It can be considered that the changes in important distribution channels have brought a series of effects, that is, new dealers have large-scale purchase demand, which brings considerable cash flow and contractual liabilities, and at the same time corresponds to the regional after-sales service system.

  In addition, considering the above indicators comprehensively, there is another possibility, that is, delaying the recognition of income and recognizing expenses in advance.

  In this case, a considerable part of the goods have been sent to the dealers, and the payment has been received, and the installation has been completed after the sales by the dealers. However, Gree Electric did not settle this part of the payment with the dealers for some reason, which led to the fact that it is still reflected in the books as contract liabilities rather than income. However, the installation expenses that have occurred have already been reflected in the sales expenses because they need to be included in the corresponding period, which leads to a huge difference between the increase of income and sales expenses.

  In either case, the high probability is related to the change of dealers, and it can also be regarded as the sequela of the "rebellion" of important dealers in Gree Electric in 2022.

  Gree still has its own advantages.

  Even if the overall performance lags behind Midea Group, many indicators in the 2023 semi-annual report are affected by changes in dealers, but from many data, Gree still has its own advantages.

  The first is ample cash in the account.

  At the end of June, 2023, Gree’s book cash and wealth management reached about 200 billion yuan, more than all the cash and wealth management on the books of Midea and Haier combined, but it should also be noted that 64.219 billion yuan of them were restricted funds.

  At the same time, the gross profit margin of Gree Electric’s air-conditioning business returned to a high level of 35.69% in the first half of 2023. In the same period, Midea Group’s air-conditioning gross profit margin was only 23.29%, while Haier Zhijia’s was 28.62%, which was related to Gree’s greater focus on air-conditioning, which led to higher overall asset operation efficiency, as well as a certain cost advantage gained by centralized procurement of raw materials, which was of course a direct manifestation of its brand premium.

  If we compare the per capita income and per capita profit, Gree Electric will be the highest in 2022. Because of this, although the total revenue of Gree Electric and Midea Group in the first half of the year is nearly 100 billion yuan, the difference in net profit is only about 6 billion yuan. Haier Zhijia, whose income is 32% higher than that of Gree Electric, has a net profit of only 73% of that of Gree Electric.

  These all point to one of Gree Electric’s greatest advantages-that is, it can earn more money with higher efficiency in the established field of air-conditioning business.

  However, the capital market of "voting with your feet" only gives Gree Electric about half of the current market value of Midea Group, which shows that it is not enough to have a strong ability to make money in one field, and the scale of revenue is also very important.

  In contrast, Midea Group seems to have chosen another path.

  Ten years ago, Midea Group began to lay out multi-category household appliances and overseas business. Although at a certain stage, the product lines were messy and redundant, it could be improved through necessary simplification and transformation. The longer-term significance lies in broadening the possibilities and having a greater first-Mover advantage in related tracks. Especially when the external environment changes, such advantages may bring subversive development.

  It’s not that Gree Electric doesn’t want to embrace diversity and look for the second or even third curve, but the exploration in these years has not been smooth. Compared with the traditional thinking, the early smart phone project was flooded, but the unreliable Yinlong was chosen for the new energy grand track, and the small household appliances business was slow to progress because it entered too late, not to mention the overseas market that could not open the situation by adopting conservative strategies.

  Interestingly, just like Midea Group, which has developed a number of business segments as the driving force for subsequent growth, He Xiangjian also retired early and chose Fang Hongbo as his successor. On the other hand, in Gree Electric, the issue of successor has been unresolved, and 69-year-old Dong Mingzhu is still closely bound with brand IP and active in front of the stage.

  The difference between the two can also be seen from the age of management. The average age of 16 Dong Jiangao in Gree Electric (one of whom has no information) is 57 years old, and only one of them, Dong Mingzhu, has an annual salary of more than 5 million yuan, with a salary of 11.42 million yuan in 2022.

  In contrast, the average age of the 22 directors of Midea Group is 50 years old, and 8 of them earn more than 5 million yuan a year. Among them, the chairman Fang Hongbo earned 11.3 million yuan in 2022, while the average age of the 21 directors of Haier Zhijia is 52 years old, and no one earns more than 5 million yuan a year.

