Chapter 897: Popular in Northern Europe, subverting everyone’s perception

The first quarter of 2014 was very busy.

The Malaysia Airlines incident is still a hot topic from time to time, but there is no final conclusion.

The conflict between polar bears and ermao has also become a topic of conversation among ordinary people after dinner. Everyone seems to want to criticize Fang Qiu and comment on their own opinions.

However, how to live daily life is still how to live.

In this quarter, in addition to Venus Technology and Nanshan Engine, companies in the Nanshan Group have brought a lot of surprises to everyone. Nanshan Automobile Group has also made outstanding achievements.

In particular, Future Auto has newly launched the Future S9, a disruptive electric sedan, this quarter, which has now been launched simultaneously around the world.

"Mr. Cao, our Future S9 set a new record in the past March, with domestic sales exceeding 3 units and foreign sales exceeding 3000 units. It is still improving."

"This result is already much better than the monthly sales of 10000 vehicles envisaged in our planning stage."

Zeng Tingting came over with a beaming face and reported to Cao Yang the results of Future Auto.

Xingchen Motors and Jaguar Land Rover have performed well over the years, and their performance last month was not bad either.

No matter which electric vehicle is produced by an automobile company, it is inevitable that there will be problems in this regard.

Cao Yang was also quite surprised by this result and said, "Has the monthly sales reached over 10,000 in foreign countries so quickly?"

Zeng Tingting's face was full of confidence.

There are even some countries in Northern Europe that are world-famous oil-producing countries. According to ordinary people's understanding, they should oppose the promotion of electric vehicles and fully support fuel vehicles.

As the first electric car under Nanshan Automobile Group, it still takes a high-end route and is equipped with the group's most advanced electrified equipment.

Northern Europe is a land of ice and snow.

"On the contrary, in places like Germany and France, the performance of the S9 is so-so."

But the price of the S9 is still about the same as the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class in many places.

A proper luxury car.

"I have confirmed it again and again. It is indeed over 10,000 per month."

But after checking it carefully and knowing that it was true, my mood was completely different.

Even the sales price abroad is not much different from the domestic sales price. In some markets, the selling price is even lower than that in China due to relatively low export tax rebates and import tariffs.

Now that it has been launched simultaneously around the world and has experienced a complete global sales month, this sales data is more convincing.

However, because the past has been very good, it did not bring any surprises to everyone.

"Currently, the Nordic market is the largest market for the S9 in the future. Sales there in March exceeded 3 units, which is equivalent to 6000% of our overseas market being contributed by several small Nordic countries."

Even with the hot sales of S9, Future Auto's position in the global electric vehicle market will become even stronger.

If you encounter severe cold, not only will the cruising range be greatly reduced, but the charging efficiency will also be reduced a lot, which will greatly affect the use experience.

When she just saw this data, she was full of doubts about it like Cao Yang.

“The main thing is which place sells the best?”

You know, here in China, electric vehicles definitely prefer warmer places.

There is currently no way for Future Auto's products to be sold in the United States, the world's second largest market. It can be said that the impact is still relatively large.

When Zeng Tingting said this, Cao Yang felt even weirder.

Because this car was only sold domestically at the earliest stage, it cannot represent everything for Nanshan Automobile Group, which takes an international route.

"Norway, for example, has abundant rainfall and abundant hydropower resources, which generates sufficient power supply."

She is the general manager of Future Auto. Although the S9 was designed by Cao Yang, a large part of the credit for its good sales will definitely be attributed to Zeng Tingting.

Under this circumstance, whether S9 can gain market recognition is a matter of great concern to everyone.

After hearing Pain's explanation, Cao Yang probably understood.

Cao Yang's question was naturally one that Zeng Tingting expected, so she gave the answer without any hesitation, saying: "Although it is cold and rich in oil resources in Northern Europe, clean electricity resources are also extremely rich. "

After all, it is a high-end electric car.

"At the same time, relevant departments have vigorously launched various preferential plans for electric vehicles. There are no tax fees for purchasing electric vehicles, and you can enjoy many discounts on parking and charging."

"Furthermore, although Norway is a major oil-producing country, the seventh largest in the world and the largest oil producer in Western Europe, Norway has the highest oil price in the world. The price of gasoline is generally around 16 yuan/liter. Compared with trams, the cost of use is Too high.”

"Under this background, our S9 sales in Northern Europe have completely exploded."

After all, as the share of electric vehicles increases, it means that the sales of fuel vehicles will decrease, and ultimately the demand for oil will also decrease.

At this time, Cao Yang was really interested and said: "Have you analyzed the specific reasons? Why is S9 so popular in Northern Europe?"

At least the price is that of a luxury car.

"Data shows that their power resources are about 80% hydropower and 20% wind power, both of which are clean energy."

However, there are still many questions in his mind, and he said: "Other models of Future Car have been sold in Europe before, but I haven't heard of any particularly outstanding performance in Northern Europe, right?"

This shouldn't be what those countries want to see, right?

But the result turned out to be completely different from what everyone imagined.

Future Car's S9 is different.

But to achieve such good results under such circumstances is beyond the expectations of many people.

Now the results for March are out, and they can be said to be very representative.

Although the S9 is currently Future Auto's best-performing sedan in all aspects, Future Auto has already had several SUV models sold around the world.

Therefore, it is normal for Cao Yang to have such questions.

"Previous Future Auto models performed well in Northern Europe, but they were just good."

"We focused our main efforts on conquering the French, German and English markets."

"In addition, the demand for large SUVs in Europe is not particularly strong, and consumers there still care about performance such as handling."

“The advantages of S9 are particularly obvious in this regard, so this time it completely exploded.”

These questions from Cao Yang were also the ones Zeng Tingting had doubts about before.

Now I am just re-explaining the doubts I have learned through my own investigation. Naturally, there is no problem.
