Chapter 1274: A Threat from Mercedes
Han Xuan still doesn't know how much impact his joke about teasing Roland and others will have on Wuling Motors after it appears in the "European Times" tomorrow, and he didn't notice that there were reporters around him.
The bodyguards saw Pierre, but didn't think he was a threat, so they didn't warn him.
If the world develops like in the previous life, there may indeed be rich people who are bored and interested in the only "god car" that has fallen into France, and after buying it, remove the logo and install it on a Ferrari or McLaren.
This time, many Chinese cars came to the Paris Industrial Show, but most of them were the same as Wuling, just coming to rub a layer of gold, and they were not taken seriously at the auto show.
Speaking of China's domestic cars, there is a lot of sadness, blood and tears, neither the courage of India's Tata Group to spend $2.3 billion to acquire Jaguar Land Rover, nor the mature and advanced automobile industry system of European and American countries.
It is difficult to fight your way out, and even the domestic market is dominated by foreign companies, let alone break into the international market.
In Han Xuan's mind, a name called "Zotye" popped up, before the accident, this company was like ZARA in the automobile industry, it was shameless to like plagiarism, and they all copied hot-selling cars.
The technology of the foreign automobile industry has been ahead of China for many years, and the patent alliance barrier has already been established, and high-end talents are also in the hands of foreign cars and research institutes.
If Zotye can go to the end in plagiarism, continuously improve its own technology, and then gradually transform like Japanese car companies, maybe it will be able to break into a broad world......
I didn't stay in the Wuling exhibition area for a long time, and continued to move forward.
Benshamin put the receipt in his wallet, and the auto show lasted for a total of half a month, and he came to pick up the car at the end.
My head was hot just now, and now I feel that with a car of that shape, it is not good to drive into college, and I asked Han Xuanwuling if the car was really that powerful, and when I heard him definitely answer yes, I put my heart back in my stomach.
Muttering that when I have time, I will take the car to the Nürburgring in Germany and find someone to try racing the car.
When Han Xuan heard this, he silently added in his heart: "Pulling goods is really powerful."
As for drag racing...... Wait and eat the ashes, the speed of 518 kilometers per hour is not something anyone can run......"
Continue the tour.
A wide variety of concept cars and new cars come into view, and some of them are interesting ideas.
Ford, for example, launched a gullwing door SUV concept car that received unanimous praise on the outside, and the company's executives couldn't keep their mouths shut.
The concept car is a test of the waters, and if there are more people who like it, it will really start to develop, but the gullwing door will be canceled, because the cost of the gullwing door is much higher than that of ordinary doors, which will inevitably increase the price.
Now Jaguar and Land Rover are two different divisions, Jaguar belongs to Ford, and Land Rover belongs to the BMW Group, and in the previous life, it was merged into one division by Ford in order to bundle and sell.
This time, Jaguar launched a sedan XJ308, with a silver three-dimensional leopard at the front, a classic dark green body, illuminated by the white lights above, which looks very cool.
In addition, there is a Jaguar sports car F-Type is also very good, Han Xuan moved the mind of this British-style car company a few years ago, but unfortunately the Ford Group was unwilling to sell, so he turned to buy Maserati, which is similar to it.
In previous years, the automobile market has shrunk, and in recent years, there has been a trend of recovery, especially this year, the new car has improved significantly compared with previous years, which has made the exhibitors addicted.
Anya, who came to the auto show for the first time, also found it very interesting, looking around, occasionally looking at her watch, and seeing that it was still early before the car to return to the UK, which was reassuring.
When waiting for Secretary Dawson to buy a ticket before, she had already told Han Xuan that she was going to study at the Royal College of Art.
The Academy of Fine Arts of that institution is ranked among the top three in the world, and when she heard the good news, Han Xuan naturally wanted to congratulate her, and said that she would go to the UK to find her if she had the opportunity......
At this year's Paris Motor Show, the two car companies that attracted the most attention were Hans Automotive Group and Mercedes-Benz.
When Han Xuan came to the Mercedes-Benz exhibition area, his eyes were attracted by several cars on the booth, and he approached them to observe them carefully, not letting go of the front and back, left and right.
After reading it, his eyebrows gradually wrinkled, other car companies had reservations and did not dare to make too many changes to the previous generation models, and these Mercedes-Benz cars have already used the most cutting-edge technology.
Whether it is the appearance, or the configuration, on the basis of the previous generation to make a big leap, the shape and the beginning of the 21st century Mercedes-Benz models are relatively close, the display car is black, looks elegant and noble.
Han Xuan thought to himself, no wonder he and the executive of Kesten Miller focused on this company, these cars can indeed compete with the new cars of his own company.
The lowest price of the E-Series is just over $52,000, which is much lower than the Maserati President sedan and close to the highest-spec version of the Kylin sedan.
The price of the C series and the Kirin car is basically the same, but in terms of popularity, Mercedes-Benz is much higher than the Kirin, and its own company is at a disadvantage.
It has to be said that Mercedes-Benz's approach of drastically replacing the entire Mercedes-Benz model is dangerous, and if one is not careful, it will lose the reputation of old customers, but it still dares to do so.
Among the famous big car companies, only this brand is unruly, and it has attracted a lot of attention with its new cars, and even Basil and Garou can't help but praise it as cool.
Han Xuan finished comparing in his heart, and felt that his company's products had a slight advantage, not that the appearance and performance were inferior, but that the sales channels, fame, production capacity, product quantity, etc., could not compare with the old car company Daimler-Benz Group.
This is a congenital deficiency, which cannot be caught up for a while and a half, and it takes a long time to make up for it.
After going around a circle, when he was surprised to find that Mercedes-Benz did not release an SUV model car this time, Han Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and finally found some advantages......
Executive Officer Kodlin was present in person today, and as expected, he was warmly praised by reporters and visitors when he appeared, and he smiled from ear to ear as he listened to the interpreter.
Early this morning, he deliberately rushed to the exhibition area of Han's Automobile Group, stared at the new cars of Maserati and Kirin, sat and looked right, and when he saw the parameter table, he was so worried that he didn't eat lunch.
After the afternoon launch, when I found that my company's cars were also sought after by people, I regained my self-confidence and even said to be a little proud.
In Kodlin's opinion, Hans Group is simply not comparable to Daimler-Benz Group in other aspects other than automobiles, and it has won more than half of this race......