  Even if we only consider the air-conditioning business, it is not difficult for Gree Electric to maintain single-digit growth, and it is understandable to describe it as a relatively stable and solid manufacturing industry. However, in order to break through the existing situation and catch up with the rhythm of the times again, Gree obviously has to continue to look for its own possibilities.

Exposing Two Deep Problems: Follow-up Interpretation of Baojun 560 Incident

  [car home Industry] (|), a model that stopped production for more than two years and was gradually forgotten by the market, has delivered over 610,000 vehicles in the past three years from its listing in July 2015 to its withdrawal from the historical stage in April 2018. However, 19,680 vehicles with 6-speed DCT gearboxes have been repeatedly complained by users due to quality defects, which has become a hard stone for SAIC-GM-Wuling. Today, this stone has been moved to CCTV’s "March 15th Party" in 2020. This endless complaint incident no longer reflects the problem of a certain car company, and there is a deeper "cause" behind it …

Home of the car

■ Special policies to protect users’ interests should be introduced as soon as possible.

  "It’s quite unexpected to be exposed again." "Wuling used to be a cost-effective company and always wanted to seek a breakthrough." "They all follow the process, and maybe the technology is not good." When communicating with many industry experts, we got such a reply, including the relevant R&D personnel of SAIC-GM-Wuling.

  Baojun is the first time to board the "3.15 party", but the 6DCT problem about Baojun 560 is not the first time to be exposed by the media. In more than a year after the production of this model was stopped, many local media and TV stations have reported on this matter. Baojun officials are also very concerned, and on June 5, 2019, 19,680 models of 2017 Baojun 560 DCT were recalled because of the calibration problem of engine control module (ECU) software. Baojun upgraded the ECU software for users free of charge and replaced the gearbox clutch damping module.

SAIC-GM-Wuling Baojun 560 2017 1.5T DCT flagship model with 7 seats.

"Baojun 560 2017 1.5T DCT flagship model"

  The calibration matching of power and transmission system is the problem. It is reported that these cars use a 6-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox code-named DCT360, using pre-engagement technology and dual-clutch adaptive control technology from Borgwarner. Although Baojun engineers have made great efforts on the shifting logic of the transmission, the vehicle still has problems. There are also 20,406 2018 Baojun 530 DCT models and 12,252 2017 Baojun 730 DCT models with the same problem, all of which have been recalled.

  Generally speaking, the vehicles that have been recalled have determined the solution to the problem. However, in this CCTV report, after the manufacturer recalled Baojun 560 for maintenance, some car owners reported that the problem had not been cured. According to the latest statement of SAIC-GM-Wuling, "a special investigation team has been set up to be responsible for the product quality problems encountered by users at all costs". According to the feedback from some users, at present, manufacturers still register and maintain according to the recall process, and there is no new unified solution.

  Automatic gearbox and power matching work is not a simple matter, which is also the development difficulty of the whole domestic automobile industry. However, it is unexpected that many related problems appear after the new car goes on the market, and it can not be solved quickly in a short time. It is reported that a large-scale recall will cost hundreds of millions of yuan or even more than 1 billion yuan, and the recall processing will take several months or even longer.

Home of the car

  During the exchange, some people in the industry suggested that SAIC-GM-Wuling should introduce an appropriate extended warranty policy according to users’ demands, and provide an excellent policy for Baojun 560 DCT owners to replace other Baojun models, in view of the huge operating pressure of the current automobile industry and the main factors such as the long-term suspension of production of Baojun 560 and the lack of 6DCT market position and its replacement by new products. At the same time, the problem of engine control module software calibration encountered by this car is discussed as a long-term research topic to avoid similar problems from happening again in new models.

■ Expose the deep problems of the two industries.

  The 6DCT problem of Baojun 560 is exposed again, which also reflects two deeper problems, and this is not a matter of SAIC-GM-Wuling, but the deep "cause" of the whole China automobile industry.

  First, the supervision of automobile recall needs to be tightened, and public supervision should be strengthened.

  "No recall notice was received!" "How many old cars can be recalled smoothly?" "Will the recall definitely solve the hidden danger?" Similar user questions are common in previous car recalls. This time, the public is still not clear about the overall recall progress and maintenance effect evaluation of nearly 20,000 Baojun 560 vehicles, which has led to the continuous amplification of cases such as "adverse recall and maintenance".

