The Breakout Under "Internal Competition" Reveals the Truth Behind SAIC Volkswagen's "Shutdown" New Energy | Automobile | Truth

Release time:Apr 14, 2024 02:06 AM

Recently, a news about SAIC Volkswagen shutting down its first automobile factory has attracted a lot of attention. Due to the lack of understanding of the truth about the shutdown, many people have been misled, and seeing the word "shutdown" is full of concerns about the future of SAIC Volkswagen. After verification by our reporter and SAIC Volkswagen, the news of the closure of the first automobile factory is not true and is actually being returned to Anji Logistics.

In recent years, SAIC Volkswagen has actively promoted the development of new energy vehicles. Due to the scarcity of land resources in the Anting base, SAIC Volkswagen borrowed land from the original Anji Logistics to build a MEB new energy vehicle factory in 2018. In 2022, the company will return some of the land used by the first automobile factory to Anji Logistics as a replacement for the previous MEB factory. At the same time, Automobile Factory One will further expand its R&D center functions in the future, and the second phase of the R&D center located in Automobile Factory One has also been fully put into use. The original production of Polo and T-Cross models by Automobile Factory One will be transferred to the Yizheng factory for production, fully tapping into the potential of the Shanghai overseas base. After receiving relevant training, employees of Automobile Factory 1 have begun to continue supporting the production of MEB factory and other factories. This series of measures is an important part of the overall upgrading and transformation of SAIC Volkswagen, as well as the rational planning of its production layout for electric and gasoline vehicles.

Based on the rapid development of the domestic new energy vehicle market, SAIC Volkswagen actively caters to changes in market demand and adjusts the group's development strategy. SAIC Volkswagen invested 17 billion yuan to establish a Volkswagen ID exclusive MEB factory, which has a leading car manufacturing platform in its class. Since its launch, the newly built MEB factory at Anting Base has demonstrated advanced production levels and efficiency. This factory is specifically built by SAIC Volkswagen for the production of Volkswagen brand ID. series pure electric vehicles, achieving a highly intelligent and digital production mode.

Behind the breakthrough transformation lies the struggle for efficiency. In today's rapidly developing new energy vehicles, SAIC Volkswagen, as an established car company, is facing the urgency and pain of transformation. The first factory of SAIC Volkswagen Anting was built in 1984, with a planned annual production capacity of 160000 vehicles. It is mainly responsible for the production of small cars such as Volkswagen Polo, Skoda Octavia, and Touareg. With changes in market and consumer demand, the upgrading and renovation of SAIC Volkswagen Anting base has already been put on the agenda. For SAIC Volkswagen, on the one hand, while ensuring the main profit force of gasoline vehicles, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the new energy vehicle market. On the other hand, facing the strong attack of domestic brands, it is particularly necessary to pay attention to the efficiency and output of product research and development and production, and be able to respond quickly and produce based on the requirements of the Chinese market.

The breakthrough under high-pressure "internal competition" is a protracted battle, and how to deploy troops and win the key battle of old joint venture automobile enterprises actively transforming on the new energy track. We have seen the direction of progress and the determination to actively transform from SAIC Volkswagen. Fate is in one's own hands, and in the face of the ever-changing future, one must fight for oneself. After all, only by experiencing pain and completing transformation can we have a broader future.
