Speaking repairer of new forces, most people may think of is Wei to car, car Weimaraner, Xiaopeng car, etc., in the large wave of new energy vehicles, there are a lot of companies to build cars, all exposure to the manufacture of new energy vehicles, but we are familiar with the repairer companies are often associated with the automotive industry or the automobile industry chain people or businesses, cooked I do not know, in the communications industry also has repairer of the new forces, such as ZTE.
Zhongxing Automobile Co., Ltd., ZTE smart acquisitions Zhuhai City-wide bus after Limited incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary in 2016, the company’s main business includes the development of new energy automotive design, manufacture and sale of intelligent cars driving, vehicle networking system development and application of construction and operation, will rely on a strong technical accumulation of ZTE’s 5G technology, wireless charging, networking, big data, cloud computing, etc., to create a smart city buses, layout unmanned areas.
form a chain closed loop
as a repairer of the new forces, ZTE smart car into the late innings, but after several years of development, ZTE smart car is already a reality in the industry chain more complete chain loop, a subsidiary of the company also covers the 5G, C-V2X technology, charging module technology move, battery research and development, autopilot platform, 5G car networking, intelligent manufacturing, the wisdom of the park and so on, is to build intelligent network UMC EMU.
At the same time, ZTE ZTE smart car project has a total investment of over one billion yuan, which also shows, as a manufacturer of electric vehicles in its operations and cost control, still have a good advantage, after all, date, located in Zhuhai Golden Bay Zhongxing new smart car production base put into operation, which has a research and development center, testing center, assembly, welding and painting workshop 3 large, U-shaped test track, with an annual new energy and medium-sized passenger cars up to 5000, regarded as a good manufacturer development.
can be said that this enterprise and make cars and other new forces compared to, do not have other advantages, but we may see that in 2018 data, this enterprise intoProduction of new energy bus has been on the list, behind Yutong, BYD, Nanjing Jinlong, ranked fourth.
from the start of commercial vehicles
In a sense point of view, ZTE create new energy electric bus can be considered a wise choice, the reason is that at the time, ZTE not have their own qualifications and repairer repairer factories, so that it does not start from passenger cars, but rather through the acquisition of Zhuhai City-wide bus Co., Ltd., obtained production qualification and bus manufacturing technology, and later check-in, doing things that will be widely ZTE bus existing products overall shift to new energy technology, and relying on existing resources Zhongxing automobile, the new positioning system-wide bus engaged in research and development of new energy bus, design, manufacturing, sales, as well as automatic driving and vehicle networking applications development and construction and operation.
From the current development trend, this move ZTE go fairly successful, after all, , urban public transport is still the largest new energy buses scenarios. At the same time, many areas have been proposed bus To fully replaced by the new energy targets, and as a leader in new energy sources, we know BYD is also doing the same thing, but, BYD electric vehicle footprint has been all over the world 6 continents, more than 50 countries and regions, more than 200 cities. This you can see, the prospects for electric passenger car market still has a larger market space
how to plan for the future of the brand
ZTE intelligent on their own advantages, but also fast build their own products, although late into the industry, but also in brand influence, supply chain resources, channel customer resources there is no obvious advantage, but we can see its output of electric buses is relatively simple, the cash flow the relatively abundant, so, in the current market, whether 5G intelligent network with buses, commuter autopilot autopilot BRT vehicles and other models, there is still a good space for development.
Thus, in the domestic market, ZTE smart car market will focus on the core of the Pearl River Delta, Guangdong and neighboring provinces radiation key markets . Founded three years, it has been expanded to Shenzhen, Zhuhai, GuangzhouState, Wuhan, Hainan and other markets, Zhuhai new energy bus market share of nearly 50 percentage. In the international market, ZTE and Britain’s largest bus manufacturer ADL cooperation, as of 2018, has delivered a total of 3500 double-decker bus, double-decker bus in Hong Kong accounted for 60 percentage of the market.
At present, ZTE smart car products of 6 to 12 meters of pure electric passenger car to achieve a full-line coverage. On the strength to build products, ZTE’s core technology is all-aluminum body and coating process, and VCU have independent intellectual property rights. Although ZTE ZTE’s self-study high-energy batteries, but the main supply of passenger cars, the battery used in passenger cars, mainly from Ningde era, supplier collaboration also includes other Nanya power, Cummins and so on.
in the future, ZTE will also actively promote hydrogen fuel car, automatic driving vehicles, systems development special purpose vehicles. Traditional energy vehicles is focusing overseas markets, based on adaptive development platform.
wrote at the end of the text
can be seen in the ranks of the repairer of the new forces, not all companies are so smooth, but not repairer origin ZTE current development relatively perfect, but still relatively intense competition in the market, so, for the repairer this matter, we can not make up premature conclusions.
As for the appliance industry of the United States, Oaks, Skyworth have invested heavily in the development of new energy vehicles, only Skyworth founder Stephen Wong-run Nanjing Jinlong bus can operate normally, although commercial vehicles and ZTE incoming count the more sensible choice, but there are still large uncertainties, so that the future can develop into what is still desirable to inspect the market.