  According to the implementation measures of the regulations on the recall management of defective automobile products, "producers shall submit a recall periodic report to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine every three months from the date of implementation of the recall. If AQSIQ has special requirements, the producer shall submit them as required. The producer shall submit a recall summary report to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine within 15 working days after completing the recall plan. " However, reports like this are almost never made public, and the media rarely follow them up.

Home of the car

  An anonymous senior supplier of automobile gearbox parts believes that "the recall will make car companies and suppliers pay a huge price. Some serious recalls can lead to huge losses of enterprises. The state has supervision over the recall progress, but it still cannot completely rule out the possibility of the recall subject exploiting legal loopholes." Whether the state needs to further introduce stricter policies on recall supervision and strengthen public supervision is worth exploring in the industry.

  Ye Shengji, chief engineer and deputy secretary-general of China Automobile Industry Association, told car home that some car companies voluntarily recalled, but if the companies failed to fulfill this responsibility and evade the recall, the regulatory authorities would intervene, and if the recall measures could not effectively eliminate the product defects, the producers would be required to carry out the recall again or take other corresponding remedial measures.

  Second, the research and development, production and assembly adjustment of automatic gearbox are still industrial problems.

  In recent ten years, the domestic automobile industry has been in a weak position in the field of automatic transmission for a long time. Not only local enterprises, but also joint ventures have many problems in cost control and matching research and development of automatic transmission products for low-end models. Obviously, the problem of Baojun 560 is not a case in the field of automatic transmission. SAIC-GM-Wuling, as a joint venture with SAIC and GM as the main shareholders, has perfect upstream industry supply capacity. The key components of Baojun 560 are from well-known suppliers at home and abroad, including Nexter’s EPS, Autoliv’s ESC, Aisin’s manual gearbox, Baosteel’s vehicle steel, one-button start and keyless entry in mainland China, and United Electronics’ body control module assembly.

SAIC-GM-Wuling Baojun 560 2017 1.5T DCT flagship model

  On July 18th, 2015, Baojun 560, the first "big household SUV" of SAIC-GM-Wuling, was officially launched. The configuration of all manual gears and the top price of less than 90,000 made this SUV quickly open to the market, and once rushed to the second place in the sales list of compact SUVs, but Baojun needed to break through to the high end. In 2016, Baojun first tried the 5-speed AMT gearbox from Aisin. Unfortunately, 12,485 2016 Baojun 560 AMT models were recalled due to poor contact of the terminal of the gearbox sensor harness connector. On the other hand, DCT360 developed by SAIC Transmission and Borg Warner began to be matched with Baojun 560, but in the end it could not escape the fate of recall.

  Nowadays, Baojun brand has taken the CVT gearbox which can simulate 8 gears as the main automatic transmission configuration. In fact, the DCT360 and DCT250 of SAIC Transmission are products developed and promoted in the early stage. This year, SAIC Transmission has launched a new generation of wet medium-torque dual-clutch gearbox DCT280, which matches many new cars of Roewe and MG.

Home of the car

  Looking back at the whole automobile industry, the local automatic transmission enterprises have been in the process of following and exploring. Although domestic enterprises such as SAIC Transmission, Sheng Rui Transmission, Honeycomb Yichuang, Wan Liyang and Dongan Automobile Development have made breakthroughs in DCT, CVT and AT automatic transmission, the local supply capacity of the upstream components of the industry is only 21%, mostly housings and synchronizers, while key components such as CVT steel belt, dual clutch module and ECU control module are still occupied by foreign companies. There is also a big gap in the experience and accumulation of domestic enterprises in vehicle powertrain integration.

  Xu Xiangyang, executive deputy director of the National Passenger Car Automatic Transmission Engineering Technology Research Center, said in an interview with the media that many domestic vehicle companies do not have automatic gearbox matching and calibration technology, and the matching and calibration of automatic gearboxes are mostly dominated by suppliers, so the level of transmission companies largely determines the quality level of automatic gearboxes on the whole vehicle. Vehicle companies may not have their own independent automatic transmission suppliers, but they must have corresponding matching and calibration technologies, core control strategies and quality control capabilities for suppliers, so as to avoid similar problems from happening again.

