AITO asks M5 to break 3000 in the first month.
(Observer News/Bathen Chow) On the evening of April 6, Xiaokang Co., Ltd. released the March production and sales express. On March 5th, the sales volume of AITO Qiaojie M5, which officially started to deliver cars to users, was 3,160, up by 1,310.71% year-on-year. In March, the output was 3,465 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 1,667.86%.
In April 2021, Huawei and Xiaokang Co., Ltd. officially announced cooperation at the Shanghai Auto Show. Xiaokang shares said that the company is not a Huawei foundry, and through cooperation, Xiaokang products entering Huawei channels will help reduce the investment in sales expenses in the early stage of Xiaokang; Huawei extracts the corresponding sales service fees by selling vehicles.
At the launch of Huawei’s new products in winter at the end of December last year, Yu Chengdong released the first intelligent car AITO Wenjie M5 equipped with HarmonyOS intelligent cockpit. This extended-range new energy vehicle has attracted attention from all walks of life since its release.
In addition to providing sales services for AITO’s M5, Huawei’s DriveONE pure electric drive Zengcheng platform, HarmonyOS intelligent cockpit, car central control chip, audio and other components also appeared on this vehicle.
Yu Chengdong is optimistic about the prospect of selling cars in Huawei’s retail stores. Huawei plans to sell cars in 1,000 stores by the end of 2022, and will challenge the goal of selling 300,000 cars annually, bringing 100 billion annual sales for cooperative car companies.
In addition to the M5, AITO will launch six new energy vehicles including medium and large six-seat SUVs this year.
At present, Xiaokang shares have obtained at least 10GWh of battery supply every year. Combined with the current products of Xiaokang shares (Sailis and AI Wenjie), it is estimated that the output of Xiaokang shares in 2022 will be at least 200,000 vehicles according to the calculation of 50kWh of bicycle power.
In terms of vehicle manufacturing, Xiaokang shares are still busy expanding production. In the first quarter of this year, Xiaokang shares raised 7.13 billion yuan in the A-share market, and invested in "Electric Vehicle Development and Product Platform Technology Upgrade Project", "Factory Intelligent and Electric Drive Production Line Construction Project", "User Center Construction Project" and supplementary working capital, among which "Factory Intelligent and Electric Drive Production Line Construction Project" has a designed annual production capacity of 100,000 units.