Editor’s comments:

  When Baojun 560 officially stopped production, there were a lot of doubts in the industry, and of course there were regrets, but the rapidly changing market forced Baojun to make this decision as soon as possible. In 2017, compared with competing products Chuanqi GS4 and Haval H6, Baojun 560 was difficult to make new breakthroughs in terms of sales volume and technical advantages, so Baojun 530 became an alternative model.

  This incident is a huge product crisis that Baojun brand has to deal with, and it is a brand crisis that needs the management of the enterprise to actively respond to the whole line of sales and after-sales. Regardless of whether the car has been discontinued, car companies should raise the interests of consumers to a new height. What is the core of brand power? The recognition of consumers is the basis for the sustainable development of enterprises. If a solid user base is not established, how can we save users only by upgrading products? If you are the owner of Baojun 560 DCT, how do you want to communicate with the enterprise? What kind of compensation do you want? Let’s leave a message! (Text/car home Liu Honglong)

"Huawei’s most leading, innovative and subversive products are coming! This is an epoch-making product that others think of but can’t do. After five years of persistence and investment, we have turned science fiction into reality. " Yu Chengdong refers to this product or Huawei’s upcoming release of the world’s first three-fold screen mass-produced mobile phone-Mate XT Extraordinary Master.

According to the official warm-up video, the back panel design of Mate XT extraordinary master mobile phone is close to that of Mate 60 RS extraordinary master. The whole module is black, surrounded by a metallic decorative frame, and a polygonal camera module is placed behind it. The back shell of the fuselage is made of plain leather, and a vertical metallic "HUAWEI ULTIMATE DESIGN" logo can be seen below the camera module.

The mass production of the extraordinary masters of Mate XT has triggered domestic mobile phone manufacturers to follow suit. Known as the "King of Africa", Chuanyin is the first Huawei to release PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2, a three-fold screen mobile phone, but this model is still a prototype. There is no public statement about when to realize global mass production.

Zhao Ming, CEO of Glory, also pointed out that Glory has a layout in technologies such as 30% discount and scroll. Although the technology is ready, the specific release time depends on the market reaction. From the supply chain, Xiaomi is developing a 30% discount mobile phone, which is expected to appear in the form of a physical model or prototype at the Mobile World Congress in February 2025.

Different from the development of large folding screen and small folding screen to multi-folding screen in China, Samsung is developing a rollable mobile phone. Korean media Business Post reported that Samsung recently applied for a patent for a rollable display for smart devices.

According to foreign media Patently Apple, Samsung applied for the patent of electronic device with rollable display in Europe, with the patent number of 20240281093. The rollable display can be simply understood as a common "rolling gate" in life. Some screens are rolled inward for storage, and larger screens are pulled out when necessary.

Compared with folding screen displays, rollable displays need higher-end technical support. Overseas media predict that commercial rollable mobile phones may not appear until after 2027 due to the high technical difficulty of rollable phones.

And considering that Samsung Galaxy Z Fold has spent 11 years from development to listing, it means that Samsung’s rollable mobile phone may have a longer time to market.

Although compared with the rollable mobile phone, the technical difficulty of the three-fold screen mobile phone is reduced and the commercialization may be higher. However, due to the disadvantages of price, after-sales price, durability, versatility, and scenes, it is still open to question whether the three-fold screen mobile phone can achieve substantial growth in the short term.

Since June 2018, Rouyu Technology has taken the lead in Huawei and Samsung, taking the lead in releasing the world’s first foldable flexible screen mobile phone FlexPai. In the following years, in addition to Apple, major mobile phone manufacturers have released related folding screen models, and the shipments of larger screen, lighter and thinner folding screen mobile phones have been increasing.

Counterpoint data shows that in 2024, Q2 global folding screen mobile phone shipments increased by 48% year-on-year, and Latin America’s growth rate reached 450% due to its relatively low base. Glory Magic V2 replaced Samsung to win the title of folding screen mobile phone in Western Europe in this quarter, relying on a thinner body.

Under the high growth, it is still difficult to hide several realities of the folding screen mobile phone market: First, the problem of folding screen hinge crease still exists. On the JD.COM platform, many manufacturers’ folding screen mobile phones have bad reviews related to hinges; Second, the high maintenance cost, Huawei Pocket2 to replace the new screen price of about 3000 yuan. If the original old parts can be recovered for free, the cost will be more than 2000 yuan, which is enough for consumers to buy brand-new machines.

Third, the development path of consumer electronic products is probably as follows: manufacturers’ shipments increase → dilute manufacturers’ R&D costs and after-sales costs and supply chain manufacturers’ costs → lower prices to drive shipments increase → continue to dilute costs, and the yield rate continues to increase → continue to drive sales. The traditional large bar mobile phone has grown up according to this path.

If the folding screen mobile phone wants to realize this path, it still faces a lot of resistance. Huang Tao, vice president of vivo products, said that overcoming various technical problems requires manufacturers and suppliers to constantly promote ripening. Under the current situation that the total amount is not large enough, the overall difficulty of promoting things is relatively large.

Based on this, it is difficult for high-priced folding screens to enter the mainstream mass market and remain a niche market in the short term.

Trend Force Jibang Consulting data shows that in 2023, the global shipment of folding screen mobile phones was 15.9 million, accounting for about 1.4% of the total smartphone market. It will grow to 17.7 million in 2024, but the proportion will only increase by 1.5%.

If the above problems are put on a three-fold screen mobile phone, the problems may be more prominent. On the one hand, in order to ensure the user experience, the three-folding screen mobile phone pursues thinness more than the big folding screen and the small folding screen.

For example, when the prototype of a three-fold mobile phone is folded, the thickness of the whole machine is 11mm, which is almost close to the thickness limit of a three-fold screen mobile phone in terms of the thickness of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Huawei Mate X5 and Glory Magic V3.

In order to achieve thinness and thinness, three folding screens need to use flexible OLED screens and hinges with longer life at the same time, and demand higher yield, cost and income of supply chain manufacturers.

It is reported that Phantom Ultimate 2 prototype can be folded zigzag through two sets of hinges. Officials say that its rotating shaft can withstand up to 300,000 folds and has a high strength of 2100MPa. Huawei’s 30% mobile phone consists of a double hinge structure folded inside and outside, which requires high flexibility, durability and hinge strength of the display.

At present, the core problem of hinges is the low yield. According to the relevant research report of Shanxi Securities, the median yield of hinges in the industry is about 50%-60%, which is the biggest threshold for the assembly of folding screen panels. It is bound to be more difficult to use the three-fold mobile phone panel with double hinge structure.

In addition to the hinge problem, the chip is also a big problem. These two problems or the supply chain still have shortcomings.

Citic Construction’s related research report mentioned that the triple-folding model is a brand-new folding form, which still poses great challenges to the supply chain. If the supply chain delivery capacity cannot meet the demand, the shipment of Huawei’s triple-folding model may be less than expected.

The yield of the upstream supply chain is low and the technology is immature. Huawei needs to ensure the normal profits of dealers. The supply chain estimates that the price of Huawei’s three-fold screen may be as high as 20,000 yuan.

If you refer to the screen maintenance cost of Pocket2, the maintenance cost of the three-fold screen will only be higher. In other words, the purchase cost is superimposed on the possible maintenance cost, and the use cost of Mate XT extraordinary master is at least 20,000 yuan.

However, whether it was the hot sale of Mate60 in the market last year, the out-of-stock caused dealers and scalpers to eat, or the sales volume of Nova Flip exceeded 45,000 units in 72 hours, which increased by 85% year-on-year.

Whether the shipment of Mate X5 series is more than 4.5 times higher than that of X3, or the upcoming Mate XT Extraordinary Master takes the world’s first mass-produced three-fold screen mobile phone as a selling point, scalpers are speculating the Mate XT Extraordinary Master at a sky-high price.

On salted fish, the price of Mate XT has reached 50,000-60,000, and the price given by some sellers is as high as 100,000, and the premium rate is close to 5 times.

The extraordinary master of Mate XT, who is positioned in the ultra-high-end business market, is responsible for Huawei’s impact on the higher end. On the one hand, Huawei’s existing production capacity cannot achieve large-scale global supply, and more high-end products need to be launched to continuously improve revenue and profits; On the other hand, some dealers revealed that Huawei’s TOC business has changed from selling goods to operating customers, which means that Huawei wants to get rid of the shackles of the original stores and change from sitting in a business to a merchant. It also means that Huawei’s integrated business is also fully adjusted to high-end.

?

It is undeniable that the global mass production of Huawei MateXT three-fold screen mobile phone shows the comprehensive technical strength of Huawei and supply chain manufacturers.

According to market rumors, the panel supplier of Huawei’s three folding screens is BOE. As early as 2022, BOE has announced the successful development of F-OLED flexible N-shaped folding display technology, which can realize internal and external folding simultaneously. The water-drop folding life of inward folding R3 is 200,000 times, and that of outward folding R5 is 100,000 times.

If BOE officially supplies Huawei, the expected service life will be further improved, which means that the comprehensive technical strength of domestic panel manufacturers may be able to compete with SDC, the originator of folding screen panels.

It is still open to question whether the extraordinary master MateXT can provoke Huawei’s high-end tasks. In addition to the supply chain problem, Li Nan, president of Meizu, publicly criticized Huawei’s three-fold screen for being 10mm thick, which was not practical. And the design and technology began to pay attention to X grid instead of talking about cost performance. This is a very small number of middle-aged men who are not poor in money and have serious and advanced fun. The implication is that there are too few consumers who are willing to pay for Huawei’s Mate XT of more than 20,000 yuan.

In addition, it is urgent to answer several key questions to the market after the three-folding-screen mobile phone is really listed in a large area, which is expected to drive the manufacturers to increase their shipments and the relevant supply chain manufacturers to benefit. That is: compared with the existing consumer electronics, what is the core advantage of triple folding? Or what kind of differentiated experience can a three-fold mobile phone with a price of more than 20,000 yuan bring to consumers?

Manufacturers focus on two forms of triple-fold exposure. First, it is unfolded from the triple-fold used by Yu Chengdong in the engine room and is close to the size of a tablet computer. The message list is displayed on the left side of the screen, and other split-screen browsing contents seem to be displayed on the middle and right side of the screen. After the real launch, there may be a new design and planning in the split-screen operation, and the use scenarios of the overall equipment are expected to be more than the existing folding screen equipment.

The other is the "tent mode" under the expansion of Phantom Ultimate 2, where users can operate different pages by touching the pen. Although the overall operation is similar to that of a tablet computer, the other screen is idle.

Source: Voice official

Zhang Nan (pseudonym), a consumer from Fuyang, Anhui Province, told DoNews that he personally thought that the three-fold screen was a little tasteless, and compared with the traditional straight mobile phone, it had no advantages in maintenance cost, portability and price. Compared with tablet, the game screen is not as big as tablet, and the whole operation experience is not as good as tablet.

Compared with a business office computer, it is more expensive for me and my colleagues to get used to Apple or Microsoft’s operating system than a high-profile business office computer. Compared with the big folding screen, I don’t need it for my daily business and business socialization. If you simply meet the entertainment needs and pursue a big screen experience, why not buy a large-size TV or projector directly?

The same feeling as Zhang Nan is also Hu Yang (a pseudonym) who sells a mobile phone in Zhoukou, Henan Province. Hu Yang said that many customers he comes into contact with every day pay more attention to the configuration of mobile phones and the problem of jamming, and pay limited attention to the screen. And the core functions of consumers using mobile phones are games, payment, short videos and social interaction, and some consumers will make adjustments according to their occupation and personal habits. At present, the function of smart phones is not insufficient, but a serious surplus.

As Hu Yang said, since 2024, in addition to Apple, major mobile phone manufacturers have launched AI mobile phones. And in order to meet the needs of policy supervision, domestic mobile phones seek cooperation from overseas big models, and overseas mobile phone manufacturers seek cooperation from domestic big model manufacturers.

However, Canalys reports that consumers who pay attention to AI mobile phones can be divided into four categories: technology enthusiasts, value-maximizers, pragmatists and skeptics.

Among them, pragmatists account for the largest proportion of 67.9%. At present, the real AI mobile phone buyers on the market are technology enthusiasts. It is estimated that the market will wait until 2025 or 2026, and those who pursue value maximization and pragmatists will pay for AI mobile phones, and the relevant supply chains will also target this group in advance.

Based on this, AI mobile phones currently have limited contribution to manufacturers’ shipments. According to Canalys data, global smartphone shipments in Q2 in 2024 only increased by 5% year-on-year, and most of them were contributed by markets in Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia and Latin America. If manufacturers continue to lower the price of AI mobile phones in order to hedge the research and development costs of AI big models, this means that it is difficult for three-fold screen mobile phones to sell AI.

In addition, with the consumer market paying more and more attention to the comprehensive cost performance, it is also difficult for the extraordinary masters of Mate XT to replicate the sales myths of Mate60, Nova Flip and Mate X5. Although the shortage of Mate60 provided the basis for the hot sales in the early stage of Pura 70, on the day of Pura 70 sales, the real-time search popularity of Meituan flash purchase directly increased by over 3600%. Cattle is a premium of 2000 yuan, and some popular colors are not available from stock.

However, if Pura 70 is put into a mobile phone with the same price, its overall cost-effective advantage is slightly insufficient compared with competing products. Based on this, the popularity of Pura 70 did not last long. Since July, its price has been reduced several times. With the increasing number of three-fold screen mobile phones sold by manufacturers in the future, what are the differentiated selling points that can be recognized by consumers? This is worth pondering by all manufacturers.

At present, mobile phone manufacturers are constantly rolling up big folds, small folds and triple folds, but traditional straight mobile phones still face many practical challenges if they want to grow more.

First, the problem of battery life. Zhang Wei (a pseudonym), a freight driver who has been engaged for many years, told us that the navigation function needs to be turned on during the whole process of the truck driver’s sports car, which requires high battery life of the mobile phone. In recent years, although many manufacturers of flagship machine have been purchased, the overall endurance is not good. After three or four hours of navigation, the power will soon drop from 80% to 20%. To make matters worse, in the hot summer, smartphones are not only slow, but sometimes they can’t be charged. Not only Android, but also the difficulty of low-temperature apples in winter has been criticized by many Apple users.

The second is the stuck problem of traditional straight board machine. According to the data of China Information and Communication Research Institute, in July this year, Apple’s market share in China has fallen to single-digit level, and the comprehensive proportion of Android mobile phone manufacturers has reached 90%.

However, Rong Qiang (a pseudonym), a salesman from an Apple store in Fuyang, Anhui Province, told us that many of the customers they come into daily contact with are because the Apple operating system is smoother than Android phones and is not stuck. Many old Apple users are not used to the Android operating system, or after using Android phones for a period of time, they continue to buy Apple. Even old Apple users who are highly concerned about cost performance will ask if there is an Apple II mobile phone in the store.

As Rong Qiang said, whether the black cat complaint involves the stuck Android phone, or the bad reviews of many manufacturers on the JD.COM platform can always see the stuck problem, or the second Apple phone accounts for a relatively large proportion, all of which explain the stuck problem or the problems that need to be solved and optimized constantly at present.

The third is the price issue that consumers are quite concerned about. With the increasingly fierce price war between JD.COM and Tmall, it is continuously impacting the price system of mobile phone manufacturers. Take this year’s 618 as an example. Starting from 0: 00 on May 20th, JD.COM successively removed the popular products of Redmi Turbo3 and K series for nearly five hours. In addition, several categories of mobile phone brands, such as OPPO, vivo, iQOO, Yijia and Glory, were also dropped by JD.COM.

The cause of the incident is that JD.COM and Tmall adopted the same price strategy. However, in order to expand the market share of 3C, Tmall added 100 yuan to the 88VIP discount on the basis of the original discount. JD.COM is a price-chasing Tmall, and under the business keys emphasized by Liu Qiangdong, such as improving efficiency, reducing costs and increasing efficiency, and focusing on pragmatism, mobile phone manufacturers are required to bear the subsidy price. Under the game between the two sides, the manufacturer’s model will be temporarily removed.

However, consumers will not pay attention to the tripartite game between JD.COM, Tmall and the brand, and the price reduction will still cause a lot of consumers’ dissatisfaction with backstab. On the black cat complaint platform, there are more than 4,000 complaints about the price reduction of mobile phones, covering multiple mobile phone brands. In other words, how to achieve a balance among channels, profits and consumer interests protection is one of the problems faced by brands.

Not only in the domestic market, India is regarded as one of the important growth markets overseas. Although the high temperature and rising prices have caused the demand in the Indian mobile phone market to stagnate, Counterpoint data shows that in the first half of 2024, India’s mobile phone shipments increased by 7.2% year-on-year to 69 million.

Although the average selling price has risen, consumer demand has continued to stagnate, but from January to June 2024, India’s smartphone shipments still reached an annual growth rate. Small-scale long-tail brands such as iQOO, Motorola, Nothing, and Poco, an independent brand of Xiaomi, have become the main kinetic energy to push up India’s annual growth rate for four consecutive quarters.

But whether India violated some visa regulations with Vivo and claimed to steal $13 billion from India. Either India has previously frozen Xiaomi’s assets of more than 600 million US dollars, or the Indian government’s procurement of GPU only allows domestic registered operators to bid, all of which indicate that domestic mobile phone manufacturers still need to break through many obstacles if they want to truly survive, gain a foothold and achieve greater growth in India.

There is nothing wrong with manufacturers’ rolling technology, and the process of rolling each other can also lower product prices and enhance domestic technical strength. However, if manufacturers want to rely on the three-fold screen to drive the sales explosion, there may be many problems to be solved.

Then we choose Toyota Willanda, which model is the most suitable for this car? What market reputation and complaint failures does it have in the market?

In terms of cost performance:

The official guide price of the 2.0-liter version of Willanda fuel is 173,800 to 235,800. At present, there are 6 models on the market. It is learned from the scene that the current discount for this car is 50,000 to 60,000, and the lowest naked car comes to 120,000. Its performance-to-price ratio is about 6,000 yuan cheaper than that of BYD Song PLUS DMi, and about 20,000 yuan cheaper than that of BYD Song PLUS DMi’s 112-kilometer cruising version. The official price of the oil-mixed version is 219,800 to 264,800, with a discount of 50,000 to 60,000.

Market word of mouth/failure:

What are the relevant market performances and word of mouth of Wilanda in the market?

Many of our car owners have reported that the whole fuel economy of this car is relatively good, the interior space is relatively large, the ride comfort is better, and the dynamic response will be more sensitive; However, many of our friends can’t accept the thin paint surface, the low-profile model configuration and the new car will have a certain odor.

In the market, the complaints of Wilanda are actually very few, which mainly involve some software failures, such as audio-visual system failures, vehicle interconnection failures and some sales promises not being fulfilled. In the three major parts, there are very few complaints about engine oil emulsification and engine oil increase.

Power performance and fuel economy:

A 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine is used to simulate a 10-speed CVT continuously variable gearbox with a maximum power of 171 horsepower and a maximum torque of 206 Nm. This powertrain is being used in many Toyota models, including, and, Rongfang and other models. The comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 6.4 liters, but the measured fuel consumption of the owner is only about 7.5 liters. The dual-engine hybrid version has a power of 2.5 liters, and the measured comprehensive fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 6.5 liters.

Depending on the individual’s car demand, the beggar version is recommended by the family (some can be installed if the configuration is not enough).

Maybach: A Legendary Journey of Classic Luxury

Maybach brand history

Maybach is a legendary German ultra-luxury car brand, originally founded in 1921 by Wilhelm Maybach and his son Karl Maybach. Maybach was once one of the most famous car manufacturers in Europe, earning a global reputation for its excellent craftsmanship and unique design. However, due to poor market performance, the Maybach series sedan was discontinued in 2013.

The relationship between Maybach and Mercedes-Benz

In 2014, Mercedes-Benz revived the Maybach brand and re-launched it as a premium sub-brand. The new Maybach models are based on development, thus lowering the barrier to entry for Maybach and giving more consumers the opportunity to experience the ultra-luxury brand.

Maybach Model Features

The Maybach model is characterized by its long wheelbase, luxurious interior and powerful powertrain. For example, the body size is very spacious, with a wheelbase of more than 3300 mm, providing an extremely comfortable ride space. For the interior, the Maybach uses top-quality materials such as leather and fine woodwork, as well as advanced technological features such as digital instrument cluster and multimedia entertainment system.

Power and performance
